You've hit the nail on the head, actually! I recall Jon saying in some obscure video (maybe one of the post-Zoo evening broadcasts) that he took a lot of his mannerisms and character concepts from kids. I always assumed that it was because children are, in their own way, our creations, learning how to be human.

This was the best ever SPG line up ever imo. The 'Jon' was the best mime/robot out of the three, he was more versatile and didn't stick to half a dozen 'stock moves like Spine and Rabbit seem to. The Spine is very good, but Rabbit is better at singing and banter I feel. It's such a shame Jon left as I feel he was the perfect foil between the two siblings and an essential part of the act, all his replacements have felt like just that a third member of an established team and their constant replacement seems to validate that. I know it sounds like I'm grousing and I probably am, but I wanted SPG to be a huge success and I still love them, but for the time being for me their best days are behind them. I hope they re-discover the old magic :)

@metalwox

Bands change... and in this case, they have become somewhat a success in their own way. Success doesnt happen overnight and im sure they have their reasons for not being as successful or big as YOU want them to be. People leave and move on with their lives. Bands change and evolve. The music they do now is no less great than back then. If youre a REAL fan, you accept them as they evolve. I mean hell, Rabbit did a very brace thing in the past few years by changing her charatcer to what she felt was the most true and honest to herself because she is transgender and is a beautiful woman. And the band accepted her for that and even encouraged her to be true to herself. THAT is beautiful. THAT is magic! The Jon leaving SPG had nothing to do with any decline in the quality of their act nor did the addition and depsrture of Hatchworth or the arrival of Zero. Just because they dont do the tricks you want them to do, as if theyre dogs you can call upon (which they arent), doesnt mean their best days are behind them. You try doing what they do for as long as they have and see if YOU dont change, especially with fickle fans who demand they dance like the monkeys they see them as. Betacha you would change to be true to yourself too. Or maybe not since some people just dont change no matter how necessary.

I must admit: I've felt the same. Ironically, when "Quintessential" came out, I applauded that Sam had finally found his musical niche in the group, only to have him leave a few scant weeks later (though, I suspect he felt disheartened after struggling for so long, and appreciate that he wanted to touch on more mature subject matter in his solo stuff). Zero seemed to be a much better fit, right from the time he joined (though I suspect they intended him to be a fourth 'bot well before his official appearance, and got some practice in). He nailed the pantomime in Marshmallow World, and his more bluesy style seems to be re-balancing the overabundance of synth that plagued the band through "MK III" and "Vice Quadrant." Plus, Michael Reed is back! That should help the depth of their sound as well. On the whole, the current line-up gives me hope for the band as a unit, and the tracks they've released so far for the new album seem to back this up. Time will tell.

Mack The Knife was adapted by Macdonalds for a commercial?!They took a song about a serial killer, and changed it in order to sell Big Macs?Bertholt Brecht and Kurt Weill are spinning in their graves.(In case you didn't already know, Mack The Knife was originally a musical number in Bertholt Brecht and Kurt Weill's black comedy musical The Threepenny Opera. The song, originally called Die Moritat von Mackie Messer ("The Murder-Ballad of Mackie Messer"), details the aforementioned character's nightly activities, i.e. murder and assault; and the fact that it became a pop hit via bowdlerisation just confuses me.)
