Blasphemy! I will defend Bis to my dying day with little or no regard for what their records sound like at the time. Ho hum.

Say what you like about Bis, at least they ain't wibbly psuedo- mystics. So if it was them vs. jokeyrokey...

Team Groke have debated this long and hard and the conclusion is generally that Jay Kay is probably a good bloke but he shouldn't make any more records. Bis we haven't debated but they're dreadful. Other bands who are actually That Bad: U2, The Cure, The Moldy Peaches, Afroman.

fighting crime trying to save the world here they come just in time POWER PUFF GIRLS!! powah puff!

The Moldy Peaches should be made into penicillin.

Mark S = Fuzzy Lumpkins.

They are all fools but Jamiroquai is a much better made up name than Mand Rin, so Jamiroquai is empirically proven to be better.

Moldy Peaches are rotten fruit and This Cake is stale.

Moldy Peaaches are total wimpy fey singalong rubbish that should be wiped out and thrown away (why does that Starry like em?). another band that R top notch crap being advertised on Xfm at the mo - are a US band called Cake - pointless singalong inane melodic rock bullshit with dirge backing.

my opinion of bis = http://home.iprimus.com.au/laurapalmer/cdreviewsmain.htm#bis

― Geoff, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Err, you make them sound quite good there, Geoff.

i smoked pot with toby and the digiridoo player!

The Moldy Peaches are just dreadful. Seeing them live was like seeing the carcass of Gen X irony finally beaten into ash, but done slowly, with the force of a feather. They made the Strokes singer's smoke machine-covered Liam Gallagher poses look good.

Tomorrow on BBC2, the Naked Chef returns but this time Jamie Oliver has got celebrity 'mates'. First episode's guest is JAY KAY.

Jay Kay is pretend celebrity mates with Jamie Oliver therefore Bis are better than Jamiroquai.

This logic isn't quite necessary though because IT'S OBVIOUS that Bis are better because Bis are ace.

― jamesmichaelward, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Jamiroquai's at least a pretty good dancer, especially for a hippie. I've never heard Bis. Really not that bad: Hootie. Really is: Ben Folds.

― Kris, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

JK and JO are SO made for one another

― mark s, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Bis and the Moldy Peaches should beat each other to death. I hate them both with a passion, having recently received both of their albums at the radio station where I work.

Seeing them live was like seeing the carcass of Gen X irony finally beaten into ash, but done slowly, with the force of a feather.

Good call, Scott.

What are JK and the mockney twunt cooking? Hash cakes?

― Billy Dods, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I like U2.

Hopefully they'll be cooking the mockney twunt's enormous FAT TONGUE

two weeks pass...

surely not,...placebo?

― gareth, Monday, 5 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

You people are patently insane. Who gives a crap if Jamiroquai is going to be on with Jamie Oliver? Little L, while way too persistent at the end, has that totally brilliant little bit in the middle that more than makes up for it. I mean, it's not like it's the best thing ever in the history of time but it's got a good beat and you can, um, dance to it and stuff. Yeah.

― Kim, Monday, 5 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I mean, I quite like Jamiroquai if in the right kind of mood. I like the Cure too.

― Kim, Monday, 5 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

ben folds is great! (OK well, he's shit since he split up the 5, but still...) and boyoboy what a record they could make if bis and the cack in the hat got "knuckled down" in the studio together

― bob snoom, Monday, 5 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Tom Ewing is a very mean man for moking The Cure. The are obviously fantastic. I'll bet you a million dollars that if they had a different singer, they wouldn't get on your nerves nearly as much.

― Dan Perry, Monday, 5 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

how about rob halford - singing for the cure, that is?

― bob snoom, Monday, 5 November 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Well at any rate, it would have eaten into the long term profits of Aqua Net hairspray...
