You know you've hijacked the thread :p
In all seriousness, the top three are:
- The Beatles
- The Who
- JD/NO (I count them as the same when compiling asinine lists such as this to suit the avarice desires of an uneducated few who demand that I lower my appreciation of music to a simple "listing" of favorite bands, never accounting for the fact that quite honestly I feel this demeans the very nature of being a "music fan". After all, did internet users of the 1820s go around listing their favorite composers? Probably not, but then again a recent Google search led me to a list, dated 1822, which was written as follows...
"Johann Von Windenhammerjamsinjamjimbin-bom of Ulster's favorite Three Compoferf, Dated the Twenty-Fife of October 1822:
- Bach
- Brahms 3.Beethoven
With a fpecial mention for the talented Mr. Mozart, who unfortunately I waf unable to fee perform live" (the 'f-for-s' was unique to the writer, who had a lisp)
And so I feel the very nature of these lists demean the very nature of...oops, already said that. My bad)
:p
Okay...I guess it's time to be serious...
New order
Shakedown
Dido

Yeah, pretty much. You get used to it, though, and learn to hide the fact that you love DM so much you once let martin Gore have a reach-around at a men's toilet in Waukeegan........if you did such a thing, I mean. Not that you...or I for that matter, not that I would admit to such a thing...great game this weekend, Lions at Cowboys, huh? ![]()
Basically, all the English guys think DM and the Cure blow, while we smart Americans know that such bickering only serves to distract from the menace of Tears for Fears' recent reunion ![]()
