Yeah yeah I know this type of thread crops up all the time.

I just wanted to express my disgust for the Stereophonics, but my love for 'Mr Writer'

Good call but wrong song!

Their only good song is 'Local Boy In The Photograph'


^^

agreed


^ exactly

That is their best song by a massive mile. Although there was enough stuff on 'word gets around' to lull you into thinking that they were going to be an awesome band. Tch.


MCR

i thought 'Im Not Okay' was a genius pop song. But i cant tolerate the fans and the other songs.


is that the one

that sounds like a blatant rip-off of mr.blue sky?


...lol?


The Killers

Poo, apart from All These Things That I've Done, if that's what it's called. I ruddy love that 'un.


Good call but wrong song!

Their best song is 'Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine'


oddly the only one of

theres i enjoy is that one with Lou Reed


me too

i think that song is well good. the rest are really rubbish though.


Los Camp

I like Death to... but can't stand anything else.


^^

but I love the Tweecore song so much. I don't hate the rest it's just not my thing. Oh, and I also like 'You Me Dancing!', cos the first 7 seconds sounds like the intro to 'Lot Of Miles From Home' by Easyworld.


I absoutley hate Mr Writer.

It'd be high up in any "worst song of all time" list I ever wrote for several reasons (largely lack of tune and "aww, diddums, someone gave me a bad review" self-involved whinge-fucked lyrics).

But I think Local Boy in a Photograph and Dakota are great.


^5


no way jose

surely the only stereophonics song worth anyones time is step on my old size 9s


Queen!

One or two songs and the rest can get right to fuck!


Not hate

But 'Kids' is the only MGMT song I really like.


Arctic Monkeys

Can't abide them at all.

But "Mardy Bum" is a chyoon.


505's an amazing song

although I actually quite like much of the second album.


There are loads and loads of bands like this.

Razorlight.
Coldplay.
Beck.
Republica.

The list could go on for hours. Mr Writer is complete pony though.


Ha ha

Mr Writer certainly is gash pony. For me its Mystery Jets. I love Young Love. I like Boy Who Ran Away. Everything else puts me on edge.


Stereophonics have loads of good songs

For example

Just looking
Thousand trees
Bartender and the thief
Roll up and shine
Pick a part that's New
Same size feet
Nice to be out

There are more


agreed

great band - 'Not Up To You' is my favourite


The Cribs

Hate them, apart from Men's Needs and Hey Scenesters.


Be Safe

with Lee Ranaldo is a great song.


Agreed

but Our Bovine Public.


another

number


Don't You Wanna Be Relevant?

I love that song


^ yes


Kings Of Leon

I dont really appreciate them that much.

Apart from the song 'Milk'


A really absurd choice here

But I'm going to go with Caroline's A Victim by Kate Nash. I loathe her, yet this song is like the Ed Wood equivalent of music, so shit its good. Just really infectious and ripe for parody, she sounds like Thornton Reed.


lol

i think her voice is sexy when she says ooohh caroline


the stone roses

mostly unreconstructed rubbish, but i love love love "i am the resurrection", and "made of stone" and "she bangs the drums" are pretty good too.

i still detest "fool's gold", though.


Foals

Mathletics is catchy as fuck, the rest is just shit.


BSP

I only like No Lucifer and Oily Stage


Primal Scream

except for Country Boy and I can't work out why.


Queen

Stone Cold Crazy is alright but the rest is pretty horrible to my ears


Magic Numbers

Utter, utter tosh for cardigan-sporting commuters apart from Hymn for Her which is strangely awesome


The Ting Tings

but Great DJ is fantastic. *Hides*
