Anyone like R.E.M.?

[mjp]

never into this guys, when I mean never it's that I only know everybody hurts and that's all,maybe I should get into em

yes please do Perv, as a matter of urgency or many people will be upset with you.

Out of Time is a good starting block but not my favourite - perhaps some more well oiled fans would be able to advise your "reference point" (hey I think I just did a clever REM quote there!)

 

[Pervomartovtsi]

PervO and your irony stays intact

 

[Sister]

I like them a lot. Sometimes, when I'm listening to Loosing my Religion, I'm thinking: wow, that's just too beautiful to be true!
Let Me In, on the other hand, is the song that is so painful, I can't listen to it till this day.

[WhatDifferenceDoesItMake?]

I do...

 

[no one in particular]

No.

Their shite.

andy, it is really disappointing that you don't appreciate such a sensational band, but at the same time i am forgiving...

p.s. i think that was probably supposed to be "they're" (not their). just wanted to apply a gentle correction, because if MJP got a hold of you first for that one, he would be much more brutal (giving you a crack on the head at the very least) and non-forgiving....

Thanks a lot for these downloads

I still means that

Popsong 89 is one of there best ever

 

[andy_fozzy]

andy, it is really disappointing that you don't appreciate such a sensational band, but at the same time i am forgiving...

p.s. i think that was probably supposed to be "they're" (not their). just wanted to apply a gentle correction, because if MJP got a hold of you first for that one, he would be much more brutal (giving you a crack on the head at the very least) and non-forgiving....

Bugger. nd I'm usually so particular on my speling and gramer

Thanks for forgiving me, nonetheless.
I still find it difficult to enjoy any music, other than The Smiths or Moz.
Stupid I know, but I just struggle with anything else. Although having said that, I heard a Keane song on the radio some months ago, really really liked it, so I got the album. And now I'm quite fond of them (sorry, I know that's bad.....)

And also, stems back a bit from the old days, but I like Everything But The Girl.

But I still feel terribly guilty for listening to anyone other than the love of my life.

Do notice however, that these 2 other er, bands, are both big Smiths and Moz fans. So perhaps that ok for me to 'like' them.......???????

 

[mjp]

Thanks for forgiving me, nonetheless.

Andy, (ex)mate - it's "no one" not "nonetheless"

Although having said that, I heard a Keane song on the radio some months ago, really really liked it, so I got the album. And now I'm quite fond of them (sorry, I know that's bad.....)

You know that saying about when in a hole......?

Anyway, a big THANK YOU to Sister for the d/loads. What a star.

 

[andy_fozzy]

f***. There goes another friend. That lasted longer than usual mind......



I wouldn't rule out listening to a bit of REM,
but I'd always go straight back to dear old blighty.

Well that doesn't surprise me

I wouldn't rule out listening to a bit of REM,
but I'd always go straight back to dear old blighty.

I know what you mean but it's good to have groups like REM to fall back on every now and then.

 

[andy_fozzy]

It's all part of being obsessed I guess.

I might give REM a try then.

I like some of the older stuff. Is the 'newer' stuff better?

Any chance that somebody could place these on MegaUpload, for some reason I can't use rapid share x Practising Troublemaker x

 

[Sister]

You are welcome, guys!

If you get problems with rapidshare pm me.

Andy, my mate.. you know Georgia really isn't as far away from Blighty as it may appear on first glance. Listen and you will learn...
