    How has Lil Wayne not come up yet? The man's had a talent lobotomy and he's swallowed an effing autotune which cant be turned off!

    And he needs to pull up his f*cking trousers!!!

    Get rid of Queen off the radio, god i HATE that band.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,496 ✭✭✭Mr. Presentable


    Dublin radio station Q102 should be permanently banned as well. It's the most half-assed radio station I have ever listened to:mad:

    Oh I'd say they're pretty much a full a*se

    That Dizzee chap, what a retard

    As for the Killers I'll have to disagree with you OP. I love them, All These Things I've Done has to be one of the best songs I've ever heard.. Don't see how anyone can call them sh1te tbh..

    I have to agree, the Killers have gotton away with manslaughter with their weak melodies, kindergarten lyrics, and dated keyboard/synth... American glam/punk/pop.... they obviously have big money behind them somewhere.

    "Don’t you wanna feel my bones on your bones? It’s only natural"

    How can anyone claim to be a fan of a band who are capable of these lyrics.... almost as cringe-worthy as when the Sweedish pop factory wrote and translated a song for Brian McFadden and one of the lines went

    "...And we'll invite the family round, And drink some english tea, Then I raise up my finger and watch football on tv"

    I listen to online radio... SOMA fm is good (it will appear as 'Groove Salad' when you open this link)

    Black eyed peas. how have they managed to launch 2 absolutely **** songs in a row that made it to radio?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    Can we not ban The Script? I can't turn on a radio without hearing one of their songs these days. Grrr. Fair enough they're Irish but come on!!!!! Enough is enough. At least play some decent Irish music on the radio. *cough* Thin Lizzy *cough*. Much better than that tripe any day.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,916 ✭✭✭RonMexico


    They borrowed it from Hunter S.Thompson.

    Brandon Flowers claimed to have but I have yet to find any quote from Thompson using those words.

    I run this website - http://totallygonzo.org and in our forum nobody can track that quote from Thompson either.

    I'd say more likely Flowers is full of ****.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,235 ✭✭✭iregk


    I have to agree, the Killers
    How can anyone claim to be a fan of a band who are capable of these lyrics....

    Oh how we all bow down to your vastly superior lyric writing. Tell me, what stadiums have you played in this year? Also name me one master piece that I would have heard on the radio written by you?

    I'm a fan of the killers yes. I like their music. That said my head isn't so far up my own ass that I'll slaughter the lyric writing when in fact I've never written a song in my life.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,916 ✭✭✭RonMexico


    Do not judge talent by one's popularity young padawan. 95% of the population are tone deaf lemmings.

    I pretty much gave up on music a long time ago. Sure there are some good bands out there these days but you have to wade through a pit of filth to find them.

    No thanks.

    Also they unleashed "Are we human or are we dancers" on us which is up there among the greatest crimes of humanity like genocide.
    Actually I think you'll find the line is "Are we human or are we dancer". No plural, singular. If you listen to the lyrics you might understand it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,432 ✭✭✭df1985

    All pop music with the exception of a select few songs, and all dance music with the exception of an even selecter group of songs...

    And also, lol at people trying to convert that Neyo fan with songs from the last 2 KOL albums:rolleyes:

    ok i'll stand corrected but how the hell does that make any sense tho...

    surely you can be a human AND a dancer
    Tsk, did it ever occur to you that maybe you're just not perceptive enough to comprehend such deep, meaningful words?




    Then again, maybe it doesn't make any sense!:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,497 ✭✭✭Nick_oliveri


    Banned from the radio?
    Spin needs to be banned from the radio. Or raided with phone calls requesting "Chessboxin'" by Wu Tang clan or "Brooklyn Zoo" by ODB.

    Or "Overkill" by Men at work.

    Thats a reference to a Hunter S.Thompson quote when he said something along the lines of "America's raising a generation of Dancers" ....That said,Thompson was prone to tripping balls on drugs! :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,831 ✭✭✭genericguy


    the ting tings.

    seriously, who actually likes that shite? If you do, please drop by my lab, I'd like to abort you.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,235 ✭✭✭iregk


    I love the way everyone bad mouthing the Killers is all in reference to the lyrics. Someone even said bands of new times are crap.

    So lets look at what wonderful masterpieces there are from legends of the scene.

    If i was a sculptor, but then again, no - Elton John
    We all live in a yellow submarine - The Beetles (how off their faces were they?)
    There's an insect in your ear, if you scratch it it wont disappear - U2
    Leaving was never my proud - R.E.M
    There were plants and birds and rocks and things - America

    Pure class them :)

    that, and the fact that it is dancers, and not denser.

    Kings of Leon, at least until Caleb hits puberty and stops screeching when he reaches the end of a line, or sings in a way that doesn't require subtitles for his lyrics.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 396 ✭✭dez_warlock


    Tony Fenton. ****ing hell, every middle of the road piece of crap song is not "great" or groundbreaking.

    Also Razorlight, HATE them!

    Neyos A Legend ! The kings of leon are a heap of crap . lik c'mon . whats up with there name ? They **** ! Just Face it ! :)

    Their Father & Grandfather are ministers, both called Leon, originally they were going to follow in his footsteps & study as ministers, fortunately for those of us who can appreciate good music, they followed their gut instincts and tried to make it in the music industry using their talent. Ne-Yo a legend? Thats right - you're a legend these days if you appear on Cribs - you won't see the Kings on that because they have a little self respect & like the last of a dying breed - they won't blow their cash on the latest Ferrari/Bentley/Porsche - they'll just get locked & enjoy themselves like normal human beings.

    +1 on both these. Tony Fenton doesn't necessarily have a bad show, but just his voice & condescending tone drive me mad & he plays way too much U2.

    Seems like most of the good bands have been banned already from the airwaves, thank goodness for Planet Rock.
