The Who and the Rolling Stones were actually The Beatles competition back in the day, Moot Point.
Is Moot Point your name? No? Well, its your new one.

Maná. Great tunes (though I think many of them sound the same). Consistently good.

For everyone whose never heard of switchfoot (you really arent missing anything). Here is their "enormous" hit single that took its rightful place on buzz ballads along with every other cute little power ballad.

draw your own conclusions on their sound, posting a video is what should have been done from the get go

Elliott Smith, duh. Shoulda thought of that before.

I found Smith last night actually at the urging of a friend. I really dig his song "A Fond Farewell" i know i know, like the single real original right? well, its not my typical style and i dont pretend to be a big fan of his, just a really good song. Real sad that he passed though.

The beetles are one of the most polar groups around you either love them or hate them. But either way you can't deny the impact they had on the music scene in their time. They became so popular that Paul and John could have wiped there ass with their instruments and sold more records than some really good band now. Ex. I am the Walrus. Just a bunch of random crap, but even now as I type the song is getting stuck in my head. So inherit the throne, I think not! Whatever vain they hit in the musical era has long dried up and any bands that want to rival that impact had better come harder than re-fried Hanson ie Jonas Brothers.

Yeah, its like you're either hot or your cold with them. Sometimes I talk to people and they're like "****s hot bro" and sometimes they're like "nah I'm cool man."

My favorite songs are "Cold Turkey" and "Set fire to the Lot."

Today I think Wilco is the closest in my mind, at least musically. But as someone wrote, noone can have the same effect on the world, at least not with Lady Gaga as the most selling artist in the world atm.
