Brits Vs Yanks

TrampInaTux · 03-15-2006, 02:22 AM

Okay then, let's change this to a global thing. I made it only Brits v Yanks because I thought that it was a bigger issue without a load of unknown, ultra-foreign bands floating around. I didn't want that basically because I don't listen to anything outside of Great Britain and the USA. But if you lot want it changed, then go ahead. So people, who makes the better music? The Brits, Yanks, Canadians, Croatians, French, Norweigans, Italians, Germans, Spanish, Portugese.......

Im from Tennessee, which for Beale Street, The Grand Ole Opry and Sun Records alone is far superior to any other US state and every nation in terms of musical greatness, we have rock n roll, blues, country and bluegrass, what do you german fockers have?...polka and techno?...So all of you, bow down before me, for i am your superior master.

We also have a lot of great rock bands to our credit, like Big Star and uh.......uh......Well, thats all we need, because Big Star rules. =D

Anyway, Iceland deserves a mention for Bjork and Sigur Ros alone, both of whom i am obsessed with at the moment.

Though i just got into Ros a couple of months ago, i have been into Bjork for a very long time.

It doesn't matter if they're making good music now, the point is that they're British and they have made good music in the past. And when I was on about his crackpot views, I was fighting back for him contradicting me. I was not very impressed by the way he tried to put me down like that.

I didn't actually say that they were crap, I merely stated that the can't be that popular if I've never heard of them, you know like The Beatles or Elton John (everyone's heard of them).

But why did he try to force a band name into conversation when we were having an argument??

I didn't know what the hell he was trying to tell me.

How an I contradicting myself?? I never said that a band had to be making good music now for them to matter, I said that they have made good music in the past. And I think The Prodigy are very good, even though their last major hit was probably back in 1997 with 'Breathe'.
