And a looooooooooooooooooooooot more...

The only one I'd argue with on that list is Madonna.

Yeah, she's a diva. Yeah, she's not nearly as talented (especially as an actress) as she seems to think she is. But I've really liked a lot of her music.

On the other hand, Omphalos, your comment about "that little twit from Hannah Montana" gave me my best laugh of the day. She is just irritating. And I will also agree with you that I do like a lot of Rush's music.

But I have to say, at the risk of having things thrown at me, that I like U2. A lot. Not everything they've done, mind you. But I don't like everything that any singer or band has done. And, heck, they're still together and producing new music...with their original line-up...what is it, more than 20 years on, certainly.

Yes not many bands can say that! Did you see their impromptu performance on the roof of BBC Broadcasting House last month? It was pretty amazing especially the encore where they did Beautiful Day totally unrehearsed. it was very spur of the moment but sounded the album version,not live sounding at all. Some performance!
As for Maddonna well I never liked her 80s stuff but was never a fan of catchy pop. Then she brought out Ray of Light and what a change! I'd rate it as one of THE best albums by anyone! Not sure what she's done since thats worthy tho,not heard a great deal of anyone's music as I don't possess a radio!

Well I'll agree with James Blunt,boring!
Katie Tunstall,hmmm first album is great,(I had her email address at one point) not heard the new one though.

[Tillane]

Yes, James Blunt. Awful, awful and awful.

Oh, and Katie Melua, too.

While listening to the radio in work the other day the DJ said that Miley Cirus has a brother and said brother is heavily into tatoos. I thought OK, sounds like hes into rock music and maybe one of the Cirus brood has some taste. Then he played the bands song and i nearly passed out from the shear amount of CHEESE dripping from the lyrics. I think i was called Shake or Shake It?
So now I also hate the band called Metro Station!!! with a vengence!!!!

[Urlik]

although, as someone who had a mohawk, I shouldn't criticise anyone's hairstyle, I saw the video for Shake It by Metro Station and I nearly wet myself laughing.
they have those weird emo haircuts that go across their faces diagonally as if they turned their heads quickly while the stylist was working on them and didn't notice.

Amy Macdonald ? What dont you like about her ?

Is it because she is scottish

She is one of my new favorite female singers along with Duffy,Natasha Bedingfield,Lykke Li.

I like her voice. Some that sound so brittish when they sing sound extra good.
Heck 50% of the reason i dig Arctic Monkeys.

Sorry, no. Didn't see that, as I'm in the States and so have no way to see it. Maybe BBCAmerica will show it sometime.

[AE35Unit]

Two more to add.
Arctic Monkeys. Noisy punk,move on.
REM. Yes they had a couple of nice singles,Losing my Religion,Man on the Moon and yes they have a cool name that refers to a type of sleep pattern but well,I had to listen to a best of a few times at a job I used to have and its like,oh god,I'll slash my wrists now eh!

[Majimaune]

I thought that a lot of what have been said were just taken for granted.

Country and Western . How can a people with neither history nor culture create folk music ?

Well, Ace I'm with you on one, but disgree about the other.

I LOAHE (c)rap. I hate it so badly I cant even pinpoint one "artist." I listen to lots of music, but I simply cannot stomach (c)rap. It annoys me to no end.

I am no fan of country and western either, but I found the rest of your comment to be rather insulting and anti-American. Okay, our country is not as old as yours. But we DO have history and have forged a culture of our own.

And I would add two more types of music - Opera and Metal. Of any kind. It takes a whole lot of talent to scream and growl doesnt it? Hell, I can scream, and probably do it more in tune than most of the so called metal "artists" out there.

I agree with you 100% with this post. Re the rap-it aint music.
Re the country and western,its bad yes but to say that americans are incapable of creating folk is incorrect. After all didn't folk music originate in America?

[Runya]

Oh! One more to add to the list........... *drums roll*


Simple Plan


That baby voice does not convince me of their talents... *sighs* Such a bad talent. Nice lyrics. But I just can't listen to the guy singing!
