HUCKNALL: 'COWELL RUINED MUSIC'

British singer MICK HUCKNALL has blasted pop mogul and reality TV judge SIMON COWELL - insisting he has ruined music. The FAIRGROUND singer believes esteemed lyricists such as John Lennon and Bob Dylan would not have flourished if they began their careers in today's musical climate. He says, "Slimy (Cowell) has done a massive disservice to real artistic creativity. There's no space for people like Dylan, Lennon and the Stones in Slimy's world."
