A Top 15 Thread (with a catch)

[phanan]

I think it caused everyone to lose interest.

 

[Axver]

If you ask me Muse's last good album was Absolution. They were on fire for Origin of Symmetry, Absolution, and a whole bunch of non-album material from that period (the Dead Star/In Your World single having my two favourite Muse songs). Then they fell in a hole and will probably never dig themselves out.

 

[phanan]

A supermassive black hole, some would say.

 

[monkeyskin]

As exciting and fresh as Supermassive Black Hole and Knights of Cydonia were at the time (and they're still fun to me), they certainly signalled the start of Muse's tongue in cheek phase. Before they came across as completely sincere behind the larger than life sounds they conjured up, now it feels like they're spoofing themselves and skidded right into camp. At least Black Holes and Revelations had some good tunes at the same time.

They'll never come close to Origin of Symmetry again.

 

[djerdap]

Well, at least he got the letter right. Unlike some. Speaking of which...

[LemonMelon]

If you listen to all the albums from the debut to Sparkle In The Rain you won't even need to include Don't You (Forget About Me).

I could easily do a Simple Minds top 15. Just waiting for an S.

 

[djerdap]

I was waiting for LM to do this, but I guess I'll take the reins:

[LemonMelon]

I bogarted this thread at the beginning and have been content to read for the most part since.

Going to be waiting a bit longer still because I can't think of a W. What Goes On is not my favorite Velvet Underground song but comes close enough to consider a list.

 

[djerdap]

Ha! What Goes On is in fact my favourite VU song, and I didn't think of that until now.

I'd need a G to do it.

 

[Axver]

No Calm Before the Storm? I love that song.

Like The Chills, I could've just kept going and going.

Oops! My mistake

I had a list ready for L, but then I forgot to post it, so I'll have to wait til it comes around again, since someone decided to waste it . I'm fresh out of N's.
