TIME TO ROCK

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Welcome to the first of our occasional special guest polls - in this case awesomewells was caught not in possession of a paid account, and wanted to canvas the views of the assembled poptimists on the subject of ROCK.

But how to define rock? He naturally chose The Best Rock Album In The World...Ever, which surely by Trades Description science collects together only the finest examples of ROCK, which will be submitted to Any Good At All science.

How rock are poptimists? LET'S FIND OUT!


[Poll #769482]


NB this album came out in 1994 which is why it does not have LORDI et al. on it.

This may be the least indie album ever assembled!

Rock = boys with guitars = indie = GHASTLY, ALL OF IT, SANS EXCEPTION, WORST MUSIC EVER, STOP LISTENING TO IT, THIS WAY BADNESS LIES, COME BACK TO THE LAND OF R&B DIVAS AND POP POPPETS :(((((((((

Rock is MEN with guitars, Lex.

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

MEN = BOYS

no matter how hard their guitar!

[atommickbrane.livejournal.com]

Mannish Boys, lex!

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

the only people who should be permitted to play guitars are GIRLS (and even then only a select few: Miss Courtney, Miss Polly Jean, that's about it)

A POINT OF ORDER

i cannot believe the lex's "air guitar" answer

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

I have played air piano. And, I believe, air flute. Proper instruments.

[dubdobdee.livejournal.com]

flute is the indiest instrument of all!

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

The air flute I did was to the flute coda of 'The Real Slim Shady' = not indie in the slightest

[carsmilesteve.livejournal.com]

all white rappers = indie

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

Hackney kids rap along to Eminem on the bus = not indie

[chezghost.livejournal.com]

HA HA HA HA

HA!

[chezghost.livejournal.com]

i mean i agree that that's not indie but it is very funny.

Air flute!

what is a good song to play Air Bassoon to?

[dubdobdee.livejournal.com]

nirvana for mice by henry cow

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Actually the total lack of women on this album is pretty shocking - 1994, less enlightened times, wherefore art thou Joan Jett etc.

FREE COURTNEY

[chezghost.livejournal.com]

and ah say heeeeeyeeeeyeeeeyyyy a-what's goin on??

Heart!

[lockedintheatti.livejournal.com]

Alone should be on there.

[koganbot]

Or even Janis or Grace or Heart, who actually scored more than two hits.

[koganbot]

Oh, answered before looking at lockedintheatti's post. How about Girlschool, then?
