Bay City Rollers
The Osmands

Actually, I was just messing - obviously. Everyone knows it's just bollocks because everyone knows it was only ever Val Doonican. :S

Adam and the Ants were one of the worst bands ever.

Stand and Deliver. Prince Charming... great songs. Great gimmicky poncy songs.

You can either take that back, or put your dukes up. Your choice.

(But I agree - Prince Charming especially is dreadful, especially when it's advertising Pimms)

*U2

*The Monkees

*Sheryl Crow

*Eric Clapton

*My favourite musician of all time is: George Harrison.

They were fun.
I will not be posting my fave bands as people will take the piss, because I have shit taste in my music.

I do like; Betty Boo, Tears for Fears and Carter USM

I like it and I don't care what anyone says because ridicule is nothing to be scared of! :P

I used to love Carter. Ah, Jimbob and Fruitbat.

I shouldn't have needed hindsight to realise they were shit.

Mind you, at that time I also liked Senseless Things, the Levellers, Frank and Walters and Ned's Atomic Dustbin. :$

They Might Be Giants are good too.

I like one of their songs, I think it's called 'The Malcolm In The Middle Theme Tune'.

F&W are fabulous!

They might be giants are brill, but "Boss of me" is one of their weaker songs. The theme for The Big Bang Theory is better.

Nonsense. Kings of the Wild Frontier was a very good album. Glamtastic stuff.

"...only idiots ignore the truth" Cool

Prince Charming is spotty, but has some moments. They should be remembered as a breath of fresh air, though and for the one consistently very good album they released.

The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band.

I "assisted" with the naming of said group. Not much of a claim to fame, thinking about it.
Errr

Mine would probably be

Divine Comedy
Jellyfish
Joby Talbot
It Bites
Francis Dunnery
Kino
XTC
My Chemical Romance
Duran Duran
And maybe Eminem whose new album is very good indeed. Word.

Maybe we have a friend in common then. Legs Larry lives in my village.

Sadly, not Mr Smith. Neil Innes.
