1. Hail U2.

C'mon, only 99 to go!

Triton4 · 19th February 2004, 15:34

Hail me too

Mrs_Mia_Wallace · 19th February 2004, 16:31

2. "Yeah, I know 'Tainted love', it's that song by Marilyn Manson"

(the same with every song that is obviously a cover and people that pretend to know everything only know songs from the last 2 years...)

Cylob · 19th February 2004, 16:41

Absolutely Mia

And I think you gave the prime example.

Merlin · 19th February 2004, 16:44

Join the words "Westlife", "are", and "tolerable". Or if you're really trying to enrage the fan, replace "tolerable" with "really talented and deserving of success".

Having in your shared MP3 stash a file named

code:
"Mozart - Fur Elise"

Nimelennar · 19th February 2004, 21:26

9. Not bothering to tag files properly (i.e. a file called "Match Box 20 - Closing Time.mp3"... IT'S BY SEMISONIC YOU IDIOT!!! AND EVEN IF IT WEREN'T, IT'S "Matchbox Twenty"!!!)

"That's not music." - said by my sister.

The problem with this is I can't really say much about the stuff she listens to. She listens to a lot of oldies, Motown, R&B, and even a little classic rock, so she has pretty good taste.

Cylob · 21st February 2004, 09:14

The term "Boy Band"...

As the members don't play instruments, the word "band" is inaccurate.

Let's get it right - they're not bands.

apola_anamisha · 21st February 2004, 10:23

Point#2 If someone talks about something without even knowing much about it i.e. boybands don't play instuments

webthing · 21st February 2004, 15:02

Fans and regular listeners of CAT Country aren't getting what they expect when they tune into the FM radio station these days.

Since Monday morning, the country music station has been playing the children's classic "Pop Goes the Weasel" nonstop.

When the song finally ends, it probably won't be country tunes that listeners will hear when they set the dial at 106.7 FM.

A spokeswoman for the Elizabethtown radio station, who would identify herself only as Pinky, said the song is promotional, "leading up to a format change" at the station.

She said Bob Adams, marketing manager for the station, was meeting with "corporate visitors" this morning and was unavailable for comment.

Pinky then played a recorded phone message inviting regular CAT Country listeners to hear country music on three other radio stations.

actually, boy bands don't play instruments generally. most "boy bands" that play instruments fall into other genres (example: busted are a pop-punk band. just a pish-poor one).

oh, and my contribution is:
"<blank>* is my favourite band/artist"
"why?"
"they're so hot!"

*insert whatever name here.

peter andre, i'm coming for you. justice must be done.
