Personally I am sick of seeing talentless trollops paged across the media. What are the point of them, why are the public so intrigued to read and see more about them. A lot of the celebrities in England have either got there kit off on the 'The Sun's' page 3, or slept with a Politician. Is that the best we have on offer?

I have had enough. Am I alone on this?

Anyone like him? He's one my favourite songwriters. To me, the greatest TRUE rock star of all time. Although he didn't invent rock and roll, nor did he embody it as toweringly as figures like Elvis Presley and Little Richard, but he did more than anyone else to shake it up, move it forward and instill it with a conscience. As the most daring and outspoken of the four Beatles, he helped shape the agenda of the Sixties - socially and politically, no less than musically. As a solo artist, he made music that alternately disturbed and soothed, provoked and sought community. As a human being, he served as an exemplar of honesty in his art and life. As Jann Wenner wrote in the foreword to a collection of writings entitled The Ballad of John and Yoko, "Of the many things that will be long remembered about John Lennon - his genius as a musician and singer, his wit and literary swiftness, his social intuition and leadership - among the most haunting was the stark, unembarrassed commitment of his life, his work and his undernourished frame to truth, to peace and to humanity."

I will be happy to hear what others may think. Thank you

i picked up a copy of this cd mistaking it for between the burried and me as they were in the same section at hmv however, one of the best mistakes i have ever made. they have fast become one of my top three bands supported by thrice and avenged sevenfold. i recommend them to anyone who likes hardcore. very talented musicians. if you are interested, download a song called "love lost in a hail of gun fire" just the opening riff is enough to make me satisfied with the whole cd.

For those from the original board my name is VERY familiair. LOL!

For those that dont know me, I am just your average mom from Alberta Canada who grew up on music and has been VERY fortunate to have been able to transfer my passion for music into a fledgling career as Managing Editor for a quarterly music magazine called Artist Launch Magazine.

Anything else you want to know, just ask.

Its great to see my first home for music discussion open again!!

Hi everyone, I have been recommended to join up. I enjoy listening to electronica music, with my favourite DJ being Lisa Lashes. Who I was fortunate enough to see live in London last New Years. See you around,

I love Verdi Requiem. I went to see it performed at St. Pauls Cathedral in London, by the London Philiharmonia Orchestra. Very powerful piece of music, that will always stick in my mind.

So Verdi is my memoriable composer. Who is yours, and why?

Anyone been to see them live recently? Any fans, or previous fans here?

I used to own the 'Spice World' album back in it's hayday. But know I have grown up a little, they really don't appeal to me anymore.

What do you think of Ol' Blue Eyes?

Do you think he is as important as he is made out? Or do you think his music is no longer relevant? traightface:

I am not a big fan of metal, but always willing to give genre's a go. Can you recommend a novice a good band to listen to? :embarassed:
