[magneze]

I cannot believe that is a serious top 100. dido? alanis? oasis? coldplay?

and why is fat of the land on there and jilted generation not?

utter rubbish.

I agree. Jilted Generation is fantastic, fat of the land is bobbins.

 

[holden]

I have 71 of these, but what a formulaic, unimaginative top 100, typical of these programmes. Tick all the necessary boxes, so that no-one gets' "excluded."
Of course it would be too much to expect to see the likes of Can, Richard Thompson, Laura Nyro, Husker Du, The Go-Betweens, Otis Redding etc, etc.

But no Van Morrison??!!

 

[lunatrick]

31.....not bad.

is this the top 100 as voted for by channel 4 viewers?

 

[northernhord]

Bout 20 odd of em

Of course it would be too much to expect to see the likes of Can, Richard Thompson, Laura Nyro, Husker Du, The Go-Betweens, Otis Redding etc, etc.

You had to spoil it by mentioning Van Morrison, didn't you?
