Of course it is
It's by John Mellencamp

I can't decide who is worse
him, or Bruce Springsteen

Him, definitely
Springsteen has had a couple of semi-decent tunes, I think. It's just harder to forget his crimes against music because he's been more successful and therefore prominent.

That's enough out of you, Legless.

I read that as Legolas
Although that might be because I've just read a story on Empire about Orlando Bloom being in The Hobbit

Right, I'm going to bring up CombiChrist
and politely tell you to fuck off until you've got a leg to stand on musically.
(Bazongaloid, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 14:36, Reply)

CombiChrist are awesome
Labs would agree. I doubt you'll find a right-thinking person east of New Jersey who doesn't think John Mellencamp is anything other than a pointless twat.

See below.
Also, you don't want to be bringing up Labs' opinion of something as some form of validation. Going there is a venture into seriously negative space.

Hahahahaha!
Is he still oblivious to what was meant by this?

I believe so.

Good, good.

Yep, oblivious

the only good song from john COUGAR mellancamp is "hurt so good"

( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 14:40, Reply)

I'm willing to say the John Mellecamp isn't great, though I do like a few of his tunes
but Bruce Springsteen is fucking excellent.
(Bazongaloid, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 14:42, Reply)

No he isn't

(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 14:42, Reply)

Yes he is.
You colossal homosexual.
(Bazongaloid, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 14:47, Reply)

It's not that much of an insult, "colossal homosexual"
because a) it's overdone and b) I know it's not true.

But if I were to tell you that you like shit music, that's accurate.
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 15:04, Reply)

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say he's a bit shit.
I quite prefer Bryan Adams
( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 14:43, Reply)

You see, now you can just SHUT YOUR DAMNED FACE KRISTINE.

*shakes head sadly*

Bryan Adams! For the love of god!
(Bazongaloid, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 14:46, Reply)

"Summer of 69" is the song I think of when I think of my childhood!
My mom listened to it all of the time!
Better than saying Michael Bolton.
And really, Bruce Springsteen is fucking SHIT.

How can we be lovers if we can't be friends Kristine?

How can I punch you in the gizzard if you're so far away Al?

( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 14:53, Reply)

I bet you don't like Dire Straits either do you?

(Bazongaloid, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 14:55, Reply)

Dire Straits are shit though.

( Davros' Granddad a voice of calm reason in a world of spastics., Wed 1 Jun 2011, 14:57, Reply)

Oh man
What is this, "Gang up on Al" day or something?
(Bazongaloid, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 14:59, Reply)

It's "you probably shouldn't talk shit about darths taste in music when yours is questionable at best."

( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 15:01, Reply)

Kristine is right.
She and I have massively opposite tastes in music, but we're agreed on yours.
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 15:02, Reply)

I wouldn't listen to them every day.
But they're waaaaaaaaaaaay better than Springsteen.
( Lisette von Falcon, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 14:59, Reply)

Bryan Adams has produced at least one belting tune
Which is one more than Springsteen
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Wed 1 Jun 2011, 15:02, Reply)

Springsteen produced many belming tunes though.
