Everyone knows Tom Mooring’s music is flippin’ great, but until now no one knew that it was actually medicinal.
A recent study at Oxford University has shown scientific evidence that exposure to the sounds of Tom Mooring can significantly increase the recovery rate of incessant music interrogation victims. Dr Nicholas Pharmacie, who led the study, said:
“When a person undergoes the physical and emotional stress of being kept awake for days on end listening to the same snippets of inane music at incomprehensible volumes a number of different compounds build up in their central nervous system as a result. One such compound is made up of deadly HSM’s (Horrendous Sound Molecules), which naturally occur in people exposed to top 40 playing radio stations.”
A recent case in which Tyneside DJ, Harry ‘The Hay-Bale’ Christian, had to be rushed to A&E after collapsing at Newcastle’s third bi-annual ‘Insanity Marathon of DJ Madness’ has polarised medical experts. The official diagnosis was exhaustion, however this is currently being appealed by Pharmacie’s legal team.
“Poor old ‘Hay-Bale’, this is more than likely a case of critical HSM build up and could be the first recorded case of Cheryl Cole poisoning.” Vehemently waxed Pharmacie.
However, it’s in military hospitals where advances in HSM treatment could be crucial. P.O.W’s are frequently exposed to repetitive playings of pubic permed poodle rock bum boys Bon Jovi in efforts to psychologically cripple the inmate into revealing information, a technique condemned by the UN. This results in giddying levels of HSM’s invading ones central nervous system, causing nausea and disorientation.
“Using electron microscopes we have been able to monitor the HSM’s degrading and exploding in quite spectacular fashions when exposed to, specifically, Tom Mooring’s wailing guitar work.”
Dr Pharmacie sumises:
“Maybe it’s the reckless abandon with which he plays that counteracts the cliched and musically contrived stylings of Bon Jovi axe man Richie Sambora, but don’t quote me on that. Hahaha”
We will.
It has also been revealed that Tom Mooring, the aural antioxidant himself, has donated an undisclosed sum of money so that research into HSM’s can be continued indefinitely. In response to this act of unbridled generosity Oxford University has renamed it’s Trinity College, one of the oldest and most prestigious, to ‘THE MOORINGOPLEX OF SCIENCE GOOD’. Everyone agrees it’s a better name.
Tom Mooring, as usual, refused to comment saying that anyone with a 0.1 HSM concentration or higher can receive a free copy of his entire back catalogue and a signed high-five for only £0.98.
