so are you guys saying that Anna is wrong or that she is right but being bitchy about it?
and,
get off your 'I know the bands' pedestal. thats the lamest argument comeback i have heard for a long time - parasites...
sorry this link thing is weird - it didn't appear on the topic starter.

Who is this toss? Is he a Backstreet Boy fan? Does anyone know what he regards as good songs?

saw them live at valve (in wellies) a few weeks back - seen a lot there but they were one of the best i've seen. only saw the first 3 songs -including 'blowing dirt' but it was enough to keep me buzzing for a day or 2 - and i don't even really like the songs that much (bit of a gurge rip-off). very 'endearing' front man too. i agree with you - i suspect they'll do well with all (the tastless young ones, critics and the essential ladies also!)
what do you reckon of the spacetv presenters and the show in general?
yeah but....
I guess I'm more interested in why danceheads just can't stomach anything that sounds vaguely like a rock song. Why do people keep trying to make rock dead? I mean polka isn't 'dead'! It seems dance is on a one way crusade to erase rock type stuff. I used to be fully electronica oriented and didn't listen to traditional song structures at all. Then I began to miss the classic song catch riff chorus etc. I thought this was just me but it seems the whole world forgot-da-rock for a while there. Bogans are back I reckon - Shihad live over summer got me thinking - hey, ACDC are even cool again. I'm looking forward to the new Tool album as much as an Amon Tobin or a Mogwai album.
5 trillion billion dollars to anyone who can bridge the gap between these 2 bi-polar genres... why do 'rock' fans seem to come off like pigs when complaining about dance stuff, and why do 'dance' dj's hate rock so much? RE-MIX reckons rock is dead don't they? And can anyone agree on what 'dance' should be called as a genre - is it 'electronica' or ____?
sorry aly - i didn't mean you were the 'whore'! :(
I meant that some people with strict musical tastes can be 'fashion-whores' - in that they follow what trends are 'hip' and 'now' rather than trusting their own instincts to move away from mainstream music opinion. i guess i find the rock-vs-dance thing really dumb cos i don't know anyone who only listens to one genre. anyway, enufs enuf - I actually had very little to add to this conversation anyways. good luck and i hope ypou do even better with the next single etc.
we just listen to quality music - not genre specific fashion whore crap
I find them kindof average, only cause they seem a bit formula. dam good start tho -
this is stylie - can't believe it's the old town hall. i'm back into the 'Bus big time. the first album is amazing...
you gotta love it when the alter-ego troll technique backfires....
