For me it has to be Seasick Steve. Loads of people going on about how wonderful he is.

I can hear the guitar playing is good, but otherwise he just sounds like any other "dang doggone, mah babee done left me an' mah dawg died" tedious country-blues artist.

oh yes benard, anything at all... Cheryl Cole hardly counts as music after all...

Coldplay music is just montage music

All sporting events must be highlighted by Coldplay. It's the law

there's so much music snobbery re;coldplay (esp on here)..they might have made a few boring songs, (who hasn't)..but they are a decent band...

TheGrillerPedant · 21/11/2008 22:31

notnowbernard · 21/11/2008 22:32

I have also, on more than one occasion, seen a montage which includes a God-awful shot of his wife and one of their kids wearing over-sized ear defenders.

Followed by people in crowds waving Bic lighters

That sort of thing

Kings of Leon.Whats good about them?Except the singer is fit.

TheGreatScootini · 21/11/2008 23:03

Oh sorry.Didnt realise it was only music.But still the Daniel Craig comment stands.

meglet · 21/11/2008 23:04

kings of leon used to be all beardy didn't they. They are definately fit now, therefore I like their music. I am so shallow.

Amy Winehouse
Leona
Anything x factor

pointydog · 21/11/2008 23:11
