whos your favourite lyricist in your country whos around and kicking today?? i dont want any of this "Dylan" or "Lennon" or "Cohen" stuff because we all know their good. what songwriter hits the nail right on the head for you?

i say this because listening to the masses of Arctic Monkey's songs ive collected, i strikes me how Alex Turner conveys the realism of everyday existence in his words. so down to earth and very true. he has that special knack that the likes of Paul Weller, Ray Davies and Ian Brown all possess.

so yours?
