Floyd had really interesting ‘music’ once you get into it...if you can that is. But although I did like the wall, His daddy issues were pathetic in the way he rode them to riches.
ZERO respect for the guy on a number of levels.
There’s only two Pink Floyd albums I care to listen to, Dark Side of the Moon and Animals.
The Wall doesn’t do it for me.
No meatloaf?
I went through a “Doors” thing just around the time I graduated high school... then I grew up. I can’t understand why I was so into them now.
I would disagree with Stevie Wonder. I grew up in the early 70’s in Detroit and Stevie was part of the soundtrack of my growing up years. Too many good songs to be put on this list I think.
Waters... ehh.. I can see why he’s here. He was quite an innovator during most of his Floyd years. -Til The Wall.. As for his bass playing, he’s not great. Listen to the records. Lots of one note strumming. But I believe he’s a great producer.
Just my 2cents... I ain’t nobody...
#5: Pink Floyd: I’ve always loved Pink Floyd. I must have gone to many midnight showing of them live at Pompey as well as the Wall.
#4 Bob Marley
Never liked him.
#3: Stevie Wonder
Never liked him.
#2: The Doors
I love the doors.
#1: Bruce Springsteen
Not only do I intensely dislike his music and voice but despise him as a person.
Thankfully they didn’t have the Who on here. They’re another band I must have seen, “The Kids are Alright” over twenty times at midnight movies. If you like this movie, beware, there’s a newer movie with the same title and it’s about some lesbos and ‘their’ kids or something but Roger Daltry is nowhere to be found. And something makes me think their kids are anything but alright.
Springsteen does not belong on this list.
There were good albums but mostly very weak and repetitive. Then again, I started following them in their later years.
I don't know anything about Bob Marley, but for the other four on this list I have some tunes that I really like, some I just can't stand, and many others that I'm completely indifferent about.
One thing I would point out though, is that I was never a fan of Pink Floyd when I was young but grew to appreciate them over time. And for Bruce Springsteen, the process was the opposite.
5 - Any boy bands where they don't play their own instruments
4 - Eminem
3 - Puff Daddy or whatever he calls himself.
2 - Nirvana
1 - Green Day
Funny thing about women, though - she stopped liking him when he released the song “ I loved you but I lied.” I remember many women didn't like it because he “lied” even though that wasn't what he meant. That song ended his career. Lol.
Let me cover my head first, OK......Bob Dylan. Never understood the magic, never will.
Only one of the best rock drummers, ever.
all of the beatles.
the doors.
whoever the idiots were that sang sweet home alabama.
lots of others.
Glad I’m not the only one. I like Pink Floyd and The Doors too.
Springsteen’s live arena shows back before Born to Run were great. Stevie Wonder had a good album in Innervisions.
Now Geddy Lee, there's a train wreck, or more like fingernails on a chalk board of a voice if there ever was one.
Oh, I'm supposed to give him a pass because he's kinda sorta a libertarian.
Not gonna do it.
What about Bieber and Timberlake and the whole load of pussies that came out of boy bands and YouTube?
And sure all reggae music is basically just one song ... or at least it all sounds that way to the zombies that dance to it while stoned out of what's left of their minds. So you won't get much of an argument from me about Marley.
