I don't even know if Zip likes British rock. Its blasphemy NOT to start with the Beatles...so I'll prolly go to Rock n Roll hell, Cleveland.

I was about to ask if it was Ok to post British Pop in here and then I listened to the first song and now I'm going to have to insist on changing the title of the thread on principal. British Rock is the Who, Led Zepplin, The Rolling Stones, Black Sabbath. Like them or not, British "Rock" is not THe Verve.

I actually like Bittersweet Symphony. Nice.

And yeah, The Verve are not rock.

Oh jesus christ I can't do anything fucking thing right anygodamnmore. :)

You are right, Vinny.

BTW...it was a bid debate betwen Tahoe and myself whether to start the thread with BS Symph or this other song that i can't think of the name of right now.

Thanks for massaging of the title.

"British Music Appreciation Thread"

In which case you need some Rick Astley. His amazing music doesn't fit in a genre.

where does David Bowie fit in here? He is a Brit, isn't he?

Vinny

I don't really care, just felt like giving you a hard time. British Pop/Rock ok with you?

Tahoe

Absolutely. I was just fucking around myself...I like self depricating humor.

Bowie's pop. He fits here.

Also...


You'll fit in quite nicely.

I'm a sucker for British Pop. Here's a standard:

Vinny, you're awesome like that. Like me, you like metal, gangsta rap, soul, and British Pop (probably among other genres as well).

I officially sanction this thread. I have an appreciation of all things British (except their teeth and their food). I hear British women like it up the ass. The Brits are no where near as uptight about sex and humor as we are. In fact, nobody is unless they wear turbans on their heads.

I will say, though, that I'm not a big fan of "pop". That sounds so Spice Girls to me.

I think taking control of the naming of this thread is some of Vinny's best mod work to date. Now the thread MUST live.

This thread is going to be huge.

Is stuff like Iron Maiden acceptable? Or does that go in the Headbanger's thread?

Prolly the best 'help' version was from Woodstock...cept when i saw him live in Flint. Hitchhiked down there from BC to see his ass during the week...school night... I think.

Great song.

Great isn't overused either. It has great meaning, not just MJ or something.

I have to admit that I am more than a huge fan of just about anything British (although I do believe they need to discover toothpaste), but I am MORE of a fan of having threads named after me.

Rod Stewart's about to go on tour, starting at ARCO, iirc. I might go. Does that belong in the confessional?

Is he even singing rock songs anymore? I thought he was doing pop standards, or something like that.

I can enjoy many Rod Stewart songs, but probably not all in a row or too frequently. His voice wears on me quickly.
