YANBU, as long as we can add Elvis to the list.

I agree with all of the above but would like to point out that I don't see even half as much of David Bowie as I would like...how dare he try to grow old gracefully!

YES Elvis.

As Chuck D said - racist motherfucker.

And the Beatles were shite an' all.

Marianne Faithfull.

WHY were those people such icons at the time - they were all out of their heads on acid.

I bet they were self involved boring twats at parties.

Ahem: point of detail - Black Sabbath's first album was released in 1970. You can criticise Ozzy all you want, but not for being one of the 1960s bores.

however...... they are still household names.. they still get their music played regularly, and they still sell albums...

whereas how many of the artists in the last decade have managed to remain successful... not very many..

When I was in my 20s I wrote a song called "Sick of the Sixties". Can't recall it all now. It was a bit crap. Well, quite a lot crap. But I remember the end bit went:

"Sick of the same old songs, of how your hair was long,
Those were the days, your friends, you thought they'd never end.
Well, I've got news for you - the world is coming to,
Because the love that you gave for free,
Creates the boredom that you put in me.

You love yourselves, yeah yeah yeah,
You love yourselves, yeah yeah yeah..."
