WikipediaJ-Bo's crimes against music/humanity/decency/modesty/intelligence/logic almost go unbeaten. The man who once uttered the words, "Well, put it this way; compared to the Razorlight album Dylan is making the chips. I'm drinking champagne", has done little to distract the world and his wife from the arrogant, self-worshiping image that he has created for himself. Whether it's through claiming to be, "the best songwriter of generation", "a genius, musically, culturally, everything", or just plain old "f**king brilliant", this is a man who once turned up unannounced at SXSW whilst riding a Harley Davidson. The man then got dumped by Kirsten Dunst for riding said motorcycle through A HOUSE. The man whose solo album included such insightful song titles as 'Pan-European Supermodel Song' and 'Erotic Letter'. The man who once said that whales were more important than the people that died in 9/11... the list goes on. Razorlight started out as a reasonably promising, tuneful and exciting young indie band. But after three albums that, at best, were fit to soundtrack an Inbetweeners episode, Borrell's over-confidence had more than worn thin on the public, and it's no wonder that the rest of the band have all walked out over the years, while the aforementioned solo album sold a whopping 595 copies in its first week of sale. At least he's shown some self-awareness in recent years, saying, "I'm sure there were times when I was obnoxious. But that's rock'n'roll, you know?" Right.
