I love this photograph.

It has to be one of my favourite Facebook finds.

    Nice man-boobs there! How could anyway put such an unflattering photo on Facebook? It seems Dr Muscat needs to change his PR company.

    It typifies Labour supporters’ mentality, lack of tact and dignity. This is a private photo which demeans an important public figure. They always put their foot in it.

    What’s happening in this pic? Is Joseph Muscat getting the guy’s autograph? Is this chap that famous? Surely Joe should be giving his autograph?

    The guy in the picture is none other than Fish, the ex-frontman of the band Marillion, and now a solo artist who spends a lot of time in Malta. So yes, (I presume) Muscat is asking for his autograph and not vice versa.

    Lyrics from Fish’s song called Freaks:

    “He said all the best freaks are here
    He said all the best freaks are here, please stop staring at me
    So I said all the best freaks are here
    All the best freaks are here, please stop staring at me”

    This song must have come to Fish’s mind when Joseph Muscat, who obviously wangled his way in on who knows what merit, appeared in front of him with a CD asking for an autograph.

    Maybe Fish is his muse?

    Market Square Hero written by Fish:

    I found smog at the end of my rainbow
    I found my thoughts shift slowly into phase
    Declared the constitution of the walkway
    I realise it’s time to plan the day

    I’m a Market Square hero gathering the storms to troop
    Cause I’m a Market Square hero speeding the beat of the street pulse
    Are you following me, are you following me?
    Well suffer my pretty warriors and follow me

    I am your Antichrist show me allegiance, Are you following me?
    I am your Antichrist pledge to me defiance, Are you following me?
    Suffer my pretty warriors, Suffer my fallen child, Are you following me?
    The time has come to conquer and I’ll provide your end
    We march

    I give peace signs when I wage war in the disco
    I’m the warrior in the ultra violet haze
    Armed with antisocial insecurity
    I plan the path of destiny from this maze

    @ Mandy Mallia

    His predecessors did not enjoy that good a reputation anyway. Muscat is just a faded carbon copy of Sant, still learning his trade and judging from his advice to Iceland and Malta, amply proves his lack of foresight. But even then, he was simply Sant’s puppet, and still is.

    One either has it or hasn’t and obviously Muscat doesn’t have it whether at 35 or 65. Age does not raise IQ.

    I have to say I’m impressed. Anyone who’s a fan of Fish gets my vote! (well perhaps not in an election…but you know what I mean).

    It seems like Muscat is getting autographs from “tal mittleclass”.
