Not my thing, personally if it's on the Top 40, chances are it's shit. This has only been disproven once, by Iron Maiden with Run to the Hills. And what the fuck is with that stupid hat he wears?
oh...his thing with hats, that i kinda dig.....he figures, that if he wears a hat on stage, in a video, etc...that he has a better chance of going unrecognized in the street.....i'd do the same thing. They haven't had too many top 40 hits, have they? Just one, that i can think of. but they have a great funk and acid jazz feel to them.
I really liked the first album when I had it. Lost it years ago though and haven't heard it since. And aye, I've dug some of the singles since. Some stuff, from what seems like the last 8 years or so :whistling , has sounded canny bad! But the first few albums might be worth checking out again.
That's not strictly true : God Save The Queen - Sex Pistols, London Calling - The Clash, several others too... But you're right there... he's a fucking knob....
Indeed.. I believe the hat actually has more musical talent, despite being a mere piece of haberdashery.
Entirely probably. I dunno why they bother putting stuff in their videos other than that fucking hat, cause that's all anyone ever looks at/remembers.
