And, and, AND... The only remotely half-interesting tube they ever wrote was stolen off Kraftwerk.

Libertines, Covrover agree never been interested or listened to them. just thought skaghead!
However watched them at Glasto and was surprised, bought their stuff since! which is unusual for me!!
Watched 15 min of the who nearly fell asleep then went around the corner to catch 3/4's of the Chemical Bros. Glad I did !!! they rocked it perfect end to the wkend.

BST, our lass and I could divorce over coldplay! she loves and I think its un rocked U2 for Tarquin and Julia's.

Ed-f**king-Sheeran

Singing songs about being young and in love. With less emotion than I show when I order haddock from the chippy.

If you're going to sing about being young and in love, you make the object of your desires feel like you have condensed the Universe into a ball for them. You make a song that makes them realise that the universe can vanish down a black hole if you can't have them. You make it a Greek Epic.
Ne me quitter pas by Jacques Brel
Montague Terrace in Blue by Scott Walker
I Wanna be Adored by the Stone Roses
Oh Yeah by Ash
We Could Send Letters by Aztec Camera
What the Moon Saw by Band of Holy Joy
God Only Knows by The Beach Boys
Just Like Heaven by The Cure

Summat wi a bit of f**king passion.

Young Sheeran just mumbles a bit about being confused about how he should feel about getting his tops and fingers. Like a bus shelter compared to the Taj Mahal.

Ed Sheeran can sing though. And he has earned his stripes IMHO.

Whoever said Pitbull though, I concur wholeheartedly.

Well my list could be veeeery long, but a condensed version would be
Foo fighters :- Grohl must thank the lord for the day Kurt blew his brains out otherwise he'd just be an ex-drummer from a grungeband.
Kasabian:- why anyone would want to be a wannabe Oasis I have no idea !
Ed Sheeran:- as others have said above.
But as has already been said....each to their own :-)

I like most types of music and most bands/singers have had at least 1 song I like but for me I absolutely f*ck*ng hate:

Any rap song since "white Lines"
Rihanna - umbrellaaaaaaaaaa! Unforgivable!
Rita f*ck*ng Ora
Westlife.... I couldn't name one of their songs cos they are all the same! Biggest boyband of all time my arse!
Nicki "can't sing a song without shrieking" Minaj
All DJ's pretending to be pop stars - just play the f*ck*ng record you t*ss*r - remember jimmy saville & DLT were DJ's too!
James tw*tt*ng Blunt - throw me on a spike!!!
Kanye West - don't know any of his songs but a total d*ckhead!
Anything in the top ten for the last 6 months!

Actually the list could be very long if I had time to carry on so ignore the first line above - there's loads of sh*t out there!!!!

You read War and Peace BST? Great book, whilst really frustrating to read all the f**k ups that stopped them being everything they could be. Explains the meaning of I wanna be adored too.

Razorlight. Johnny Borrell once proclaimed he was on par or better than Dylan at song writing.

Here's his justification.

'What a drag it is
 The shape i'm in
 Well I go out somewhere
 Then I come home again

 I light a cigarette
 'Cause I can't get no sleep
 Theres nothing on the TV nothing on the radio
 That means that much to me

 All my life
 Watching America
 All my life
 There's panic in America
 Oh Oh Oh, Oh
 There's trouble in America
 Oh Oh Oh, Oh

 Yesterday was easy
 Happiness came and went
 I got the movie script
 But I don't know what it meant'

Arctic monkeys first album was fantastic one of my favourites

Must have gone to their heads as everything since has been shit

I saw them do an accepetence speech at the Brits I think and cringed

Came across like a proper set of t**ts

Humbug and AM are a thousand times better than their first album IMO.

Amazed to hear criticism of AM and Kasabian. Great bands.

Arctic Monkeys are a great example of doing what the Rolling Stones are being slated for not doing, a band that has grown and evolved. It would be farcical for them to go on singing about getting pissed in Sheffield if they are all living in LA. I love Josh Homme's influence on their recent work.

Kanye West has to be seen to be believed. I went to his Glow in the Dark tour and have seen nothing like it, fantastic show verging on theatre. Some of his tunes (Touch The Sky, Stronger) are great, grade A bell-end though.

I've never really got the Manic Street Preachers (having first really listened to them in the Everything Must Go era and found them to be pretty MOR) but something just clicked recently and I can appreciate them now.

Muse were fantastic in their early days and were incredible live when they were ripping of RATM and Radiohead but I can't listen to them now they've morphed into Queen.

Not so much hate, but as an aging punk the one punk band I just didn't like were The Clash.

Another vote for Coldplay. Most overrated band ever. I bought Parachutes and gave it away after listening to three tracks. Utter dog shite.

Not so much a band/artist, but I HATE it when a rapper does a verse during a song, usually with worse lyrics than you'd expect to hear on Whose Line is it Anyway?

Coldplay and Muse are just neurotically dull. I really dislike the Arctic Monkeys though. I'm not keen on their music, but the worst thing is living in South Yorkshire and people saying "oh you have to like them cos they're local". No I f**king don't. I like local music, love Def Leppard, Saxon, Black Spiders, an indie band called O Captain, plus many others. But I dislike one band of overrated irritating muppets and people lose their minds.

I was with you until I got to Wishbone Ash. Anyone that doesn't have Argus as one of the top ten albums of all time is a total, utter, complete idiot.
