Does anybody remember a few years ago the bbc ran a poll to see who was the best band of all time and the Wolf Tones won!!! It was pure class.

You can still vote, if you feel the need,

I guess that solves that then

[patsh]

A top 5 consisting of 3 songs?

"We are the Champions" is one of Queen's lesser contrributions, so it must surely between the other 2:
I've always loved Kate Bush, but I think "Love will tear us apart" must get my vote.

Of course, looking at some of the utter dross that found it's way into the original list, one of the two pieces of sh*t will probably beat the 3 songs....

Joy Division out of that list. Why do they bother with these readers/listener polls anymore. Their just a load of kak. At least one's like the observer list from last year are picked by people who have some semblence of taste....

joy division best out of a bad selection

[the 12 th man]

there's a fcuckin quantam leap between ian curtis & co and the rest.
