I saw a bit of Radio 1's 'Big' weekend blah on telly and have to say if I waked into a pub in plaistow and saw a skeletal Berkerley Menthol hag doing bad karaoke I'd be less scared. Have never liked this deeply cyincal woman but this was just creepy. Also having 'urban dancers' who you think still graffiti the subways like nothing has changed in urban music since 'Beat Street' in 1985 truly deserves to be pushed in front of an angry train anyway.

Horrible. Like waking up next to the cold corpse of Graham Norton and not remembering the night before

...yeah i started a music thread about how rubbish she was...

it was all the mroe depressing when Zone Lowe started banging on about how amazing it was, fucking goon.


It seems to me that Madonna's main strength is working with the right people.

That's not meant as a criticism but it does seem that how good or bad her songs are generally depends on the people she works with.

Obviously her other talent has been making herself really fucking famous. She's not a bad singer, she's a decent enough dancer and she was probably reasonably good-looking back in the day but basically she's got self-publicity down to a tee, whcih is kind of what you need to be a pop star.

I honestly don't mean any of the above as negative. She's realised the music business is a business and handled herself extremely well to keep herself at the top for 20 years but she's done it as much through strength of personality and making the most of what she has than she has through any unique talent.

This is my point with Bjork.

*runs and hides*


yep, she is rubbish.

i really like the chords to borderline tho


more so

when I realised that Radio 1 advert on the right was looping for 5 mins


i wish

she would put her groin away, it puts me off my food


She wouldnt look out of place

on top of a museum. All sinews. Yuck. Oh and shes awful. All the arguments based on her being a good businesswoman, while true, are not worth repeating (its funny how these arguments seem to resemble her own self-publicity...) and still make me feel ill.


...

What exactly has she ever been considered talented at in the first place. Y'know, apart from being 'it'.


I find her.....

embarrasing.
She really needs to act her age and stop gyrating about the place all the time.
Her music of late has been utter dross!


I think Bjork isn't that good either and I don't care who thinks that

live with it, single men into small women but just never actually pull.

And also Zane Lowe is the reason more than anything that music is so utterly and iredeemably boring at the moment. I hate him so much


What, about the men who like Bjork

meaning the ones who aren't gay that is - just from experience - dull men who think 'kookie' girls are somehow interesting when usually its concealing somehting much much darker.


Nope

The notion music is made boring by a radio personality


well he probably has a lot to do in terms of what's played

as a 'champion of new music' and that depresses me somewhat - having someone who looks like a skater who probably thinks the Foo Fighters rule over Nirvana just makes me wish I could switch off forver if I knew I could take him with me and save at least 345,000 pairs of disappointed and indifferent ears.

RULES


Zane Lowe plays boring music

Just don't listen to it, right?
