(no subject)
MTV2 did a "22 Greatest Bands in the Past 22 Years" specialty dealie today, and I was...kind of appalled. I was going to write a whole schpiel on why most of these bands suck, but I'm too tired, so I'll just pick the five worst and write about them. I will, however, list all of them.
AC/DC
Aerosmith
Alice in Chains
Backstreet Boys
Beastie Boys
Blink-182
Bush
Bon Jovi
Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band
The Cars
The Clash
The Cure
Dave Matthews Band
Depeche Mode
Foo Fighters
Fugees
Goo Goo Dolls
Green Day
Guns N Roses
KISS
Korn
Limp Bizkit
Linkin Park
Metallica
Nine Inch Nails
Nirvana
*NSYNC
Oasis
Pearl Jam
Phish
The Police
Radiohead
The Ramones
Red Hot Chili Peppers
R.E.M.
The Replacements
The Rolling Stones
Smashing Pumpkins
The Smiths
Stone Temple Pilots

And here are the five I am going to disprove as 'good', using lyrics alone.
Phish
Stun the puppy!
Burn the whale!
Bark a scruff and go to jail!
Forge the coin and lick the stamp!
Little Jimmy's off to camp
*NSYNC (Oh please.)
Gotta giddy up...
Gotta giddy up...
'N Sync - giddy up... like this
Gotta giddy up..
C'mon...just drop the verse
Gotta giddy up...
Tried to get a hold of you last night
Called you on the phone
Thinkin' to myself something ain't right
Girl were you alone?
Letting little things come between us
All we do is fuss
When all I wanna do is show you love
Korn
I can't stand what you put me through
I can't stand even the thought of you
Your secret lies that you hide
Is it that terrible being you inside?
You try so hard to be wanted
False emotions tells you fronted...
Limp Bizkit
Hey I think about the day
My girlie ran away with my pay
When fellas come to play
No she stuck with my homeez that she fucked
And I'm just a sucker with a lump in my throat
Hey, like a chump
Should I be feelin' bad? No
Should I be feelin good? No
Its kinda sad I'm the laughin' stock of the neighborhood
Fugees (My personal favorite. My sister used to listen to them every damn day a year ago.)
Mista mista
I haven't ate anything for a week
Can I get a quarter
Hell no motherfucker
What can a quarter get you
Nothing motherfucker
You are just fucked up
Off them fucked up drugs
You know you need to fuckin leave alone
But you keep tellin me that you're drug free
Motherfucker, you ain't drug free
And that's all I have to say about that. Feel free to leave YOUR opinion.
