Not a thing by the Go-Betweens and far too much shit by The Beatles http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/series/1 000-songs-everyone-must-hear   Geoff Holmes Member Username: Geoff Post Number: 467 Registered: 05-2005 Posted on Tuesday, March 17, 2009 - 08:17 am:    Another list. That Catttle and Cane doesn't rate a mention says a lot about the obvious Anglocentric thinking from someone who writes from the U.K. I take it you mean shit Beatles or do you mean the Beatles are shit or too much stuff by the Beatles, or that the Beatles are stuffed??? I'm waiting for your take on it all skulldisco.....   spence Member Username: Spence Post Number: 2963 Registered: 05-2005 Posted on Tuesday, March 17, 2009 - 09:40 am:    1000 songs my hairy ass!! What a waste of time. Oh I really must hear that, I must hear this... Betcha there won't be any real reggae, or any McCarthy in there!   Andrew Kerr Member Username: Andrew_k Post Number: 417 Registered: 04-2005 Posted on Tuesday, March 17, 2009 - 10:39 am:    Just ignore it good people! Find something better to do with your time. I blame 'Q' magazine for this obsession with music lists. And it is a very male thing too.   Rob Brookman Member Username: Rob_b Post Number: 1362 Registered: 08-2006 Posted on Tuesday, March 17, 2009 - 05:33 pm:    I think it's time for a "Top 10 Reasons I Hate Lists."   Jerry Clark Member Username: Jerry Post Number: 892 Registered: 08-2004 Posted on Tuesday, March 17, 2009 - 06:05 pm:    How about a list of overplayed songs. There's a good 800 in the 1,000 in question, thanks for nothing Der Beadles.   Andrew Ashbridge Member Username: Burgers Post Number: 12 Registered: 05-2005 Posted on Tuesday, March 17, 2009 - 11:10 pm:    I think The Beatles are shit, geoff. What I actually meant is I Want to Hold Your Hand is my least favourite song of all time (apart from possibly I Won't Let You Down by H2O). It's just rank rotten in every way. I'm English and I hate virtually all English music pre-punk. Particularly Murkeybeat.   Geoff Holmes Member Username: Geoff Post Number: 468 Registered: 05-2005 Posted on Wednesday, March 18, 2009 - 07:47 am:    Oh dear....another one who would even deny the holocaust...   Stuart Wilson Member Username: Stuart Post Number: 273 Registered: 10-2006 Posted on Wednesday, March 18, 2009 - 09:33 am:    But he writes very clearly for a 10-year old.   Michael Bachman Member Username: Michael_bachman Post Number: 1398 Registered: 01-2005 Posted on Wednesday, March 18, 2009 - 01:55 pm:    Pretty lame list, it's even got a Wham! song in the Politics and protest section.
