I dont give a feck for these kind of charts....its meaningless......I very much prefer to know about new bands, singers etc etc plus listening to favourites including U2 and so on..... not these stupid charts.....the only good thing about it is that it always starts a flaming row about the merits of The Who against N'Sync....hmmm actually Id love to see how fans of both of those bands would battle it out with each other.....bound to be some fireworks there!

This is an internet user poll, and everyone knows that people on the internet are either crazy or stupid!

Besides, all it takes are a determined group of super fans, a Java applet that hikes the voting, and anyone can be on the top!

I so totally agree, Q is the best music mag out there in the world, I just picked up the newest copy to make it to the shores of Australia yesterday and was able to catch up on all the decent happenings in the world of music, and the other thing I love about Q is that they have awesome CD samplers, like the one I got yesterday had a very nice CD attached with 21 superb songs on it, and BTW my fave CD from Q has been 'The best songs from the best albums of 1999'- every song on that one is excellent- LONG LIVE Q

If I recall correctly, he's the guy that sang "Feliz Navidad".

Other Q supporters! Yeah! It costs $8 here in the US but I always go down to the Virgin Megastore to buy it because I know its worth it-- and the CDs do rock. When you pay $8 for a great mag and a great CD, its a total bargain. At this point, RS is $3.50 or something when it really only has a $1 of good material.
