Yeah, that's another one that Neal blasphemed against.

And Urban Hymns.

I hereby propose a motion to have Neal declared "rubbish".

You've got almost every single one of those in the wrong category Neal.

Balls. With your small taste in music you're a fine one to talk.

Are ye serious??? *shock*

You never heard "Hunky Dory" "Ziggy Stardust" "Wish You Were Here" "Exile On Main Street" and "Let It Bleed?"

Yep. Never heard them.

I'm more worried by how he categorised the ones he has allegedly heard.

Allegedly?

Neal says "The Queen Is Dead" "Never Mind The Bollocks" and "Rubber Soul" is pure garbage. (And he doesn't like Coldpaly )

I don't like punk. Some loser onstage screaming about how he want's to become a revolutionary does nothing for me.

And I also don't like bands that send me to sleep. (Although I have heard Coldplay are a different band live.)

Yeah, that's another one that Neal blasphemed against.

It's not blasphemy. It's a crap album. And yes, I have listened to it.

You're rubbish too.

The Verve are like a bad version of coldplay. Dull.

Ummmmmmmmmmmm.......Errrrrrrr.........

[Orchestrazia Ardwick]

Yeah, seems an odd bit of hypocrisy. It seems I've heard more of those albums than him.

[Nealio]

It's not all about mainstream you know. Alex probably likes about 10 or 20 bands.

[Orchestrazia Ardwick]

And you seem to be on your own in your choices Neal. For once, I'm not the one being accused of being rubbish.

It's not all about mainstream you know. Alex probably likes about 10 or 20 bands.

Oh look, a pillock!

[Blugh Grant]

It's not all about mainstream you know. Alex probably likes about 10 or 20 bands.

You haven't heard "Hunky Dory" "Ziggy Stardust" "Wish You Were Here" or "Exile On Main Street". Your opinion is invalid.

Balls. I didn't comment on them.

[Orchestrazia Ardwick]

Yeah, but you're accusing me of having a "small" taste in music, then admitting you haven't heard some of the most famous albums of all time. As for your other previous idiotic comment, I listened to songs by more than ten different bands on my way to Tesco and back.

Best form of defence is attack, eh?

No Kinks no Jam no T Rex No Cream no Eric Clapton no John Mayal no Genesis - Although the Beatles have more albums than Oasis in that list (Beatles = 5 Oasis = 4) The surprise was Oasis are number one and two of the poll though I'd rather it was Oasis than the Libertines and Simply Red. As for the Stones they roll terribly low - Pink Floyd is number nine with Dark Side Of The Moon after the Clash and Keane. Uh!
