    I think Michael Jackson is the finest performer the world has ever seen. He was consistently brilliant live along with great dance moves and he put on a whole show!

    He has had very few bad songs :L

    There was a brilliant discussion on the Hip Hop forum a few months ago comparing Chris Brown to Michael Jackson. A small few posters (read 1/2 out of 20) were of the opinion that Brown (or Shawty Mane as one person referred to him as) is the next MJ.

    That would have been the perfect post for this thread.

    In Rainbows is better than OK Computer

    Enda kenny is better than Bertie Ahern.

    Radiohead where great for a time..really great.. they aint anymore no matter how much people claim they are....the songs they wrote at the time reflected their lives..today they are just the hits and they belt them out fair enough.Most Bands are only really great for a short period of time and you have to catch them then..in that time..,,watching radiohead/stone roses these days just does not interest me one little bit.

    I think a lot of the albums that really change the shape of things, the ones great bands are remembered for, show their age badly once the novelty wears off and everybody gets in on the action.

    Hail to the Thief and In Rainbows have not aged and will not age the same way as Radiohead's more acclaimed releases, because they're better crafted abums all things considered. Same for the Smashing Pumpkins Adore for the same reasons.


    King of Limbs is still wanky though.

    I found Tiny Tim's Tiptoe Through the Tulips riveting when I recently listened...

    I don't think OKC has aged at all. The Bends has for sure though.

    The vocalist from Kings of Leon is awful beyond words.

    So no matter how much people claim they are, we should listen to you, because you're right?

    Okay...

    ...I might just keep on listening to everyone else (including myself) who says they still are and always will be a great great ****ing band.

    I think jill v gets what I meant...altough i think sp lost 'it' after the mess of mellon collie.

    hey dude i did'nt ask anyone to listen to me..i just gave my opinion on them.unpopular as it may be...if they can release another genre defying album I may change my opinion.I don't blindly follow bands based on earlier glories.

    You mean they're irrelevant when you say they're "yesturday"?

    I started listening to Dizzie Gillespie. Yesterday is someone else's tomorrow :)

    It certainly helps when one of the musicians you choose from Yesteday is ****ing incredible ;)

    I mean they dont excite me the way they did pre 2000..i never got into the later releases and until such time they have some music that I deem good then they are irrelevant-- to me personally that is.

    Oh ok, I get you. Their music definitely changed after 2000, I can see what you mean there.

    Speaking of Radiohead, I like The King of Limbs and in no way is it their worst album IMO.


  • Registered Users Posts: 209 ✭✭johnROSS


    Radiohead make fine music. But their attitude is all wrong. "Being famous is soooo hard!" said thom Yorke, as he wiped his butt with a £50 note.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,758 ✭✭✭Temaz


    Gotta say I love Radiohead!!

    That's the best unpopular opinion so far!

    "Radiohead helps me enjoy life to the fullest"- said noone, ever.

    He was probably having one of his mental breakdowns at the time, to be fair :pac:

    Who has ever said that about any band?

    I know Radiohead got me into some really deadly ****, and a lot of their stuff would make it into my 'favourite music ever' list, if I ever had to make one.

    Smiley Smile is better than Pet Sounds

    Magical Mystery Tour is better than Sgt Peppers

    Radiohead aren't depressing
