Well I can't believe there isn't any mention of the B52's, the greatest love/hate music ever conceived! Does it irk you? does it make you groove? I like to groove!






Alright alright I'll stop, fuck they're great.

Oh man, nothing personal, seriously but I despise Tom Petty...always had...one of them things I guess, I know he's very popular but his music never really caught on to me, maybe Free Fallen...a thin maybe...I realize he's a favorite though so I guess t was bound to happen...

Yup. For me, Petty is the musical equivalent to fabric softeners that make clothes feel like they've been greased and smell like urinal cakes.

What's your thoughts on Cyndi Lauper?


Tremendous voice, I know her act overshadows her talent but man she has a rare natural gift, her range is insane!

Had to add this one too...such a great song...

I know it, I wasn't really complaining about your choice Fenikso, I was just sharing my opinion about Petty, just a mater of preference, nothing more. Please share away, this is for all of us, I'm sure some folks would share in your fandom.

On topic...

Ian Hill...so fucking awesome!

Bit hippie lyrics but I always got a kick out of that song.

Oh, and this:


And this:

Good ol' 808, how I luv thee...

I could go on for DAYS, man. :)

No problem with Midnight Oil, since their songs easily translate to 'merican.




And some more Colonialist Debauchery:
