September 14, 201014 yr The likes of Mini Viva and Girls Can't Catch, as Aled says, groups with no albums at all, being higher than Radiohead, one of the most listened to bands in the last decade is really quite frightening, though i'm not surprised :(. Having said that i didn't vote, so i guess i can't complain (N) Edited September 14, 201014 yr by Harve
September 14, 201014 yr I do like MGMT, but I dont think they deserved much higher though as they are still relatively new a good set of bands- Lostprophets are great, although I didnt expect Buzzjack to like them much, The Feeling and OneRepublic are also good, albeit not great even though these bands probably got the right finishing positions- I think its pretty embarassing that Mini Viva and Girls Cant Catch are higher than these bands who have been around far longer and are much better The Fray's 'How To Save A Life' is absolutely brilliant, but apart from that, Im not a huge fan Edited September 14, 201014 yr by chart wizard
