Not quite as cool as Severin, but I’m getting there!

I don't know about cool but I definitely don't have typical Buzzjack taste that's for sure! You are welcome to join me ploughing a lonely furrow.

Frankly, I'm surprised I've still got 4 acts left. Having said that, knowing who they are, it's not that odd.

G'n'R, what an iconic band :wub: love most of their stuff but their power ballads are probably my faves - you'd be hard pressed to find two better rock songs than 'Don't Cry' and 'November Rain'!
Losing some big hitters now after yesterday's with Aerosmith. GnR another classic group and 'November Rain' is just epic but 'Paradise City' is my fave in terms of their upbeat tracks. A stomper!

I've been away so missed out on commenting.

 

Obviously love CCR, as everyone should.

 

Appetite for Destruction is a cracking album (even with the dodgy lyrics) but otherwise mostly find GNR a bit dull.

 

Aerosmith had a few good tunes in the 70s and 80s but went horribly Diane Warren in the end.

 

Suede - if the list was longer they'd be in there somehwere. Those first two albums alone mark them out as special.

 

Not a lover of the Bee Gees Disco stuff but it's iconic and the earlier stuff I do like quite a few. They belong in here.

 

Other than that OutKast, Scissor Sisters and Gorillaz have a song or three I really like.

 

The rest? Nah, not for me.

 

Oh and The Verve should be in here. A Northern Soul is an underrated 90s classic, arguably better than Urban Hymns in some ways. And debut album A Storm in Heaven is a must for Shoegaze fans

BIGGEST HIT: IF YOU’RE TOO SHY (LET ME KNOW) (#14, 2020)

 

 

Food* would probably have been in my 31-40 bracket due to weight of solid songs. Not many I absolutely love though. Favourite is actually Walk from one of their more recent albums, absolute banger.

 

*Foos, even. Thanks autocorrect

I do like a lot of Foo Fighters tracks but they're just not a band I would usually choose to listen to. 'Arlandria' is my absolute fave by them though :wub:

The 1975 I can take or leave - they do have a handful of good tracks but they've also released singles that I find a bit unlistenable :lol:

Bit of a climb for acts left in top 75!

Bit of a climb for acts left in top 75!

7 acts left to come who were outside the top 100 last time around.

Ooh that is very interesting!!

 

 

Ps yay I’m still at the top 🙌 I know it’s not a game but I’m winning 😂

Foo Fighters and the 1975 are again 2 bands i like but missed out on votes from me but both have a good few songs i really like.
Foo Fighters are OK. Some very good tunes and plenty of middling ones. Dave's a great drummer and a good songwriter but I find he's too happy to sit in the safe middle ground rather than challenge himself.
I didn't lose any of my votes from #100 to #76 - only to swiftly lose my 28-pointer at #75. Very pleased with a 39-place climb for the Foo Fighters! 'Best Of You' is a good one for their highest charter <3
