CTFU. CTFU. CTFU at your post.

I never thought I'd see ol' Gerardo Mejia from Walnut, Calif. again. Thanks to this, I can't get that bloody Rico Suave out of my mind.

The pure CRAP that they are inflicting on us through the very young that we are obliged to babysit is appalling! Have any of you had the distinct displeasuere of catching these min-boy bands and pop princesses on Nickelodeon? It's soooo disturbing to see a bunch of prepubescents jumping up and down trying to be "the sexy one".

Ugh.

No, "disturbing" is going to a concert and watching little 12 years olds singing the sexy songs of some of theses artists. (Think Jordan Knight's "Give It To You" or ANY O-town song)!!!

CTFU (I like that abbreviation!) I remember my freshman year at A&M in the door room and watching Rico's video at 2 in the morning-ahhh brings back memories.

When these kids get older they will realize just as I have now realized that New Kids on the Block (though I like Donny Wahlburg) are just puppatiers-used to make money for the music companies -maybe some of them do have talent but I sure don't see that now.

ok I know I am going to get flack for this one BUT I CAN'T STAND Willie Nelson-ughhhhhhhhhhhh he has a horrible voice-blah, to overrated (I said that to my friends last night and I think they were just about to maul me)

Rush: my husband loves them, but to me they sound like cats in a blender.

How can you not like Celine Dion, she was great for Kareoke. Mariah Carey I agree with, but I have to disagree with Rush. Sure they guy's voice sounded like the chipmunk, but they are a great musicians.

I would have to say, any and all Piff Daddy or Puff Daddy or Power Puff or what ever his name is now. He ruins more great songs and me makes me sick.

almost forgot, those 80s NFL rap music. You know, the SUperbowl Shuffle.

HEY! NEVER let an ill word pass your lips of Zeppelin!

Hanson...

Right Said Fred. they were the two Enlish guys with the shaved heads that did that song "On the Catwalk"

up, because the current form that is Mariah Carey should be in here. Especially the way she butchered that Def Leppard's classic.

ETA: I just read what I wrote and it did not make sense.

PhiPsiRuss · #10 12-18-2003, 04:10 PM

Britney Spears deserves another mention.

Anyone who says that she would rather have her children starve than have a white person buy her album, is not only an embarassment to music, but also a disgrace.

Outside of her, Right-Said-Fred was pretty bad.

Lauryn Hill did not say that. Nor did Tommy Hilfiger say he didn't want black people to wear his clothes. They are rumors and urban ledgends.

Urban Legends! Yay!

Snopes says it's false (and they're usually really really good at their research).

I still like Lauryn Hill.

Band that sucks: Creed. Stop with the self-righteous power ballads, guys.

Oh exactly. I hate Kenny G as I hate hell, all Kappa Alphas, and PHC.

Calling his "new age" CRAP "jazz" is blasphemy.

Does Kenny even KNOW who the Birdman is? Satchmo? The Count? THAT'S JAZZ.

I want Chingy to apologize. He doesn't even KNOW how I do it right thurr.

I lost all respect for Jewel and Boyz II Men after they both sold out. Jewel was great when she had that acoustic, Sarah McLachlan-y sound and Boyz II Men was great when they had the old doo-wop-y sound.
