This will worry you, but I was thinking of you the other day
The Matthew Morrison/Neil Patrick Harris version of Dream On that we were discussing recently became the first song written by Aerosmith to ever gain a repeat play on my iPod

That is all

that is interesting
it is a good song. obviously anything that NPH is involved in is great as well.

Am also starting to wonder if any given Aerosmith song will immediately become better by removing that big-lipped twat of a singer

(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 10 Jun 2010, 13:13, Reply)

it's possible

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Thu 10 Jun 2010, 13:17, Reply)

Acid test
You get your band together and learn "Dude Looks Like a Lady". I'll sing. If it still sounds better than Aerosmith's version then the point will be proven.

I CANNOT sing.

could we try a song I already know?
It'd make life easier

Do you know any Aerosmith songs?
Tread very carefully here

I can play Eat the rich
can manage a bit of Walk this way, and at a push I might be able to remember how to play Living on the edge
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Thu 10 Jun 2010, 13:32, Reply)

Walk This Way has already proven the theory
Run DMC take the credit for being the first people to make Aerosmith good

EDIT: they paved the way for Linkin Park to do the same for Jay-Z
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 10 Jun 2010, 13:36, Reply)

I actually think the original without Run DMC is much better

Hayseed Dixie's cover is also quality, I feel.

that is true

You really have a vendetta against them, don't you?
Did Steve Tyler touch you inappropriately when you were younger?

_{(For my own ha'p'orth, I quite like some of their earlier stuff, i.e., before they cleaned up. After they cleaned up I can't be arsed, with the possible exception of Eat the Rich.)}

I share your views
things like Sweet Emotion and Dream On are great songs.

Toys in the Attic
is a good album, on the whole. Get Your Wings also has its moments and I've not heard the first. Similarly, I share your views on the two competing versions of Walk this Way.

My friend is going to see them in concert next week - apparently the ticket cost him about £80 - and he asked me if I wanted to join him. If they were going to only play the early stuff and the ticket was a quarter of the price, maybe I'd consider it, but you know that the crowd will have mostly come to hear Love in an Elevator and other such turgid stadium rock gurnings.

Aerosmith are shit, fact.
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Thu 10 Jun 2010, 13:20, Reply)

Yes they are
Am strongly considering the possibility that it's only Neil Patrick Harris who can make them good
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 10 Jun 2010, 13:27, Reply)

I don't know who NPH is

just looked at Wikipedia
Meh

Doogie Howser MD

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Thu 10 Jun 2010, 13:32, Reply)

I don't what this is either...
Wikipedia: Doogie Howser, M.D. is an American television comedy-drama starring Neil Patrick Harris as a 16-year old doctor who also faces the problems of being a normal teenager.

Wow

that

sounds

great

it was very 80s
the actor who played him is in some amusing stuff these days. and was in an episode of Glee.

What he said
Doogie Howser was a bag o' bobbins to be fair
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 10 Jun 2010, 13:37, Reply)

I only really remember that it existed
not what it was like

Luckily I've just summarised it for you
NPH had yet to achieve full awesome
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 10 Jun 2010, 13:40, Reply)

By full awesome I suppose you mean massive pile of wank

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Thu 10 Jun 2010, 13:43, Reply)

have you seen any of that thing he did
possibly Dr Horrible's something?
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Thu 10 Jun 2010, 13:44, Reply)

Erm, no
Is that the Joss Whedon thing?
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 10 Jun 2010, 13:45, Reply)

*researches*
apparently yes

I haven't seen it either
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Thu 10 Jun 2010, 13:46, Reply)

This is a relatively pointless discussion then
Unless someone who's seen it wants to chime in... *holds breath*
