AIBU that the entire world

[GingerWrath]

Will judge Britain on the strength of One Directon?

what's One Direction?

What a peculiar thread!
Why would you suggest that (even in jest)?

One of the bands just on, Closing Ceremony, lol, DD recognised them.

I know! They weren't even singing live. Probably cos their jeans were too tight and they had too much to do just focusing in their elaborate hair do's

Why would they?

Rather that than the cunt that is Paul 'I've been dug up' MacCartney.

Well DH was just shouting intructions on how to lip synch at the TV, but most of the world wont have a clue, and will probably think they are just some teenagers have one a talent contest, or summat.

oh thank you lljkk
I think in that case ymbabu op

It's a terrifying thought!!! God they're vile!

I'm so much prouder of this old codger with shredded wheat hair singing out of tune

I was thinking it might be another ConDemn initiative

Who cares if they're lip-synching.
Who gives a fuck.
If the fact that they are ther performing in some capacity is what people want, why does it matter?

a

How are a bunch of young men pretending to sing, vile?

Which Direction is that, OP?

What about proper British institutions like Led Zepplin or Black Sabbath?

i think they are cute and can see why the kids like them. personally, i hope kate bush puts in an appearance....and not paul mc who i have heard has been spotted nearby....

are they not huge in america? probably better known internationally than some of the better acts!

Saw Robert Plant sing live not that long ago... really not great

1D app already knwn well abroad and in US

Yes, I think they are huge in the US.

Not so sure about the Pet Shop Boys, much as I love them, I'm thinking there was a limited budget for this ceremony.

But we have so many better representatives, Kasabian, Muse etc.

hahaha really altinkum! Thats so funny!

ILoveDaintyNuts your comment made my night

Same here Altinkum, duh, that is his name!
