    And you do realise that people like different things and we're not all obliged to like whatever music you like, yeah?

    Stan is objectively a better song than Take Me Out.

    No it's not. This is just your opinion. . .

    These best song of X decade threads are great fun and have been well run by Necro, Kolido and rainbow trout - apologies if I missed someone

    People like different music, it’s all down to personal taste but in every decade there’s been accusations of musical snobbery or hipsterism.

    Leave it out, enjoy and vote for what you like. The result won’t decide who’s running the country or whether we shoot ourselves in head and leave EU.

    The biggest joke is Franz Ferdinand though. You people do realise that it's an anonymous vote and you're not going to receive any cool points or street cred, right?

    I hope all nine of the people that voted for 'Take Me Out' over 'Stan' get a severe bout of diarrhea.

    Pink - Just Like A Pill. It reminds me of my bestie singing it back when we were young 'uns.
    JUST LIKE A PILL!! INSTEAD OF MAKING ME BETTER YOU KEEP MAKING ME ILL!!

    Eminem - Lose Yourself. Absolutely fantastic. Loved him back in the day. A very talented man.

    I was only just wondering if that would happen. Looking forward to it mostly just to see if it tallies in any way with the results of individual decades.

    I'm not really sure what your problem is with anyone outside your own demographic, but this is a friendly forum where people get on with one another and any slagging is good natured. So how about you drop the attitude and just take the forum for what it is, a bit of harmless fun?
    Stan is objectively a better song than Take Me Out.

    Again, in your opinion.

    Were these all just qualifiers?

    Quarter Finalists from each decade into the Champions League?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,512 ✭✭✭ArnoldJRimmer


    Semi Final 1
    Franz Ferdinand - Take Me Out
    VS
    Pink - Just Like A Pill


    Franz Ferdinand, one of my nominations and a much better song

    Semi Final 2
    Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood
    VS
    Eminem - Lose Yourself

    Two really good songs but I'll go with Gorillaz because of its originality and a cracking video

    Well I won't run anything until the 60s comp concludes but then we shall seeeeeeeeeee :D

    Take me out

    My nomination and worthy of final

    Eminem

    Worthy finalist too. Amazing artist.


  • Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Franz Ferdinand - Take Me Out Pink has had a good run but it should stop here. Franz Ferdinand defined my college years and even though Im not into that kind of music usually, this was a stomper and still is.

    Eminem - Lose Yourself Eminem's best work imo. One of the best soundtracks to a motion picture too. The video is stellar also. It's self aware, it's grim, it's gritty, it's cool and it's just unreal.
