 No Boss love on here...

*taps foot*

"57 channels and nothin' on..."

I really could care less about the Boss. I never did like him when he was at his height of popularity and don't like him now.

that Lady Gaga - I don't understand...

I agree with every single one.

But Rage Against the Machine!! That's a big mistake there, j.

Can I add: The Ramones. 

I really could care less about the Boss. I never did like him when he was at his height of popularity and don't like him now.

 It's actually "couldn't care less",  & I saw Bruce in his prime numerous times in the '70s. You want proof of his greatness, watch the '75 Hammersmith Odeon concert. The last time I saw him was in '81 (The River) & he was hospitalized for exhaustion a few days later. I've been sorta lukewarm since, but the '70s...

Radiohead

Eagles

Led Zeppelin

Coldplay

The Clash

Fall Out Boy

Def Leppard

Maroon 5

Kanye West

Paul McCartney & Wings

Janis Joplin

Coldplay, The Fray, any bands that do shit like this

Linkin Park-ugh

CCR- I don't mind them sometimes but I find John Fogerty's voice to be grating

I don't get all this anti-Clash sentiment on here

How could Rage Against the Machine be thrown out there?  The music is unique and I admire the political nature of the lyrics.  They are also one of the most electrifying live bands I have ever seen.

Lynyrd Skynyrd- Redneck bullshit

Lynyrd Skynyrd- Redneck bullshit

 Agreed, I can't stand Lynard Skynard! They SUCK!

skynard's one of the worst because there is clearly a lot of talent present, but it's all channeled into the buttrock

lol   

If you don't like it, you don't get it.

I don't get all this anti-Clash sentiment on here

Lynyrd Skynyrd- Redneck bullshit

 I'm not anti-Clash, I just don't get their appeal.  I'm not a fan of political music.  I want to be entertained, not preached to!

I'm not a huge Skynyrd fan, but I do like their popular stuff, even though Sweet Home Alabama, is way overplayed.  As far as southern rock goes, their right up there with, James Gang!

I don't get all this anti-Clash sentiment on here

Lynyrd Skynyrd- Redneck bullshit

 I want to be entertained, not preached to!

Amen to that.  That goes for books, music, tv, and movies.
 

Amen - Cool J!!!

Stop expressing yourself. Free Bird!

Stop expressing yourself. Free Bird!

 I like to drive my monster pickup truck up to the lake in the summer wearing a cowboy hat and cranking Sweet Home Alabama.  Life is good.

Isn't it hard to get a tan wearing those sheets?

Huh?

i can understand that but are you really that incapable of ignoring the lyrics and just enjoying the tune?

(i literally can't hear lyrics unless i pull out the liner notes. i consider this to be a huge blessing in my life)
 

It's not like I dislike The Clash that much.  I just don't see what's so special about them.  On the other hand, I'm a huge Ramones fan, and I know a lot of people on here don't like them and thats cool, too.  I've always found , that your either a big fan of one or the other.  It's possible to like both, but you can't like them the same.  Saying that, as a fan of punk, or whatever you wanna call it, I respect the Clash, I just don't get it.

Can't you just feel the love? It's so beautiful.

Oh, I got a few more:

Styx
Rush

Both WAY overrated and Neil Peart is NOT the best drummer ever!
