Average artists/bands with one AMAZING song

[Gilly]

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

Nor am I. I would be, but only their second album is worth listening to.

 

[Arcade Fire]

Some people say that the war on terror is the very definition of a hopeless cause.

I don't think that those people ever saw Gilly discussing music, though.

 

[atpbx]

Hmmm
-Paranoid Android
-No Surprises
-Karma Police
-Street Spirit
-Pyramid Song

...................and the Lord said "behold cymatty, you condem yourself by your own hand."

 

[Gilly]

Its true, it may be a hopeless cause though. I simply can't leave it though. I can't write you all off. Some of you may have some hidden taste struggling to get out, and I'd like to help you.

fleetwood mac had more than 1 good song.....

cant really coment on the others allough id like to say soemthing about radiohead, i just dont listen to them enough

Hmmmmmmmm, you see thats the good thing about opinions.

 

[atpbx]

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

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

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

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.

Blur- Didnt do anything for me either at the time, or now, the only tune that really grabbed me was to the end, and only then because radio 1 kept playing the french version.

Primal Scream- Nope, sorry, i've listened to the other singles they released after rocks, and though"WTF is this garbage? Primal scream? oh they are one of THOSE bands"

Ash- a firend of mine introduced me to Ash as "that band of Grand turismo" i had a listen to what he gave me, and i couldnt reach for the off button quick enough.

Radiohead- are rubbish. end of. one good song "creep" the rest total crap from start to finish.

Huey Lewis and the News - The Power of Love

I still have the CD so That is where I got the idea from, I was tempted to mention a couple more from there but they were more like 'one-hit wonders' than anything else.

Straying away from bands/artists with one amazing song but completely correct that the compilation there micturates on Hits 96 from a great height good though Hits 96 is.
