Phil Collins: he did a good job on drums on Eno's Before And After Science, one of my favourite albums.

Wings represents everything that was truly horrible about music in the seventies.

And yet, 'Wings Over America' is a great live album.

I've saved SHITLOADS of money by not buying print zines ever since they started putting Thom Yorke's ugly fucking face on every single cover every week/month

Robbie Williams is partly responsible for The Darkness

Coldplay pacifies ppl who need pacifying

Kenny G appears to have good personal hygiene.

Nom De Plume (Nom De Plume), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 12:16 (twenty-two years ago)

Good Charlotte seem like they'd have good table manners.

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 12:29 (twenty-two years ago)

By comparison to the other two, the bassist out of the Stereophonics seems bearable.

William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 12:31 (twenty-two years ago)

the guy from the dashboard confessional gives other people with terrible voices the confidence to sing loudly and proudly in public.

your null fame (yournullfame), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 12:33 (twenty-two years ago)

robbie williams is truly loathsome - however he also full of self loathing, so it's nice that he aggrees with me.

jed-e-3, Wednesday, 13 August 2003 12:44 (twenty-two years ago)

The title of Michael Bolton's "Can I Touch You There" is one of the great single-entendres.

Susan (Susan), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 12:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Randy Newman is a speak-the-obvious, preach-to-the-converted bore, but he did at least write a song that Alan Price made sound good.

And while we're on the subject of Nina Simone, it's perhaps unfair of me to pretend when I'm hearing "How do you mend a broken heart?" that it was written by someone other than the Bee Gees.

Alan Connor (Alan Connor), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 12:52 (twenty-two years ago)

momus has a nice collection of eyepatches

Celine Dion has probably helped some really ugly, charmless and witless people have sex over the years.

Matt DC (Matt DC), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 13:17 (twenty-two years ago)

Fred Durst shares a birthday with lots of cool mufuckaz (such as Isaac Hayes, Robert Plant, KRS-One, myself, etc).

nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 13:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Connor "the genius" Oberst has proven that a good scene can exist in a small town.

don weiner, Wednesday, 13 August 2003 13:23 (twenty-two years ago)

I lot of artists I don't like are very, very good looking. And some of them are Mary-Kate Olsen.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 13:59 (twenty-two years ago)

The singer from Staind has an very nice shaved head.

Jeanne Fury (Jeanne Fury), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 14:04 (twenty-two years ago)

isnt she like 16? still if she ever lezzes up with that sister of hers, please pass on the word.

Bob Shaw (Bob Shaw), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 14:14 (twenty-two years ago)

Don Henley seems to be very concerned about both the environment and artists' rights.
Still ...

Bruce Urquhart (Bruce Urquhart), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 14:18 (twenty-two years ago)

lulu has probably deafened some people who deserved it.

She has a sister?

Robbie Williams is partly responsible for The Darkness

In what way, Dave? I certainly reckon the Knebworth shows will be responsbile for The Darkness's next wave of success, though...

Mick Hucknall of Simply Red is involved with the excellent "Blood & Fire" reggae reissue label.

The Frantic Elevators weren't that bad either.

Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 14:39 (twenty-two years ago)

Sting can do it for hours on end.

Missy Anon, Wednesday, 13 August 2003 14:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Actually, the first couple of Sham 69 singles weren't too bad.

Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 14:47 (twenty-two years ago)

Sarah McLachlan has created music that is deeply meaningful to a massive number of people. She was really central to the pop music climate of an era. Everyone who lived in Canada through the 90s will probably always remember at least one of her songs, regardless of their personal feelings towards it.

sundar subramanian (sundar), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 14:48 (twenty-two years ago)

"Sting can do it for hours on end".

I don't think he ever manages to reach a satisfactory climax 'though.

Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 14:50 (twenty-two years ago)

Paul Weller's work with The Jam and The Style Council was rather good.

Some of Billy Idol's work with Generation X was OK too.

Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 14:51 (twenty-two years ago)

< barrel > I wouldn't that imagine Bryan Adams has ever forgotten to buy his mother a nice card on her birthday. < /scrape >

Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 14:54 (twenty-two years ago)

Dude, BA recorded two of the greatest rock singles of all time!

sundar subramanian (sundar), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 14:55 (twenty-two years ago)

Feargal Sharkey has never publicly disparaged my sister.

Horace Mann (Horace Mann), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 14:55 (twenty-two years ago)

tori amos has kept many a piano-stool maker in business.

Richey Edwards still hasn't shown/washed up

Noel Gallagher will one day decompose and fertilize ground where flowers might grow.

nickalicious (nickalicious), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 15:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh Nickalicious, that's a beautiful thought!

Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 15:08 (twenty-two years ago)

Marky Mark has acted very well in some respectable movies such as Boogie Nights and Three Kings.

His brother, Donnie from the New Kids, was very impressive in The Sixth Sense.

Pleasant Plains (Pleasant Plains), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 15:43 (twenty-two years ago)

The girls in Dream have very nice, well-toned midriffs.

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 15:51 (twenty-two years ago)

Hannah from S Club has a lovely smile.

sting is HOT

reo fordecor, Wednesday, 13 August 2003 15:56 (twenty-two years ago)

Oooh! I've got a good one:

When I encoutered U2 many years ago, it seemed to me that Adam Clayton wasn't quite such a total and utter fuckin' arsehole as the other three members of the band.

(does that count?)

Stewart Osborne (Stewart Osborne), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 15:56 (twenty-two years ago)

fred durst dislikes scott stapp.


scott stapp dislikes fred durst. (although he has probably 'forgave' him or 'washed his hands' of him by now -oh well)


reo fordecor, Wednesday, 13 August 2003 16:10 (twenty-two years ago)

At least the American Idol kids made for a little bit of good TV.

Chris O'Connor (Chris O'Connor), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 16:13 (twenty-two years ago)

the rolling stones have lots of money, at least 1000 dollars of which mustve been given to a charity at some point, even if it was for tax purposes.

Felcher (Felcher), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 16:13 (twenty-two years ago)

To say Donnie Wahlberg is a better actor than musician is to damn with faint praise, but he's actually a really good actor. better than his bro (example, Band of Brothers)

in some pictures, jeff tweedy has nice hair.

praying mantis (praying mantis), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 19:10 (twenty-two years ago)

"Pump It Up" was actually a pretty nice new wave song. Everything else was pretty much crap tho.

Mr. Diamond (diamond), Wednesday, 13 August 2003 19:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Limp Bizkit. They know how to spell "Limp"

Johnny Badlees (crispssssss), Thursday, 14 August 2003 10:02 (twenty-two years ago)

"Limb" would've been better, tho

Between them, Mick Jagger and Brian Ferry have kept Jerry Hall from shacking up with anybody else for 30 odd years.

Susan (Susan), Thursday, 14 August 2003 12:21 (twenty-two years ago)

re:madonna

this song -and specifically this remix- completely owns:

Good grief

jack white seems like a hard worker. who does what he wants to do. he will still have to hear out of tune marching bands in each ear play seven nation army for eternity in hell when he dies. like, literal tiny marching bands in his ears. and both bands won't be playing in unison with each other. and there will be bees too. in his ears. and it will just be that riff too. that they are playing. not the whole song.

scott seward, Friday, 22 March 2024 12:20 (one year ago)

This made me laugh:

Limp Bizkit. They know how to spell "Limp"

let’s get intertwined (morrisp), Friday, 22 March 2024 12:50 (one year ago)

"One Hot Minute" is a solid album with lots of cool ideas and some surprisingly resonant moments

Does this mean we also have thank Rupert Murdoch?

Hideous Lump, Friday, 22 March 2024 13:24 (one year ago)

working hard to produce things that are bad is not novel, so much popular art is popular because of people without talent who just “work hard”

but “dead leaves and the dirty ground” is a classic love song, I can’t front

brimstead, Friday, 22 March 2024 15:24 (one year ago)

not novel? Not good

brimstead, Friday, 22 March 2024 15:24 (one year ago)

no, even i will admit that he had his moments with the white stripes. after that...well, not that i've heard. and that voice...

scott seward, Friday, 22 March 2024 15:27 (one year ago)

yeah eeesh seriously
