Haha no I did, Big Al just fucked up quoting me.

And what I mean is, that if all you listen to after 1979 is Bon Jovi, and you tote around that sort of opinion seriously, than you are part of the reason people like Eric Clapton, who have done nothing bust dust off old blues licks and ruin Bob Marley songs way too much credit, and overshadowing bands who deserve it. I guess not ruining music....but just being another body claiming to be into music, and then I come to find out hes just another boring Clapton fan. Basically, there was a rock critic who once said, "Nostalgia is the most insidious corruptor of great rock n' roll", and this is sort of an example of that.

So, no, the Beatles aren't destroying music, but I despise Clapton and for me, hes been ruining music for 40+ years.

wholeheartedly agreed, he has given the world nothing but hackneyed blues licks and it is disgusting who many little fan boys fawn over him.
Clapton is god? i think not
I wouldnt include him in a top 1000 guitarists list let a lone in the top ten as he so often is, boring as ****

Okay...I couldn't agree more with everything this guy had to say. This playlist reads like the Time Life "Best of Classic Rock" compilation -- that is to say, overplayed and boring as ****. Why not throw on a little Skynyrd or Doors while you're at it? This list wouldn't be complete without Sweet Home Alabama or Come On Baby Light My Fire. Right? Right.[/QUOTE]

Bon jovi is not a song rtard.

Quit the name calling please. He was giving an opinion and made no personal slight at you.

The amount of airplay a song gets has nothing to do with its quality...and I think it's attitudes like yours that are poisonous to indie music. Acting as though liking different things than what someone else makes you a genius or an authority and then attacking or dismissing them...way to promote non-mainstream music and the culture of fans around it to new people.

A fairly generic and obvious list but stick around on here and your new list would be unrecognisable in 6 months

Yes but will that be because of a change in taste, or fear of listing what they really like?
