I don't agree with Christy Moore as singer/songwriter scuzzy. I know the man fairly well in real life so i'm a big fan of his, but he is neither a good singer nor a good song writer, he belongs in a seperate topic: Best Solo Entertainer
He wrote none of his good songs, Missing You, The Mad Lady and Me, Ride On are all by Jimmy MacCarthy. City of Chicago was written by his brother Luka Bloom wasn't it? The old stuff he sang was mostly folk songs and stuff he didn't write at all, and the new stuff is woeful. Hes definitely not a good song writer.
As for singer... his voice is original but not very good. And hes not a good guitarist either, i was at his house once while he was having a seisiún with my brother and some others and he couldn't even match my bro on the guitar who was only a youngfella
I don't like Van Morrison very much, but his style is every bit as unique as christy's and hes a far superior song writer, look at the quality of the stuff he has written and try to compare anything Christy wrote with it. no contest imo
I do like Shane MacGowan, his songs are l33t and i like his singing so i'd put give him the title
And Thin Lizzy > Ash, the Horslips, the Cranberries, or the Frames0 -

I hate to say it because I know MBV are held in high respect but I don't believe I've ever heard their work. I'm missing out, aren't I?
I love them, and lots of people do as well, but I'd imagine it's the kind of thing that if you're not enjoying it, you'd be going "Why is this good?".
Give this one a go;

Ah! I remember that; yeah, like it. Sounds like a cross between That Petrol Emotion and Cocteau Twins. Cheers!0 -
