EFK's Favourite Music

[Rob]

*slaps forehead*

Why did this have to turn into a massive heated discussion.

I thought people would be mature enough not to post snide remarks about others music tastes. I foolishly expected everyone to be that mature.

If you have a suggestion on how to improve my task, then PRIVATE MESSAGES ME. Don't cause unnecessary drama on here.

[Rob]

Okay I'm putting my Mod hat on now.

You have something to say about someones music taste? Bite your tongue.

You have something to say about my idea? Bite your tongue.

Basically, I don't want any more NEGATIVE posting on this thread. Cliff, I'm laying down the law here. I've been trying my absolute hardest to get everyone on the forums to be comfortable with posting in these music forums without it being shot down. I'm pissed off beyond belief that within a night you've shot down eveyrthing I've been trying for.

With that being said, this is now a list of Top Bands, simply because of the altering in Songs. However, please continue to post your 15 songs because there is something I want to do with Songs at the end of this.


Thanks,
Rob.

I donno man, you don't know what I listen too. I mean, fair point to my rock side, most of the songs I listen too are generic, but as far as raps concerned, I listen to at least 85% of unknown or local guys from around here, 10% of stuff from the 90's, and only maybe 5% thats featured in popular culture today.

Local = indie. so you listen to gay stuff apparently.

1. Radiohead
2. The White Stripes
3. Tool

If it's top 15 bands... I'd have to totally change my list up.  Is that what it is now?

I used indy bands in referece to the indy rock that you listen too, as rap is predominatly 'artist' , not a band. I see the comparison, and my statements a tad hypcrital, but I listen to a lot of non mainstream rap, but I CANT stand indy rock, and thats what I referrred to comparing with Dr. Dre. (ala most of the bands in your top 20 list in your signature)

Yeah, listen to the guy that actually paid attention! The top bands will be based off your top songs and there is something I have in mind for the top songs overall!

[Fnord]

Yeah, but my list of top songs is way different than my list of top bands.   

[Rob]

Doesn't matter Fnord. Stop fucking the thread up. Unfortunately I wasn't here to stop all the pissing from last night. I'm here to stop this one though.

[Gary]

just do two different fucking lists..one with top 15 bands, and one with top 15 songs..its simple enough.

[Fnord]

Look, I was just stating that my list of bands and songs are different.  No need to swear at me and talk down to me.  Sorry I even participated.  Erase my list from this thread.  I'm done.

Thank you Gary.

Fnord, quit being a child about it, okay? I made one simple request out-lined in my original post. I really don't see what the problem is and why you've got to suddenly start crying because somebody has said something that hasn't gone your way. I will be using your post and your list is exactly what I want.

This about which songs are in the top 100 by each band. It's not about your favourite band, that doesn't concern me in this thing I'm doing. It's the most popular bands based on songs and the most popular songs.

[Flins.]

Not in any order.


1. "Don't Believe a Word" by Thin Lizzy - Raised on this genre of music by my dad, one of the songs that really stuck out for me.
2. "Pale Blue Eyes" by The Velvet Underground - Love it, nothing else needs saying.
3. "Red at Night" by The Gaslight Anthem - Its a cover, and probably not deserving of going on a 'greatest ever' list, but i've been listening to it constantly for the last two years or so and i haven't tired of it yet.
4. "Where Is My Mind?" by Pixies - Nothing to say about, just really like it.
5. "Peace Frog" by The Doors - Blend of Blues with the organ, and Morrisons voice, just works for me.
6. "Rising Force" by Yngwie Malmsteen - The song that got me interested in Hard Rock and still my favourite.
7. "Superstition" by Stevie Wonder - Most infectious song ever, i can't keep still when this song plays.
8. "Have You Ever Seen The Rain?" by Creedence Clearwater Revival - I love Fogerty's vocals, classic 70's song.
9. "Darkness, Darkness" by The Youngbloods - Not a fan of the rest of their work, but i adore this song.
10. "Born Under A Bad Sign" by Albert King - Just a great blues song.
11. "Can't Stand Me Now" by The Libertines - I usually get bored of these kind of songs, but this one has stuck.
12. "Comfortably Numb" by Pink Floyd - Epic. That is all, bit of an obvious this one though heh.
13. "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" by Daft Punk - Some of the interchanges in rhythm/beat are great.
14. "Lithium" by Nirvana - I was obsessed with this song as a teenager, still think its brilliant.
15. "Dinosaurs Will Die" by NOFX - The greatest song ever written. Heh, purely nostalgic, up-beat choice. My favourite song through-out my teen years.
