50 Worst Artists In Music History

I think they did some great songs albeit not always his :o

Well, show me the way
To the next whisky bar
Oh, don't ask why
Oh, don't ask why

Show me the way
To the next whisky bar
Oh, don't ask why
Oh, don't ask why

For if we don't find
The next whisky bar
I tell you we must die
I tell you we must die
I tell you, I tell you
I tell you we must die

Oh, moon of Alabama
We now must say goodbye
We've lost our good old mama
And must have whisky, oh, you know why

Oh, moon of Alabama
We now must say goodbye
We've lost our good old mama
And must have whisky, oh, you know why

Well, show me the way
To the next little girl
Oh, don't ask why
Oh, don't ask why

Show me the way
To the next little girl
Oh, don't ask why
Oh, don't ask why

For if we don't find
The next little girl
I tell you we must die
I tell you we must die
I tell you, I tell you
I tell you we must die

Oh, moon of Alabama
We now must say goodbye
We've lost our good old mama
And must have whisky, oh, you know why

Indeed. Never liked Bowie's version.

Everywhere I fucking looked they were prancing about being the arses that they are - they made my shit weekend even worse - the fly on the lolly stick on the turd if you will.

yes. very very VERY wrong. Just listen to the original..


I have listened to the original, doesn't mean I can't enjoy a cover version. Even if it is Sylvian's lily-livered grunting :)

They are still no way in the top 50 worst ever...

Beautiful South should be in that list for one thing.

Prefab Sprout? Sting?

The list is a travesty.

And as for the inclusion of Japan...:eek:

And I kind of like David Sylvian's cover of I Second That Emotion. Is that wrong?

How that could be described as the worst Motown cover ever in a world where Phil Collins and Robson and Jerome remain unpunished eludes me.
 
Was gonna start another thread but LA Weekly has produced it's 20 worst bands

The entry on Fleet Foxes made me lol

A good band should be like Frosted Mini-Wheats, a substantive cereal loaded with fiber and whole grains made edible by delicious sugary coating. Fleet Foxes, unfortunately, are more like Wetabix, a healthful, bowel-movement-inducing breakfast option that skimps on taste. There's undoubtedly genuine musicianship behind this Seattle outfit, it's just wholly unpalatable, lacking even the most basic hooks and melodies necessary to sustain most listeners. Of course, white people aren't like most listeners, and will tolerate almost anything they're told is good for them; hence the group's popularity. Unlike Weetabix, however, there's not a shred of evidence suggesting Fleet Foxes prevent colorectal cancer

Further debate is probably unnecessary...
 
" In other words, LCD Soundsystem fans are the type of people who think buying their 10-year old kid a Public Image Ltd. record for his birthday is an example of good parenting"

isn't it?
 
I'm more into dance music than indie music. LCD are a 'band'. Why would anyone listening to them think they were listening to EDM ( :facepalm: )?
 
A couple of mates of mine are absolutely adamant that the Clash are the worst band in history. I've tried to suggest other candidates but they get really mad and insist that no other band is anywhere near as shit. I wouldn't go that far but I do think they are over-rated, mostly tuneless and have largely awful fans.

"Daddy was a bank-robber? No he wasn't Joseph, he was an architect."

Great to see 4 Non-blondes and The Spin Doctors in the list. "2 Princes" is the STUXNET of ear viruses.

Carter USM are another candidate.

LCD Soundsystem were fantastc. "Someone Great" is my favourite pop song of the past 15 years. The criticisms in the article were funny though.

I didn't call it EDM. I was referring to proper dance music. LCD is just watered down shit with trite hipster coals for the indie kids who need songs.
