At least with Duran Duran, they've done some great singles. Unlike the Stereophonics. :lol: (Oh shit.... you don't love me now, Liv , do you....?) :cry:

Thank fuck for that! I actually bought one of their albums a few years ago..Honest! their singles take me back to my childhood years, but if anyone asks me if I bought it, I say it's for the birds if I throw any parties:laugh:

Cheers Klumpy!! Too nice of you really.......I prefer it when you slag me off!!! :lol:

My other bands would also be The Boos, but for the same reason as you GK.

Existing bands I'd have to resort to are my second and third loves SAINT ETIENNE and STEREOLAB

Both damn fine. Both GODLIKE . (Sarah Cracknell is a true babe :love: ....and I've kissed her once or twice - on the lips!!! - utter heaven, how could I ever wash my mouth again after that???!!! :laugh: ) And Stereolab because, they never let me down - always coming up with the goods. And their latest album Sound-Dust is well and truly lush. Any other Stereolab admirers here?

Now why is it that all Saint Etienne fans, bar me, have either talked to Sarah or kissed her? Martin, was that kissing part of some fanzine interview or was it plain stalking?? :lol:

Sarah and myself actually kissed in return for my glowing review of their gig a few years back (the Good Humor tour in May 1998) I'm a very respectable guy when it comes to ladies - I keep my dignity. :nod: Stalking is the undertaking of twats with shrivelled dicks. :D

Seeing as you were nice about Duran, in the words of Dolly Parton..."I will always love you"

As for the Phonics, I do like them, but they arent really in the same league as NO and Duran when it comes to fave bands.... Saw them earlier this year, but didnt bother getting tickets for their next set of gigs. I like the tunes, but i think my fetish has a great deal more to do with Kelly Jones than the actual sound they produce. So Martin, if it makes you happy you can abuse them all you like, just lay off Kelly and dont even think about making any Welsh jokes.... lol

Muffster, his name was Kevin Adams, but because Kevin Rowland was the singer, he changed his name, because they didn't want 2 kevins in the band..for the life of me, I can't remember what he changed his name to!

Ah, Billy Adams. Kevin Rowland done the same with Kevin Archer when they first started, he became Al Archer. They were a great band alright, their last album 'Don't Stand Me Down' remains a classic to this day, undiscovered though it may be! :smoking:

Liv :angel:

Don't worry Liv dear - Kelly's singing just isn't my cup of tea, but ,please, NEVER in my worst excessive moments will I go so low as to diss the Welsh. EVER! The only Welshman whom I dislike irrationally is probably Tom Jones. (ugh!) But I've had many a great time visiting places in Wales - Portmeirion is a lovely place (TO ALL YOU OTHER NEW ORDER POSTERS HERE - IF YOU CAN DO SO, GO TO PORTMEIRION! What a place. They filmed THE PRISONER there in the late 60's and loads of fans still make their annual pilgrimage down there ...cool place just for chilling out.) and all those towns on the Lleyn Peninsula are lovely. Do you know, back at my parent's in the Wirral (across the river from Liverpool) we get all the Welsh TV channels as well - my fave Welsh programme used to be Pobol Y Cwm (ha ha don't laugh!) even though it's all in the home tongue. I sometimes watch Welsh TV cuz I just like the lilting sound of the language (Super Furry animals singer Gruff Rhys has the most amazing Welsh lilt in his voice. One of my best friends Sylvia comes from Blackwood (same place as the Manics) but she's married a Canadian and has since emigrated to Edmonton, Alberta.) I wish I could speak a bit of Welsh. I mean, I'm currently trying to learn Dutch so when I finally live in Amsterdam I won't be such a pig-ignorant British asshole. :)

Anyway, back to Tom Jones - I said this earlier in a much older thread, but I'll repeat it, cos it might make you giggle. An old flatmate of mine hates him with a passion to the extent that she once said - and I quote - "I'll be more than happy to throw my Knickers at Tom Jones anytime - as long as I've shat in them first!" :lol:

So, apart from Old Creaky-Hipped Groaner Jonesy (Senior.), I've NO anti-Welsh tendencies at all. And, please don't interpret this little speech as grovelling either.....it isn't!

You know something? Some of you were right all along!! What was I thinking, trying to fool everybody by going under two entities at the same time?? Blame the spliffs I had in Amsterdam.....they really did make me feel likesomewhat schizophrenic......ha! :D

Okay, so the game's up.....I am one and the same person - even though some of you twigged a lot earlier on! But it was fun while it lasted....wasn't it?

Anyway Liv, what the alter-ego said there still stands - even if it does look rather dodgy. Ha ha ha ha ha ha..... :lol: :lol:

My God Liv.....how can you possibly expect me to fathom that ?!!! [Digression: I love Super Furry Animals - and a lot of their songs still have Welsh titles. It's great that they do this, because it means pig-ignorant English types like us get really frustrated cuz (a) we can't ever have a hope in hell of being able to pronounce the words, let alone (b) understanding what it all means. But still, it's an education, and I'm up for the challenge.]

Just one problem Liv, how much time am I allowed to have in order to work that one out??? :laugh:

Martin. (I think Gary is dead now)

57 replies, and nobody has mentioned The Fall yet :(

I'd say Husker Du, who of course have been sadly no more for 13 years. Grant Hart is a flawed genius.

Failing that, Radiohead, Manics, St.Etienne.....the list is very long and very good !
