# help a good cause...
the BBC are voting for the best pop act in the last 50 years, 1227 votes have been cast and the beatles are set to win..

..again.

please visit this web site and vote for fat boy slim, if only half of b3ta's users vote, he wins!

you may not like mr cook, but c'mon! don't let a popcombo from 30 years ago still be the best!

# Nix to that.
Queen got my vote. Would have been Bowie, but Queen have a better chance of winning.

(ed:)Besides, the point is it's the best of the last 50 years. And, unless 25 - 50% of Norman Cook dies quickly and tragically, he doesn't stand a chance of getting the legendary status necessary for that kind of accolade.

# Mr.Jeem
Sadly, as well you know, the sodding Beatles will always win. These things are rigged. I am convinced of it.
Where are The Who, The Kinks, The Clash, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd et al.
The Beatles always win overall, with Queen winning the 'Bestest single' award.
Don't fight it.
I want you to sit back and relax....This won't hurt a bit.
