The music industry has conferred one of its highest honours on a legendary sixties icon, with Mojo Magazine granting a lifetime achievement award to Marianne Faithfull's Mars Bar.
"The Mars Bar not only gave pleasure to Marianne Faithfull," respected political commentator Johnny Marr told reporters. "It was also a source of inspiration and energy to Mick Jagger."
Smelly old hippies have reacted angrily, however, saying that the Mars Bar was nothing but a minor celebrity which merely gained fame by hanging out with - and from - people with real talent.
Yoko Ono in particular has claimed that she has personally helped billions of people to work, rest and play - and that it was in fact her, and not the Mars Bar, which Mick Jagger was allegedly eating in a manner not endorsed by the manufacturers when police burst in to carry out a drugs bust.
