London Calling

[Avante]

London Calling is #8. The Clash are #28.

Thanks for proving definitively that the Clash are measurably better than The Eagles.

I noticed you ignored all the awards and hit records, why?

Rolling Stone Mg also had BB King ranked as the top three greatest guitarist ever, he can't hold a candle to Lonnie Johnson who wasn't even ranked.

You honestly believe most people would rather listen to The Clash over The Eagles?

[Avante]

This and thast?! What?!

Here's the difference, dummy . . . I can accept that just because I don't like them doesn't that other people shouldn't like the Eagles.

more successful

How do you measure success?

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ made.

Wanna talk hit records?

[Avante]

That doesn't say anything about the quality of their music. Milli Vanilli won a Grammy. Were they good?

if it doesn't. So what does it tell us?

[Avante]

School.

I agree, I'm going with awards/ hit records, what else is there?

Lol...then Beiber is crushing it for you nowadays?

Because they don't tell us anything about the quality of music.

You are the one who brought RS rankings as being meaningful, numbnuts.

I think that's pretty obvious.

The actual music.

There is a perfect example right there, he would be similiar to The Clash, music little kids dig.

I'm pretty sure this post alone proves everyone's point that you know about musical taste.

[Avante]

The actual music.

You are trying to tell me The Clash are more talented? You are ing looney aren't you?

[ohmwrecker]

Awards and hit records indicate popularity. We can all agree that just because something is popular doesn't mean it's good.

A friend asked to post a YT music video on his FB page for his birthday recently. I posted The Clash's Garageland. He said later it's one of his favorite bands. I had no idea he liked them. He's 25. So there's quite a bit of age range.

One band influenced by them is U2. Last i heard U2 was pretty successful.

My kid hates Beiber. Loves The Clash.

It's all about mood, we have immature moods and adult moods. The Clash/Beiber -immature moods.

Yo don't sell all those records and win all those awards if it isn't good.

Your ignoring me didn't last that long, did it?

Was it even a week?

You really are not a man of your word.

It's what you do with the talent you have. The Clash maximized their talent. The Eagles snorted a bunch of cocaine, got fat and lazy and made terrible music for decades.

Then most of the people in your almanac are dismal failures.

[ohmwrecker]

What?! Mariah Carey is good? Maroon5 is good? Justin Beiber is good?

[Avante]

My kid hates Beiber. Loves The Clash.

My son just shakes his head and grins over The Clash.

[ChumpDumper]

My son just shakes his head and grins over The Clash.

So much more successful than you.

So?

Give me the name of a hit record by The Clash and I'll give you two by The Eagles.

[Avante]

So?

You didn't mention what your son liked?

[ohmwrecker]

Give me the name of a hit record by The Clash and I'll give you two by The Eagles.

I just told you that hit records don't mean to me. That argument does not hold water. Try again, stupid.
