half and c_eagle agree on official top 12 songs

[Misanthrope]

radiohead - no surprises

Of the twelve, I've heard two (this one, and the White Stripes track). The White Stripes one is shit. Then, anything they do sucks ass. As for 'No Surprises', it's a great track, but I'm not sure it'd make my top twelve. Will track down the rest.

What's the difference between my favourite songs and the best songs of all time? If they are my favourite obviously I think they are the best.

Absolutely.

But that's not what you called the list.

As for songs being on the radio because people want to hear them, what a load of crap, *cough* Australian Idol *cough*. Talk about cramming cheap, plastic music down the throats of the general public.

Again. That may be exactly what happens but it wasn't always that way.

The music you posted is shit in my opinion, but so is 99% of the stuff they play on radio today. It all sounds so bland, manufactured and I've heard it all before. Literally in some cases.

You just don't get it EA, you probably don't even own Zeppelin 2, 3 or 4, you just know that Stairway to Heaven is popular so you stick it in your list.

Stairway isn't on my list.

Stairway was never released as a single in Australia.

I own 4 Zeppelin Albums, along with a couple of Queen, Slade, Status Quo and various others.

And..... they're albums, not CD's.

oops, there goes your theory.

Anyway, I prefer Black Dog or The Immigrant Song to Stairway.

Your assumptions are laughable.

And Wings, lmfao, McCartney is embaressed of Wings, they are that aweful.

A couple of e's too many there mate.

Wings did some crap, any band that has 30 or so hits will have some crap on it that sheep will buy just because it's that band.

But popular music isn't automatically rubbish.

Rubbish is rubbish. If people don't buy it, that's probably a good indication that the music either isn't very good or they didn't blow the right people. In the case of the music you listed, I'll assume the former.

What popular music at the moment isn't rubbish? I'm not having a go at anyone, just asking the question...

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

c_eagle makes a point. It's his top twelve. He doesn't state it's 'the greatest twelve songs of all time', just that he and half (who writes good F7's articles, but everything else is tripe) have finally come to some kind of agreement on their favourite songs. Hoorah for them. Now they don't need to bicker when they're planning what to do their first dance as Mr. and Mrs. Bad Taste in music to.

Yeah, I know it was just "their" list, I just wanted to bag the soppy prats anyway.

But, their taste in music really is firmly in their clackers. Bloody awful.

Yet they have the hide to bag real classics, music that spans generations. Their music couldn't span a bathtub.

 

[CliffyIsGod]

How can you criticise their list when you have heard two of the songs!? You can't! Get back to work!

Agreed....

My car is being fixed at the moment, so I've been forced to drive my mums..The CD player is busted so I was forced to listen to the radio. After trying to find a decent station..Or at least just a decent song I gave up and put on some religious radio for a laugh..


Silence :arrow: Radio

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

Yeah I can.

Do you believe beagle when he says he's heard every song on the two lists I posted?

If he's heard every song on those lists, I've heard enough of his list to know they're all shite.

Poetic Licence works both ways.

And one thing in my last post that I should correct.

Stairway never charted as a single, I'm not 100% sure it wasn't released in Australia as a single, but I believe it wasn't.

I prefer Neibhgourhood #1 (Tunnels) man, but still a pretty sweet list. I also really like Godspeed! and the 1979 track, swell list for sure.

 

[CliffyIsGod]

That's two lists better than EA...

 

[Misanthrope]

I love the comraderie between Manly fans.

I hope whatever hit you on the head didn't cause any lasting damage...

I think it was good taste in music, looks like you need two smacks.

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

Dude, I couldn't get down to your taste in music if I did all the crack in the known Universe and downed it with a 44 gallon drum of pure alcohol.

All Along the Watchtower is so much better than anything on your list and the other Manly ponce's list it's not funny.

And those lists aren't my personal favourites, they're just songs from 2 random years that wipe the floor with your lists.

It's because you're trying to compare shit sandwiches to Steak dinners.

 

[Sun_Down]

12. Cheap Trick -- Surrender
Beat that, y0!

Cheap Trick -- Mighty Wings

Hehe, just my favourite Cheap Trick track

You haven't even listened to the sings, maybe shit sandwiches are really nice?
