Reply #19: Ha, I don't know about that. Here's some snarky analysis of the bands/artists you mentioned... [View All]

Yeah, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a joke.
Madonna being nominated is the punchline.
Madonna - her music isn't even rock and roll. it's shitty dance music. i guess 'credibility' isn't all that important to them. but hey, who cares about Genesis, Electric Light Orchestra, or Peter Gabriel? We really need MADONNA in there. What the fuck ever. ELO's 'Strange Magic' is about 100 times better than everything Madonna ever did combined.
The Beastie Boys - again, i question the 'rock and roll' cred...but at least they're more deserving.
The Dave Clark Five - don't know them enough to make fun of them...yet.
Leonard Cohen - one of my favorite artists. listening to 'hallelujah' now...sorry Rufus, your version can't touch Leonard.
Afrika Bambaataa - don't know em.
John Mellencamp - Jack and Diane - his only song that wasn't unspeakably lame. But hey, if MADONNA's qualified, then why not put this loser in, too??
The Ventures - meh. boring 60's rock. guess it deserves recognition. surf music? yawn.
Donna Summer - are you kidding me? no, really. are you fucking KIDDING me? no? not even a little? oh. :cry:
Chic - any band with a name this lame must suck hard.


2. Rush - god i hate that singing voice. i love Dream Theater, but find James LaBrie's voice to be rather questionnable. Multiply that times about 1000 and you'll get Rush.
3. Lynyrd Skynyrd - yawn. seriously overrated.
5. Dire Straits - how are they NOT in?
6. Doobie Brothers - see above comment
7. Peter Gabriel - and Madonna gets nominated? Give me a fucking break.
8. Chicago - 25 or 6 to 4...heh
9. Pete Townshend - Yeah, his one memorable post-who song. No thanks.
10. Black Sabbath - too cool for the hall of fame?
11. Pat Benatar - *snort*
12. Ben E. King - meh
13. Boston - no thanks
14. Deep Purple - meh. meh. ugh.
15. The Cars - hmmm...they're good, but hall of fame?
16. Heart - Hells yes they rock. Magic Man is like one of the best songs ever.
17. Yes - no.
18. Joe Cocker - his rendition of 'she came in through the bathroom window' is awesome. wait, he did songs that weren't beatles covers? his version of 'with a little help from my friends' makes me look for bags in which to barf.
19. Genesis - Yeah, seriously, that's fucked up. MADONNA over GENESIS? Fucking hell.
20. Moody Blues - Hey, I actually like these guys.
21. Steve Miller - haha, talk about an overrated douchebag. If I hear 'Take the Money and Run' on the radio one more time, I will drive an ice pick into my ear canal. The only hall of fame this loser belongs in is the 'no-talent asshat' hall of fame. He would keep Aerosmith company.
22. Cheap Trick - hey, we all liked 'I want you to want me' right? Then Letters to Cleo came along and beat the shit out of the Cheap Trick version. Hey, they had other songs besides that one? Bwahaha...
24. Electric Light Orchestra - One of my favorite bands. What's it doing with all these chumps?
25. Carole King - she deserves to be in, honestly. Before fucking MADONNA.
26. Kiss - :rofl: surely you jest. You know, Reverand Michael Mills used to think Kiss worshipped the devil. He's wrong. No deal with the devil could produce music this bad. If Gene Simmons sold his soul to satan for his music, he should ask for a refund, cause he got ripped off.
27. Badfinger - that sounds dirty.
28. Def Leppard - oh. right. more shitty 80's hair metal.
29. Hall & Oates - This is even funnier than Kiss.
30. B-52s - They were alright, but come on. 'Loveshack'?
