In fact, we'd be better off without anything that the monstrously vain, do-gooding Bono touches.I'm curious about how old you are. The 80s popular music landscape was absolutely dreadful. The underground scene was incredible. But otherwise it was horrible synth-pop, hair metal, and glossy "R&B" with no real soul. U2 is an incredibly arrogant group, to be sure and have other weaknesses, but to claim that the musical landscape of the past and present would not be worse off is way off base, I think.

u2roolz Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 U2 sure seems like the George Clooney of the music industry.People love to hate them both and don't know why.So George and Bono want to sing you a little song from their tattered hearts.Boys! No one likes us-We don't know whyWe may not be perfect, but heaven knows we tryBut all around, even our old friends put us downLet's drop the big one and see what happens We give them money-but are they grateful? (though it's not by the crateful)No, they're spiteful and they're hatefulThey don't respect us-so let's surprise themWe'll drop the big one and pulverize them Asia's crowded and Europe's too oldAfrica is far too hot (I should know George I've been)And Canada's too cold (And Charlton Heston is way too old)And South America stole our nameLet's drop the big oneThere'll be no one left to blame us We'll save AustraliaDon't wanna hurt no kangaroo (it plays an important part Bono in FlashForward too)We'll build an All American amusement park thereThey got surfin', too (wait up George, Heston is dead you foo') Boom goes London and boom ParisMore room for you and more room for me (and Angelina Jolie)And every city the whole world roundWill just be another American townOh, how peaceful it will beWe'll set everybody freeYou'll wear a Japanese kimono babe {blank face from Bono}And there'll be Italian shoes for me They all hate us anyhowSo let's drop the big one nowLet's drop the big one now (Bono & George bow down and exit stage left) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dondante Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 i saw someone mention kenny g. great choice. someone also mentioned journy. another great choice. let me just take that a step further and eliminate whichevever band (if they exist) that was responsible for starting the hair music of the 80's. journey, def leppard and whatever other shit bands there were. to this day, it is nearly impossible to go to a sporting event, bar, or any other kind of social gathering that doesn't directly relate to music, without being torchered with journy or bands of the sort. and not only do we have to hear these dreadful songs, but everyone feels the need to sing along when they are played.

cryptique Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Grateful DeadSeconded. Not so much for the Dead's music itself, about which I'm mostly ambivalent, but for all the jam-band idiots that music inspired. If it's even remotely possible that erasing the Dead from history could spare us from the jam-band genre altogether, then I say, off with their heads. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dude Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Michael Bolton Samir: No one in this country can ever pronounce my name right. It's not that hard: Na-ghee-na-na-jar. Nagheenanajar. Michael Bolton: Yeah, well, at least your name isn't Michael Bolton. Samir: You know, there's nothing wrong with that name. Michael Bolton: There *was* nothing wrong with it... until I was about twelve years old and that no-talent ass clown became famous and started winning Grammys. Samir: Hmm... well, why don't you just go by Mike instead of Michael? Michael Bolton: No way! Why should I change? He's the one who sucks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SarahC Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Lady Gaga? Really? I'm no fan of her music or her genre of music, but I can see the quality. The lyrics are way better than most brainless pop divas. She's the modern version of David Bowie. Notice I didn't say the equivalent of Bowie, because Bowie > Gaga. I'm actually fairly interested in seeing what she does going forward in the future. Who knows, she could turn out to be the next coming of Radiohead. I highly doubt it, but it won't be dull. i probably haven't listened to her stuff as close i should. that poker face song irritates the hell out of me. toby keith would be a good one. or better yet... brooks and dunn Quote Link to post Share on other sites
