Fish makes an appearance in the Independent crossword!

Yes, it's true. In a hard-rock themed puzzle, the clue for 11/21 across is: "Fish, say, which is weighted on line, bass perhaps (4,6)"

The solution is "lead singer" with "Fish, say" being the definition bit, obviously.

As soon as you realise, I'm perfectly happy, if I'm left to decide the company I choose.
