I don't think most of these people are "hideously ugly" in the least.

Yeah, HIDEOUSLY ugly is a bit extreme. That said, I don't think Tracey Thorn or the gents in the Cocteaus could ever be considered eye candy.

how recent is that pic of Mark Hollis ?

Hmmm.. "Dream On", "Angie", "As Tears Go By" and "Amazing" may all qualify as "beautiful".

― Geir Hongro (GeirHong), Thursday, 16 June 2005 22:43 (twenty years ago)

Btw, regarding Steven Tyler, how come such a hideously ugly man gives birth to such a beautiful daughter?

JONI MITCHELL IS SO NOT UGLY DAMN YOU.

― Sundar (sundar), Thursday, 16 June 2005 23:01 (twenty years ago)

Yeah, i don't think Joni MItchell is especially ugly (despite looking a lot like Sissy Spaceck circa Carrie). Joni Mitchell's music is cetainly a putrid pile of tepid hippy tripe, but she's not visually offending.

what curiously digital pubes ms. buell has in that picture

― kyle (akmonday), Friday, 17 June 2005 01:06 (twenty years ago)

Photoshop developers probably looked at that picture and said "we need a texture map that looks like that."

Hermeto Pascoal may not have been blessed with the most beautiful of faces, but at least he knows how to look cool.

Judee Sill occasionally looked like a female John Lennon circa Some Time In NYC, or some tweedy librarian, but I still fancy her becuase she's Judee Sill. (I know thats off point, so sorry in advance)

I don't think Steve Tyler is ugly, nor Jagger. At least not when they were young dudes. Kinda funny lookin', maybe, but looks aren't just about fitting into plastic conventions are they? This is why most "perfect" looking women I find deeply unsexy - no personality in the face. I think Don Van Vliet's got a great face too.

And whoever nominated Polly Jean or Althea and Donna ought to give the crack-pipe a rest every now and then.

Nope sorry..

But they're still gangly teens there with 70s haircuts!?!?!

Well, maybe Donna then.

― Taste the Blood of Scrovula (noodle vague), Friday, 17 June 2005 08:28 (twenty years ago)

I agree it's a badly taken photo, Althea is obviously in the middle of saying something and Uptown Top Ranking is the don, obv.

― mzui (mzui), Friday, 17 June 2005 08:31 (twenty years ago)

TtBoS OTM in xxxpost. But now I'm also trying hard to see Tracey Thorn as hideously ugly, and that's not working either, so maybe I'm bad at this game.

How about Richard D. James after Chris Cunningham has played with the picture a bit?

Geir trippin' as usual. Alex should listen to "Help Me" and get back.

Eliot Smith is not pretty. I'll know more about his music after I get ex-o, later

I can see your quote making sense in a way. But then, there is no such thing as "hideously ugly" anyway.

You won't have heard of a bloke called Leon Brittan, Geir?

yeah, he's probably decomposing right about... now.
