I love most of these songs and artists, but they should really change it up from the hits to the less known songs.

[Butter Bean]

That Muse song where they say, "They will not destroy us." Or something around those lines. Can't stand to hear it at all.

I think using the Move is a bad comparison. The Move were always a group in transition, in as much as frontmen Roy Wood and Jeff Lynne always had their eyes on greater heights, sure the Move put out some good material but most of their stuff was quite hit and miss and neither one nor the other style wise.

A group like the Kinks would`ve been a better comparison, in that they are also the quintessential British group of that period.

The reason they`re over-hyped, is that their influence is still dominant and proof that their brilliance has never really been equalled.

wat?

Pulp are too cheesy. I think that's my problem with them.

"I took her to a supermarket, I don't know why but I had to start it somewhere. So it started..... there." :laughing:

I don't actually dislike Common People as a song, it's good fun. The first few times you hear it..

[Amber is bored]

I would actually say the first album has more of a trip-hop influence to it than Plastic Beach does. A song like "Gravity" would be an example.


Well, it was a grower for me. I liked it when it came out but wasn't head-over-heels about it, but slowly over time it's come to be one of my favorite albums of that decade. One of the great moody albums IMO.

What Adam Larabert song is popular?

[whitefeathersnpr]

Never heard it and I listen to classic rock radio on a semi-regular basis......

[Tangled Web]

His & Hers is second.
And I rate them very highly, a top 20 band for me.

I hear the "Use Somebody" get played a lot, but I swear it sounRAB so much like a another song I heard that comes from the 80s.
