Bowie Bowie Bowie! Heaps better than smelliot smith!

I read a post on this forum (posted by a mod) that said about a Tool album (which one I can't remember, a new one I think) that if you didn't think it was a masterpiece then you hadn't listened to it enough. Well, in that same vein of stupidity, that can apply to Bowie!

So, If you don't vote for Bowie, you just havn't listened to him enough! Withdraw your misguided votes and point them to Bowie!

BOWIE WINS!

Why don't you namedrop Montverdi or Bach instead?

I really wanna see Inuzaka Skysword's reply to this.

I am, because that post bothers me.

Mozart is one of the most versatile composers ever, try writing a sonata then an opera then a string quintet, its ****ing hard, much, much harder than anything Elliott Smith has ever done.

To say Mozart is not an amazing musician is a extremely naive thing to do, no offense, I mean just because he was doesn't play the hip indie music that all the kids are listening to doesn't mean he wasn't a good musician, he just lived about 250 years ago.

He didn't write lyrics or sing!

Ooo. Gotcha there.

I respect classical, it's got some wonderful pieces, but it doesn't mean we should hold classical composers above all else. They were just the style at the time.

I was going by Inuzaka's standards of amazing.
