Average artists/bands with one AMAZING song

[j00ni]

I've remembered a corker

Beastie Boys - Fight for your Right.

That's exactly what I was thinking when I read the thread title, but thought you might disagree

Shows what I know

/edit:
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Freebird
Moody Blues - Nights In White Satin
Coldplay - Fix You

 

[Gilly]

I hope that smiley is genuine, because I despair at the thought of somebody who's supposed to be intelligent coming out with a remark like that.

I was serious actually, don't get me wrong a couple of his songs are catchy, but he's nothing on Oasis.

Hot Hot Heat - Middle Of Nowhere.

Although, goodnight is also pretty good.

Very, very good tracks

Never Heard Of It - Satisfied
New Found Glory - My Friends Over You (this song just makes me want to get up a jump about)
OK Go - Hello, My Trecherous Friends
The Starting Line - The B List, or Suprise Suprise
Story Of The Year - Razorblades.
The F Up's - I Don't Know.

I'm gonna throw caution to the wind and say Papa Roach with "Blood Brothers" and "Last Resort"

Not Listening is a pretty good track aswell

 

[benjo plz.]

Lynyrd Skynyrd - Freebird

You're saying Leonard Skinner were/are crap? what about Sweet Home Alabama?

 

[atpbx]

Behold, I stumble into the conversation with THESE entries:

Athlete - Wires.
Blur- To the End.
Fleetwood mac - Go your own way.
Feeder- Just a day.
INXS- Never Tear us Apart.
Kula Shakur - Shower your love.
Primal Scream - Rocks.
Radio Head - Creep.
Texas- Put your arms around me.
Ash- Lose Control.

 

[Arcade Fire]

Blur- To the End.

What about Charmless Man, End of a Century, This is a Low, Out of Time, Brothers and Sisters... the list is endless!

Primal Scream - Rocks.

I think that you need to listen to XTRMNTR. Kill All Hippies, MBV Arkestra, Swastika Eyes... all top tunes.

Radio Head - Creep.

Haha... controversial . 'Creep' is by far one of their worst songs in my opinion.

Ash- Lose Control.

I think that the first half of the Intergalactic Sonic 7"s collection proves you wrong. Ash were always a singles band rather than an album band (possible exception of 1977) but by jove, their singles were top notch.

No, as per the thread, i am saying Lynyrd Skynyrd are an average band with one amazing song (Freebird)

[G|mp]

INXS- Never Tear us Apart.

Nah, Kick was a great album

And as for Kula Shaker i still listen to K to this day

 

[Belmit]

And as for Kula Shaker i still listen to K to this day

Me too. The Hush B-side called 'Under the Hammer' is my favourite song of theirs by far though. I disagree with so many of the choices in this thread that I've stopped trying to argue against it.

 

[Nitefly]

Radio Head - Creep.

*Can. Worms. Etc.*

Words fail me!

 

[ElvisFan]

I was serious actually, don't get me wrong a couple of his songs are catchy, but he's nothing on Oasis.

I'll wager that you've only heard the same tired old hits of his that most people have heard. They're just scratching the surface of a back catalogue that contains 600+ songs.

You're joking right?...right?!.

[Gilly]

Basically, your opinion is no longer valid in the music forum having slagged off The Chemical Brothers, Beastie Boys, the best Radiohead, and all metal music

Die scum!!!!!!!

 

[Gilly]

Aint my fault you have zero taste in music, but don't feel bad, I know plenty of tone deaf people who lead perfectly average lives. I've sure you'll be fine

 

[King4aDay]

Do I really have to say this yet again?!

Kid A is about a thousand miles better than anything else rhead have produced.

Anybody who writes off post-Bends rhead is an utter, utter philistine.

[NB: Philistine: anti-intellectual: smug and ignorant and indifferent or hostile to artistic and cultural values. Near synonyms include: boor, churl, barbarian, and yahoo - wheres dmpoole?!]

And no arguing about the relative merits of opinion, I am right and Gilly is staggeringly wrong.

And I'm not even that much of a rhead fan, haha!
