Hence why I said greatest hits, she can still deliver the goods when she's not trying to be 'current'. 

Based on her Eurovision performance she can't stay in tune singing live. It was horrendous. As bad as Blondie on the Other stage a few years back, which is the worst singing performance I've ever endured in person.

My life seems to be falling apart today so why not ruin my reputation here too by admitting my deepest darkest secret...

I think Stars Are Blind is a bop and unironically listen to it when I'm stone-cold sober.

Madonna would be at either end of the spectrum. It would either be one for ages or an utter car crash. It wouldn’t just be “alright”.

Saw her at Coachella in 2006...bloody awful, she flew in by helicopter, was late, butchered a few tracks and then buggered off...Daft Punk in the very same tent the night before on the other hand were spectacular!

[Spindles]

There was a time I'd really have been all for Madge doing a turn at Glastonbury, but that time has now passed.  She was the first artist I ever bought gig tickets for and then had to get a refund because my mum wouldn't let me go.

It still riles me to this day that Mark David Chapman didn't have the decency to shoot Paul McCartney dead rather than John Lennon.

You’re not alone. It’s a belter.

Don't get me started on Bing though.... that whiny little bastard needs putting down!

Did you know Flop is played by Mark Rylance?

Bjork is the most important artist of the last 40 years. 

She's certainly a proper, complete artist in same way as Bowie and Kate Bush.

I actually mean this one: I don't get the dichotomy of everyone saying George Michael was great and Wham! were crap. Wham! totally kicks George Michael's arse.

I've never heard this, at least not since about 1993.

Fucking little rabbit scumbag. And his dick head 'enabler' Flop. Hey, let's just teach kids to be whiny, selfish, irritating little shits and allow it. I've banned it in my house. 

 

Dougie, on the other hand, is where it's at.

That panda is a right little shit too.

And why the fuck does the Panda take his clothes off running through the park in the intro...?

I did, and I respect him less for it.

Fucker should give his Oscars back.

Wasn't she murdering one of her old songs? I could check which one (ones?), but I can't take the risk of hearing her again.

I'm really intrigued by this and seen similar comments in the past. Any album recommendations? What's her absolute peak work?

Think she did a new one and Like A Prayer IIRC... it was not good.

I think it was Victor Lewis Smith that said the Beatles were dying in the wrong order

I'd recommend listening to her first 4 records in order, then delving into the rest if you're sold.

It's not just in the intro Pando will get down to his pants at every opportunity.

Sula is the only one who isn't utterly hateful.

Just waiting for someone to show up on here and praise James Arthur. I have my popcorn at the ready.

Bloody good idea for a standalone post. Mine would be the twenty minutes spent enduring Ellie fucking Goulding on the pyramid stage, who awoke me from an extremely nice afternoon nap with her hideous caterwauling. Nobody can enjoy that, surely?

feel free to start a thread on it if you wish. Could be interesting way to find out which acts to avoid seeing play live! Ian Brown was a better singer than I expected the few times I've seen Stone Roses, considering all the negative press he gets.

Actually that reminds me of a controversial music opinion I hold. The Second Coming was the best Stone Roses album
