    you can't honestly say fred durst is a better vocalist than tom petty. ever heard the live version of that 'i can see through you' song with the lead singer of staind that durst sang backup for? sounded like he was trying to tune a bobcat.

    Re: 50 Worst Songs

    Cyndi Lauper gets a pass because 'Time After Time' is really, really awesome. Ditto for Culture Club and a ton of other wacky 80s groups that still pumped out a great song or two.

    I'm going awful song hunting today. Results later.

    SPOILER: No Tom Petty or Bob Dylan

    I bet you loved the Traveling Wilburys! The perfect group for you. :icon_wink:

    For the record, I really like Petty and Dylan. Dylan's voice is certainly an acquired taste, but Petty is a little easier to learn to appreciate. I'm telling you, it can grow on you if you give it a chance, and then you get to enjoy the great songs (on the other hand - since EVERYBODY and their grandmother covers Dylan, I guess you can still enjoy most of his music without ever having to listen to him sing at all).

    From what I hear, Nick White is pretty upset that "Cotton Eyed Joe" is on the list. He used to get crunk to that in high school.

    It's funny what happens when a bunch of friends (Lynne/Harrison/Dylan/Orbison) shows up at another friend's garage (Petty's) and someone turns on a tape recorder without even the fore thought of recording a record....

    Well, it's funny when those friends do it - if me and my friends tried it, it wouldn't be funny - it would be torturous (for anyone who had to listen to it). :bigcry:

    Believe me, I'm not saying that Fred knows how to sing... those are 2 different styles. What I'm saying is that I liked a handful of their EARLY songs.

    Outside would have been an even better song without Fred backing up vocals. They didn't even try to harmonize... it was trying to match pitch, and it didn't work. So 2 points for you there. :icon_wink:

    I have a feeling that if I even TRIED this, I would throw something at the speakers. I guess that I should add that all I've listened to by him is the same damn 2 or 3 songs that 99X overplays.

    Yeh, I kind of think so too, but what is considered as a classic today? "Oh Baby Baby" by Spears, "Bye, Bye, Bye" by N Sync, seriously what good music overshadows these right now. There is good music out there, but nothing gets more air time or tops billboards like these types of songs do. Maybe it is just because i am in the moment, but I dont see hardly any music from the past decade being played on an Oldies station in 30 years. They will probably still be playing the 60s, 70s and early 80s.
