Mention of the ((YTMND)) fad.

I think that if we're going to have an article for this band, it should mention the use of "We Interrupt this Program" in the NEDM YTMND fad. There was brief mention of it, but it was removed with the explanation "nobody cares". Now, I want to ask you, fair Wikipedians, who here had even heard of this band before it was used in YTMNDs?--Agent Aquamarine 22:50, 29 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No one who visits this page cares about Coburn; I can promise you, the vast majority are here because of NEDM. As such, who Coburn is should be considered irrelevant, and replaced with a detailed description of the Happy Cat.

Well, I came to this page to hear more info about Coburn after the NEDM fad...I think it deserves a mention. Maplejet 01:56, 3 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

On that note. Why isn't there an article about NEDM?!

See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/NEDM for why it was deleted, and see Talk:NEDM for why it isn't being re-created. --Damian Yerrick (talk | stalk) 20:43, 3 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Autocchthony speaks: The Coburns were a 'lite' jazz band (trio or foursome) from the latest Fifties, or/and (early) Sixties. My uncle-by-marriage (my Aunt's husband) was the leader; he was Colin Burns [born Colin Pike] - hence the CoBurns. No idea where the 'Burns' came from for the stage name. He was a friend of the singer Sheila Southern, and performed in London and on cruise liners. We presume that he is now dead - having not heard from him for almost twenty years [and he being now about 85 - if still alive] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.157.223.75 (talk) 20:12, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Incredibly biased article

Look at some of the lines in this article: "their next song "We Interrupt This Programme" (Data/Great Stuff/Frontier) re-defined house music in 2005", "The sound crossed boundaries and borders becoming popular with DJ's and clubbers from almost every scene in dance", "Coburn's follow up single, the Moroder-esque "Give me love" (a loose cover of Donna Summer's Morodor-produced "I Feel Love") pummelled dance-floors around the world in 2006, and its flip, "Razorblade" also featuring the delicate Icelandic vocals of Heidrun (ex-Gloss, Cicada) has been released in June 2007, and has been described as "Kylie on acid"."

It sounds like it was written by a music review site. There are also no sources for anything in the article other than the YTMND reference. Needs a serious rewrite. 86.168.51.175 (talk) 00:41, 23 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
