  1. Milky, Kinetic has played Czech like a damn fool and rendered my screen name as a mere question mark. What handle would you reccomend I adopt?
  2. 10. Outkast 09. Jethro Tull 08. Radiohead 07. Pink Floyd 06. David Bowie 05. Bob Dylan 04. Frank Zappa 03. Elvis Costello 02. The Smiths 01. Led Zeppelin
  3. Between the exotic instrumentation, catchy chorus and melancholy tone 'Ruby Tuesday' is a pretty good song. 'Let's Spend the Night Together' is much better in terms of piano romps though.
  4. The Rolling Stones - Exile on Main Street (1972) The raw bluesy feel that informs even the acoustic songs on this album really appeals to me. I know that this was their signature sound, but here it's been refined, usually to co-exist with more jazz based instrumentation. This gives entirely different overtones to songs such as "Rocks Off" and "Sweet Virginia". Somehow, despite its considerable running time, the album never begins to drag, even the filler ("I Just Want to See His Face", "Let It Loose") isn't generic enough to be completely pointless. The record does step out of its safety zone from time to time, usually with fantastic results. For example: "Loving Cup" is a delicious piano ballad, and "Torn and Frayed" is an oddly melodic acoustic romp. I basically just love this album, atypically buried vocals aside.
  5. What? How many overweight people do you know, who're genuinely not concerned about the sanctity of their waistline? I don't think that I know any.
  6. TaigaStar makes me feel ashamed to have purchased some serious skunk.
  7. I might introduce a friend to this forum, he doesn't like wrestling, but knows of its existence already.
  8. That picture's from late 2007, I think. It was a terrible idea and I've been running from it ever since. It's at a far better length now, so never fear. Kinetic, you and I both know that this name change wasn't voluntary. forums.thesmartmarks.com hasn't seen the last of Penis Skullduggery!
  9. How the West Was Won would get disqualified on the multiple live recordings rule.
  10. I used to be known as Amnesia Glasscock, a John Steinbeck reference. That beats Penis Skullduggery, I think.
  11. Didn't 2Gold once mention doctor's orders about drinking? I'm guessing it's him.
  12. There's another reason that I prefer Myspace: the ability to browse the profiles of random people, and the hilarity that does ensue. Bebo is pretty awful as well, unless you're a chav.
  13. That was mean of you.
  14. Myspace by a West Country mile. Facebook is confusing and useless.
  15. If she becomes a regular poster again, then this will become a weekly occurance.
  16. Oh, EHME is still pretty awful. Battlenuts is just sinking a little lower with his attempts to seriously debate him.
  17. You're intent on winning this competition, aren't you?
  18. You could certainly out battle beat him in a game of wits then.
  19. Slim Charles is wiping the floor with Battlenuts here.
  20. I wanted A Tribute to Jack Johnson as well, but there's another jazz album that I'm going to pick.
  21. Dandy worked the board!
  22. This is exactly what I've done with the phrase "lactose intolerant". I'll just toss it out in the middle of a conversation like "Zelda's well lactose intolerant on the WII". I've given it positive connotations, so people ignore its actual meaning.

    Pick One

    Lou Reed was a talented wordsmith, but I don't think that he was anywhere near being as good of a musician as Zappa was. Between his abilities as a composer, producer and guitarist I would easily take Zappa over Reed.

    Pick One

    The Who. They appeal to me less and less as each year passes, but even so, I still prefer them to the Kinks on account of the fact that they have some excellent singles. I despise everything that I have heard by the Kinks. It may just be that their singles all appear to be paper thin-exercises in quirky pop, but it's also possible that they're not compatible with my taste in music. Miles Davis or John Coltrane?
  25. Get a world filter for every popular term that's related to Nazi Germany.
