OK Kids and Grownups Too! I know these have all been asked, but I just wanna ask my fellow music geeks and non-geeks too: These questions that I can't even answer because my brains are too overwhelmed to answer, so big points to those of you who can answer:

(same question) "CURRENT"

The most UNDERRATED "CLASSIC" FEMALE MUSICIAN;

WHO SHOULD WE ALL BE ON THE LOOK-OUT FOR THAT'S UP AND COMING?


I believe that there should be a ban on many many songs that have been so grossly overplayed over the past 30 years or so, they should be blacklisted from the airwaves for a 10 year timespan.

What would your top ten Banned songlist consist of??


What song do you WISH that would've been written about you?


What rockstar, dead or alive, do you KNOW that had you been given the opportunity, you would've done the full nasty with?


OK...I think that's it! Thanks guys.

THE Most OVERRATED "CLASSIC" BAND: The Doors. Sorry Doors fans. I thought Jim Morrison was just...blearrrrrgggggghhhhhhh.
(same question) "CURRENT" Radiohead, I know people love them but to me they are a bit serious...U2 wins the overrated hall of fame prize

THE Most OVERRATED "CLASSIC" MALE MUSICIAN: John Lennon. Yes, I am going to hell. I mean, I love what he symbolized, but I can't get into most of his solo work. I like Yoko better, seriously.
(same question) "CURRENT" John Mayer probably, I'm sure he's a nice guy and shit but I can't get into his music at all. Followed closely by Dave Matthews

THE Most OVERRATED "CLASSIC" FEMALE MUSICIAN: Janis Joplin
(same question) "CURRENT" Madonna, if she's still considered current. Is she even a musician???


Who are:

THE most UNDERRATED "CLASSIC" BAND: Probably Soft Machine? Ultravox (John Foxx era)?
(same question) "CURRENT" 33Hz, a band from Queens (I think). They had a debut album a couple of years ago that should've sold a bazillion copies.

THE most UNDERRATED "CLASSIC" MALE MUSICIAN: Gilbert O'Muthafucking Sullivan. Yeah, I said it.
(same question) "CURRENT" Oh shit...can't think of anyone still alive or current!

The most UNDERRATED "CLASSIC" FEMALE MUSICIAN: Françoise Hardy, massive in France but not really elsewhere.
(same question) "CURRENT" I dunno...maybe Alison Goldfrapp???

WHO SHOULD WE ALL BE ON THE LOOK-OUT FOR THAT'S UP AND COMING? There's a band from Denmark called The Fashion, they are pretty cool I think, their song "Solo Impala" is pretty funny...eh, a lot of stuff really. Also Teki Latex, he is in a group called TTC, he does pretty impressive French pop music.

What would your top ten Banned songlist consist of??
Angels - Robbie Williams
ANYTHING EVER by James Blunt
Anything ever bad from the mid to late 1990s. This includes most of the catalog from the bands Live, Spin Doctors, Third Eye Blind, The Verve Pipe, etc. This was the worst time ever for music.
Treat Her Like a Prostitute by Slick Rick for embarrassingly bad personal reasons
Dope Show by Marilyn Manson for more awful personal reasons
Anything by the band Type O Negative, an ex-boyfriend tortured me with their album "Bloody Kisses" in the 1990s
Any awful rap rock, like Limp Bizkit, etc. and their ilk. Straight up crappy ass music, it was mortifying how many of my friends listened to that shit. I forgive their bad judgment...


What song do you WISH that would've been written about you?
Rebel Rebel by Bowie, whoever that was written about must have been fucking insane!

What rockstar, dead or alive, do you KNOW that had you been given the opportunity, you would've done the full nasty with?
Too embarrassing to type! Probably someone embarrassingly new wave.
