Jay Scott
Jay Scott was the pen name of Jeffrey Scott Beaven (October 4, 1949 – July 30, 1993), a Canadian film critic.
Born in Lincoln, Nebraska Scott was raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico as a Seventh-Day Adventist, whose doctrine virtually prohibited movies. Scott studied art history at New College of Florida in Sarasota.
Career
Moving to Canada in 1969 as a draft dodger, he settled in Calgary and began writing film reviews for the Calgary Albertan a few years later. He won a National Newspaper Award in 1975, and moved to Toronto when he was hired by The Globe and Mail in 1977.
With the Globe and Mail, Scott became Canada's most influential film critic, winning two more National Newspaper Awards for his writing, and is still widely remembered as one of the best and most influential film critics in the history of Canadian journalism. He was also the host of Jay Scott's Film International, a film series on TVOntario, and published three non-fiction books on both film and art: Midnight Matinees, Changing Woman: The Life and Art of Helen Hardin, and The Prints of Christopher Pratt.
Kingsland Road (band)
Kingsland Road (originally Kingsland) were an English rock and roll-style and urban-inspired funk and disco boy band formed in 2012. The band is made up of Matt Cahill, Joe "Connor" Conaboy, JJ Thompson (known by his surname) and Josh Zaré. Originally a five-piece that included Jay Scott, they finished in ninth place on the tenth series of The X Factor in 2013. They describe their sound as a mixture of predominantly 1970s urban of funk and disco with just a drop of reggae and indie pop and new wave with some Oi! of the 1980s that is furnished with 2010s hard rock.
Kingsland Road released their debut single "Dirty Dancer" in August 2014 and it peaked at number 85 on the UK Singles Chart. On 23 October, Scott quit the band due to lack of enjoyment. Their debut album We Are the Young was released in March 2015. The group announced they were splitting up in June 2015.
Career
2012–13: Formation and The X Factor
Kingsland Road was originally made up of Josh Zaré from Maidstone, Joe "Connor" Conaboy from Rugby, Jon James "JJ" Thompson from Coventry (known by his surname), Matt Cahill from Gloucester and Jamie "Jay" Scott from Wolverhampton. Zaré and Conaboy already knew each other from college, and invited Scott, Thompson and Cahill to form a band after seeing them on YouTube. They named themselves "Kingsland" as they lived together on Kingsland Road.

Kelly In My Camaro
Dark in the... caught Kelley in my Camaro,
Said... tell Preppy as a hello!
First day in class, new kid in the school,
I'm new around here, but every girl think I'm cool.
Plus Kelly don't caught my eye.
I told her what's up?
My Camaro Z28 is outside, let's take that ride,
She said you're trouble, I replied damn right!
Low pretty fucker, what a hell is wrong?
Swear to God I'm a clown if I see her down town
On that big ass cellphone.
Later that day I was chilling by the lockers,
Tried to get Violent to showed me her knockers,
She said I can't, I'm a school's girl,
Plus I'm a virgin.
Thanks for telling me, I ain't trying to put the working,
Besides I'm still chasing after Kelly getting in my Camaro,
I'll take her away from Preppy,
So I'm good...
Hit her with a wink and whisper...
And pumped into,.. sexy without the balls.
He asked if I had any pills on me at all.
Said I head four, she said I need more,
Got a big taste and I...
If... find out he'll try to get me a peace,
He'll probably roll up with his stoned machines,
Life is so, and I...
Give your boy detention
For trying to get fresh with the school nurse.
I called worse...
Always I wanted to owe a chick, to come ride with me,
Plus I'm trying to make a cheerleader jealous
And it won't be hard if she sees you on my car.
Kelly in my Camaro!
Kelly in my Camaro!
