Here's a band who would probably not be happy if you told them they were pop really...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gV6noHEd6XE

These would probably be a bit miffed, as well:

"you might as well do Tom Waits."

It was coming, ~ jwf ~ , it was coming. Just a question of which track to choose.


Magwitch, [Unsuitable/Broken URL removed by Moderator] brings up the following message. 'The URL contained a malformed video ID' (a bit like mine, I suppose ). Would you mind reposting, or giving us the details?

Mods, "[Unsuitable/Broken URL removed by Moderator]". Are dead links dangerous?


Ed might have chosen this one, ~ jwf ~.

Tom Waits - Chocolate Jesus

Rudest Elf,

Thank you for the welcome, & even at my advanced years, I can see Coldplay is a plague to rock (Currently, I'm getting ready for the sh*tstorm of critisism for that comment).

Musically, I have no disagreement, but affectively, they suck. They are alternative of the softest kind, no hard edges in sight.

Rock for me = Rolling Stones, & Tom Waits Bloody rocks - whatever the album - especially 'Whistling Past the Graveyard'. Although his best album is 'Rain Dogs'.

I remember once seeing Coldplay described as "rock music for bed wetters".

Although I'm being censored elsewhere on here
MR D
that made me laugh mr arris off. Cheers Mr D
