But of course for an anarcho-collective like Chumbawamba, they're doing stuff, it just might not be obvious to those watching smiley - winkeye

Blazin' Squad

Hardly "blazing"

More than a squad if you ask me!

A combined IQ of the oldest member as well, as far as I can tell.

S Club 7. Only one of them (well, two if I'm feeling generous to Rachael Stevens) could sing, the others just stood there and moved a bit

'Some Girls' by Rachel Stevens is a CHOON!

Yes but More, More, More is a travesty that should be destroyed

You can name at least 1 Top Ten hit for any band/artist that was absolute PANTS compared to the (majority) of the rest.

David Bowie: The Laughing Gnome

Rod Stewart: Legs

Queen: Innuendo

And the list goes on...

Me too. If I was to pick a well-known 'bad' Queen song it would probably be - ermmm - Invisable Man.

Yes I agree

Invisible Man was ok - perhaps I'll retract my statement.

In fact, when you think about it, it's nigh on impossible to pick a poor Queen Top 10 hit.

Must say something.

Some *were* better than others but none were complete, unlistenable dross.

Reefgirl, don't argue with the man! Clearly he has seen the light, and recants his previous accusation.

Let's not make him change his mind again.

Was innuendo about limes on dutch tv then?

Showaddywaddy
Darts
[hangers-on to a man] literally in the case of Dan Hegarty of Darts, whose party piece at gigs was to go mountaineering around the auditorium. Wouldn't get away with it now under the Health and Safety police!

There were a fair few surplus in Darts and Showaddywaddy, the only 2 that seemed to have anything to do were the lead singer and Dion Dublin's dad

That Bicycle song by Queen is a travesty.

What about Polyphonic Spree, are all those members needed?
