It's possible to "understand" Bowie and still think he sucks, ya know.

if someone says they don't atleast enjoy some ccr they are either lying to you or themselves.

― bb (bbrz), Friday, 6 January 2006 19:47 (eighteen years ago) link

Beefheart hereby vetoed.

No one's shot down Eno, either.

Of course I'd back Eno as well....

Everyone abolutely adores Blurt.

Ok, we're down to CCR now

wait a second, i like Eno ok. I was just overcome by the urge to say Fuck Eno! It's fun. FUCK ENO!

― Fritz Wollner (Fritz), Friday, 6 January 2006 20:39 (eighteen years ago) link

Johnny Cash
James Brown
Velvet Underground
Broken Social Scene--just kidding

― kornrulez6969 (TCBeing), Friday, 6 January 2006 20:43 (eighteen years ago) link

I do have to admit, though I'm not really a fan, that it's hard to hate Bob Marley.

Hate Bob Marley fans? There's nothing easier....

― jsoulja (jsoulja), Friday, 6 January 2006 20:45 (eighteen years ago) link

All right, so we're back to Eno and CCR.

And yeah, I've never meant anyone who doesn't like Cash.

― TRG (TRG), Friday, 6 January 2006 20:45 (eighteen years ago) link

Re Marley, scroll up to June 27

― TRG (TRG), Friday, 6 January 2006 20:47 (eighteen years ago) link

Eno is tainted by Bono.
Disqualified!

― Michael J McGonigal (mike mcgonigal), Friday, 6 January 2006 20:48 (eighteen years ago) link

whatever - he was barely even a performing musician when he was producing u2.

M.I.A.?

(Jumps in getaway car!)

― TRG (TRG), Friday, 6 January 2006 20:56 (eighteen years ago) link

has somebody mentioned the Talking Heads?

― kornrulez6969 (TCBeing), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:08 (eighteen years ago) link

There be lots of contrarian, irascible sonsabitches on this board, so I find the premise of this thread quixotic in the extreme.

― o. nate (onate), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:12 (eighteen years ago) link

SOMEbody got a word-of-the-day calendar this christmas!!!

― don't start a RYE-OTT! (plsmith), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:15 (eighteen years ago) link

ha ha!

― jsoulja (jsoulja), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:17 (eighteen years ago) link

Wow- I never knew Lee Perry hates on Bob Marley. That does it for me- I gotta go with Lee Perry....

― jsoulja (jsoulja), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:18 (eighteen years ago) link

If I had to pick one, though, my money is on Johnny Cash. Truly, who has the heart to hate on the dead guy?

xpost- phear my word powah

― o. nate (onate), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:19 (eighteen years ago) link

lee perry may hate on bob marley, but he also produced my favorite BM&W song, "mr brown," and he also burned his own studio down.

im not saying he's not awesome, but he probably says a lot of things.

― don't start a RYE-OTT! (plsmith), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:21 (eighteen years ago) link

my money is on Johnny Cash

while i certainly dont hate cash, i am SO SICK of hearing about him right now (flashback to 2004's ray charles adulation/backlash), ill veto him.

CONTRARIAN

― o. nate (onate), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:23 (eighteen years ago) link

i explained it carefully! i like a lot of his stuff, but i just cant get motivated to support this guy when all of his mostly-same sounding (usually good, sometimes really great) music has saturated american popular culture for like 2 months.

― don't start a RYE-OTT! (plsmith), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:26 (eighteen years ago) link

Is it too early to pronounce CCR the winner?

― TRG (TRG), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:27 (eighteen years ago) link

im getting out of here! CCR wins in my mind!

Stand up to the crowd! Who cares what they think. If you like something, it shouldn't matter whether everyone else does or not. Who is more of a creature of the crowd: the one who sheepishly follows the crowd taste, or the one who always has a knee-jerk reaction against it?

xpost: i'll go along with ccr

― o. nate (onate), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:29 (eighteen years ago) link

Run! I'm right behind ya!

There will never be a winner. Shangri-Las still comfortably loved.

― Billy Pilgrim (Billy Pilgrim), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:30 (eighteen years ago) link

hey guys, I don't like rock but I like CCR!

― oops (Oops), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:32 (eighteen years ago) link

shit i should've used all caps so they might've heard me as they were fleeing.

― oops (Oops), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:33 (eighteen years ago) link

Guys, guys, guys- this is already settled.

David Bowie won this thread.

― jsoulja (jsoulja), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:35 (eighteen years ago) link

I like David Bowie. I like some of his songs a lot. But to say that I love him seems like a stretch; however, for the sake of not being contrarian, I'm willing to let it pass.

― o. nate (onate), Friday, 6 January 2006 21:37 (eighteen years ago) link

check out may27th, j.

― oops (Oops), Friday, 6 January 2006 22:04 (eighteen years ago) link

or don't! lalalalala

Love is more than the lack of hate

― GET EQUIPPED WITH BUBBLE LEAD (ex machina), Friday, 6 January 2006 22:10 (eighteen years ago) link

The lack of advocates for that band that will "change your life" is suprising.

― mox twelve (Mox twleve), Friday, 6 January 2006 22:22 (eighteen years ago) link

but laughing gnome aside, david bowie is shite. he wins nowt.

― frenchbloke (frenchbloke), Friday, 6 January 2006 23:17 (eighteen years ago) link

The Faders

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Friday, 6 January 2006 23:20 (eighteen years ago) link

doesn't everyone love Al Green?

― gear (gear), Friday, 6 January 2006 23:22 (eighteen years ago) link

also, fuck a fogerty in the eye and fuck ccr

― gear (gear), Friday, 6 January 2006 23:23 (eighteen years ago) link

Bowie has kind of survived these threads, hasn't he? Is there anyone on ILM who does not like Bowie?
-- Geir Hongro (geirhon...), May 27th, 2005.

Somebody called?
-- Marcello Carlin (marcellocarli...), May 27th, 2005.

This was not a qualifying response then, and it isn't now.

Also, this next comment is too late:

but laughing gnome aside, david bowie is shite. he wins nowt.
-- frenchbloke (frenchblok...), January 6th, 2006.

Sorry, Frenchie- too late. We already have a winner. The door prize is the sight of it slamming in your face...

― jsoulja (jsoulja), Friday, 6 January 2006 23:39 (eighteen years ago) link

Woah woah hang on, surely it's not too late for me to shoot down CCR? Shoot shoot, there.

New nominee (I have no illusion that there will not be loads of haters, but I need them to SPEAK UP so I can KNOW MINE ENEMIES): Kristin Hersh
