The Ramones posh? Amazing. Literally no one has ever thought the Ramones were posh.
Album sales and T-shirt royalties notwithstanding...😢
@@shadhansen739Jesus, two of them died of cancer in their late 40s & early 50s. The other of an OD of heroin at 50. They made a living, that's it. Born working class, die young.
Yeah, he appears to know nothing about the Ramones, or American punk music at all. But I mean, he DID listen to one of their songs so...
@@paulvanreesch2493 Along those lines, you might want to give Jim Jarmusch's doc on the Stooges a miss - if you haven't seen it already.
For the same reason.
Great film - don't get me wrong.
But it's REALLY disheartening to hear a two hour gushing tribute to the profound influence that these guys had on the decades that followed - knowing that Ron and Scott Asheton both died in precisely the same modest Ann Arbor environs in which they grew up.
All that posthumous glory rings a little hollow.
@@chriscoughlin9289 Too late, saw it when it premiered at a theater in Detroit (live in the metro Detroit region). I was disappointed in the Jarmusch Stooges, thought it was phoned in. &, yes, y're right, both Ashestons died too young.
Alan Partridge: "I was firing my friend's air gun into a beef tomato. And here is - Mick Hucknall and Simply Red..."
I watched that again recently!!!!!
Lovely stuff!
Charlie Brooker summed up Mumford and Sons better than anyone else.
"The Trust-fund Wurzels"
In the sitcom Peep Show, Super Hans claimed they demanded the Ramsgate Blowjob.
Stunning summary!
I also liked Huw Stephens describing them as "Take That with a banjo"
A pal of mine used to call them mummy’s boys and sons.
Wurzel? Of Motörhead??
I remember a line in Monty Python and the Holy Grail where the army yells, “Get on with it!”
It was "Skip a bit, brother..." :)
Coldplay are what cold congealed gravy soaked Yorkshire puddings and boiled beef would sound like
Soy vegan burgers more like
Nasal crap
The musical equivalent of woodchip wallpaper
I don't like Alan McGee but I think he describes cold play as music for bed wetters and I think that sums them up
@@lozyoung4110 a magnolia one at that...
Didn't know Ramones is a band, thought was T-shirt company😮
Well, in a way you are rights since 99 percent of the people who wear these shirts have never heard the band...
@@probusexcogitatoris736 Like Che Guevara Ltd.
..NO PROBLEM..!
@@probusexcogitatoris736and 99% of the people who say that have never stopped to ask if they know the music, they just ASSUME they don’t know.
@@probusexcogitatoris736 Also true for Bob Marley and Pink Floyd.
The Ramones were NOT posh boys. They were lower middle class kids from Queens, a not glamorous outer boro of New York City.
FYI in UK middle class means upper class (in USA standards), I learned that the hard way when I moved to UK. .
ie: Lower middle class UK= Upper middle class USA.
Workings class UK= lower middle class USA
Because the royalty are considered the upper class in UK, the next richest people in UK are called middle class (aka Upper class in USA). Confusing right?!?!?!
@@Strimbles thanks so much for the lesson! So much gets lost in translation.
Downright poor, from what I understand.
@@jimtoms7591so the story goes
Every time I listen to you...I regret ever finding your channel.
It would be a really boring music world if we all loved and hated the same bands.
If we all hated the same bands those bands wouldn't exist so it's impossible for everyone to hate the same bands.
@@sophocles1198
Always gotta be a wise guy in the house. lol.
@@AetherPavilion Sophocles is an Epistemologist.
Miserable too - if the only place that I was allowed to see a guy like Ry Cooder or Richard Thompson was a basketball arena.
But somehow I'll find a way to swallow the bitter pill of their commercial 'failure'
Quite the opposite. If we all loved the same bands, we would have a solid community to share it all.
Travis Barker is the drummer for Blink 182 and as far as I am aware, still alive.
I'm not up on either band, but I didn't think that sounded right.
He survived a plane crash.
Watching this guy rock back and forth is giving me sea sickness
@rolanddeschain. That’s the Allan Holdsworth in him.
I think he’s on the spectrum
He also doesn't look at the LENS! He look off to his right, at the display.
I think it started after he was on the Sea of Tranquility a couple of times.
I'd listen to his podcast bit I'm also sensitive to motion and his constant rocking is making me nauseous.
I recently went through an awkward period where my shower wasn't working quite right. Before I got around to getting it fixed properly, I repeatedly tried standing there, naked and expectant beneath the head, as an incredibly fine, insubstantial spray breezed over my tilted silhouette. I would then exit the cubicle feeling like I'd been kissed by a warm but moist breeze, strangely unfulfilled and too quickly dry. It reminded me of listening to The Lighthouse Family.
😂
you write sooo well
how come?
@@wsplatinum Too many Prog lyric sleeves read have I!🤓
That was very satisfying.
Thank you for making such a generous contribution to the internet's overall readability.
The Ramones were far from posh; Johnny was a pipefitter apprentice. At their peak in 77-78 their live show was like AC-DC on speed and Johnny had a huge guitar sound very akin to that of Leslie West. Tommy's drumming had a sense of swing and Marky was very powerful and precise. Before REO succumbed to sloppy ballads they were a very good live act, tight, hard rocking and powerful and Gary Richrath was a very good guitarist.
Your taste is cack. I think I'd hate your record collection.
Which Ramones Band was this? was this the New Jersey Band?
A bit like Chicago. They were good when they started but then became horrible.
@@vordman I mean, Chicago has never been a bad band, but the material turned to dogshit. That's the sad part, they could probably still melt faces if they wanted.
The way people, including myself in the past, use the phrase "sense of swing" is kinda weird, given 'swing' actually does mean something very specific in music. But usually people don't mean that. They mean a sense of groove via dynamics..... unless the Ramones actually have music with real swing. I won't pretend to be super familiar with their catalog, but what I have heard sounded like pretty standard on-the-grid 4/4 stuff, sans any hint of real swing.
Bon Jovi, Bon Jovi, and Bon Jovi. Living on my hair.
ohhhhh we're half way queer
@@Les537Ohhh oh! Extensions in your hair!!
Yes, that one he surely forgot to include!
LMAO 😂stop please. I'll never hear that song the same again
Wings! absolute garbage, fingernails on a blackboard.
Swap Dire Straits for bloody U2
Swap Ramones for Kiss
does Kiss qualify as a band? they are more like professional wrestlers with guitars
No chance lol, many worse bands than kiss, but i agree ramones shouldn't be here. Many far worse than kiss, who had plenty of good albums in the early 70s and solid live records. Bands like Bon Jovi, Stryper, Motley Crue, Poison, Europe, Journey belong there far more than Kiss, who aside from the absolute rage from the older generations towards them likely due to gene simmons being a right shithead, made some solid bloody tunes and did alot for live gigs and stage productions.
One band absolutely no-one can ever hate: Thin Lizzy.
I would agree.
Rather a band ANYONE can easily love.
I agree
Except those who hear The Boys Are Back In Town or Dancing In The Moonlight on the radio for the millionth time.
They were TERRIBLE.
REO Speedwagon is my guiltiest of guilty rock pleasures. I absolutely LOVE Gary Richrath’s lead guitar on Roll With the Changes. Isn’t rock supposed to be fun, anyway ? Give me REO over, say, Coldplay, ANY day.
His leads on all of their hits! My fave is his outro on Don't Let Him Go.
“Roll With the Changes” is actually a banger of a stadium rock song. You can have every other REO song. Please.
great song, as is riding the storm out. i hate all other songs by them tho
@@mccallosone4903 You guys have chosen wisely. I think Andrew would truly love the album title, "You Can Tune a Piano, but You Can't Tuna Fish". Very punny indeed. It did have "Roll with the Changes" and the 3rd best REO song, "Time for Me to Fly" (both of these were written by Kevin Cronin). "Ridin' the Storm Out" was Richrath penned and his solos jammed on all 3 of them.
Aye, two lives of REO. Check out the 70ties
A man fluent in clickbait, like yourself, is hardly going to settle for "bands I have no time for and find pretty annoying" now is he?
Kinda the same thing…
pretty _bloody_ annoying
laughter ........ brilliant comment. I'm only here because when the brits say "bloody" it sounds like they really mean it.
Bunch of channels who figured out or got told there's a form of algorithm-friendly whining one trick ponyism, extremely tawdry and obnoxious. Yawn. At least there are functions for blocking them from getting recommended.
@@zendakk Andt here you are increasing the "engagement", as am I, but at least I'm not yawning about it.
Kiss, Kiss, Kiss and Kiss.
i liked KISS when I was eight. I outgrew KISS...now I cannot stand them.
Totally agree....... all glitz and very little musical satisfaction
Great image. Never wrote a decent song
yup 100%
@@DavePaint Agree. Some school friends went to see them round about the time of Destroyer. They raved about the gig, so eventually I borrowed the album. I was impressed with the album cover, but the music was nothing. By-the-numbers boring hard rock. It was purely their image and the stage show that sold the albums.
An hour of music critique without talking about music. But about social origin, image. My god
Dudes a 🤡
Entertaining as always. You are spot on about Reo Speedwagon, The Foo Fighters, Simply Red. I hate blandness too. Coldplay should have been on there along with U2.
I miss the list on the left. I vote to bring it back.
Dave Grohl = "the Max Bygraves of rock", Mick Hucknall = "a putrified scotch egg" - haha!
Ironically, the drum intro to "Money For Nothing" was the only drumming on Brothers In Arms that the great Omar Hakim DIDN'T do - it was played by Terry Williams who rejoined the band for the subsequent tour.
I appreciated how pertinent your preamble was in these troubled times Andy. Good on you.
This single vid has to make you love Omar Hakim's drumming:
ruclips.net/video/hBNcKZ8Oh34/видео.html
I loved Terry Williams when he was Man's drummer though.
I think OK played on Stings Bring On The Night Live vid? I just remember seeing some of the drumming!
Sting comments:’You were on fire tonight!’ (sic.) Don’t know if he was p***ed off or not!:)
Dire Straights-example of a good but - to me- boring guitarist.
If you saw Iggy and the Stooges in Detroit 1970 (and the MC5) like I did you would say yeah that's the origin of punk
Nope - not even those guys would've said that.
They would've directed you to the opening chords of 'You Really Got Me'
Even Townshend - who is CONSTANTLY credited as granddaddy - freely admits that he copped the riff from 'Can't Explain' from it.
It likely came from a think tank, like most other genres. Unfortunately
The Ramones' influences were basically all pre-hippie. Like the New York Dolls, they sounded a lot closer to the Kingsmen (or a rocked-up Herman's Hermits) than to the Stooges. You never heard the Ramones do a ten-minute dirge like We Will Fall on the first Stooges album.
@@IanmackableThat has as much to do with how the Ramones very cannily packaged themselves as it does with their obvious love of a pre - sandbox Brian Wilson.
Those guys went to catch the Dolls during their historic stand at the ill fated Mercer Arts, and they would later remark repeatedly in interviews over the years that they were struck by the theater of it all.
Staying in character - and always delivering the goods within a certain set of parameters - became a HUGE key to the enduring appeal of the Ramones.
It seems obvious enough to me - having caught them live virtually every chance I got from 1977 onward.
But not everybody gives them credit for that relentless discipline
It would be absurd to suggest that anybody ever even got the chance to pigeonhole the Stooges in the same fashion.
It just wasn't even on the table.
Music that will survive 100 years +??? Certainly NOT Taylor Swift!!
Add Coldplay, Adele, Stormzy, Pink, Dua Lipa, Ariana Grande and Ed Sheeran to that too!!
God, today's successful popular music is a million times worse than every band you've just mentioned!!
Let's just worry about surviving another 100 years, we can squabble over music taste later.
@@user-qb1sm3rk9r Excellent point by the way!!
I take it you mean that, as we're closer to WW3 than we've ever been,
the globe might be mere dust in space before the year 2124??
That said, being as I'm 23 now,
I certainly don't expect to be here in a 100 years time, so I won't be around to squabble!!
But I'm guessing The Beatles, The Stones, Floyd, Genesis, The Doors, Steely Dan and Supertramp
will still be getting played by the people who were brought up to have great musical taste, like I've been!!
Thanks for taking the time to message, much appreciated!!
Peace!! x
How can anywon hate Ramones?
What a load of nonsense.A couple of Swift's albums WILL be be played in the future, they are great. She is incredibly talented.
@@turntablesrockmyworld9315 You're entitled to your opinion as I am entitled to mine!!
You think she's talented and that's your prerogative,
However, I honestly believe most lovers of serious music like myself would vehemently disagree!!
Let's park it there!!
Hall and Oates is easily the biggest selling pop duo of all time. Inform yourself. Every single Google search article confirms it.
I thought he was going to say H&O too but maybe he means the biggest selling duo in the UK.
@@nolagospeltracts8264 Maybe, but being that he is a clickbait troll, maybe not......lol
They can't stand each other. Good songs but feels like a 'project'. Don't get me wrong I totally love Hall and Oates. Perfect pop rock. Hard enough for the guys, smooth enough for the gals.
Popular doesn't mean good.
Bands that will survive 100 years+ list. Remember, Andy.
ZAPPA WOULD TOP THIS LIST FOR ME. IMO THE MOST SINGULAR MUSICIAN OF HIS CENTURY 🎉
@@shadhansen739 Apart from the obvious Beatles/Stones, I'd say early Genesis & Yes. Floyd. The Who.
that would be interesting ,
Motorhead, Led Zep, i would even go Abba
Air Supply.
The factor that makes the music of the Ramones interesting was Joey, a gawky, autistic guy that figured out a way to turn all the qualities that got him beaten up at age 12 into something cool. And it was very, very cool.
Mental dispositions figure little in my appreciation for music, you can "aw well done you" all you want they were still overrated shite
Except that they weren't REMOTELY the first.
Ask anybody like me - who's old enough to remember the Stooges getting spit on at almost every gig they played during their 'Raw Power' tour in 1973.
Love ❤️ his version of satchimo's "WONDERFUL WORLD"
I like the Ramones. The first few albums sound like a souped up version of those sixties Girls Groups, but with lyrics about pinheads, dysfunctional families and shock treatment instead of The Clapping Song. They're more Rock and Roll than Rock. They seem like pre-Beatles and Dylan pop songs recast for a less positive era.
Don’t bother trying to explain it. As Strummer used to say, “It ain’t for those who don’t understand”
Pet Shop Boys, yuppies? Weren't they very left wing? The line 'Che Guavara and Debussy to a disco beat...' And didn't they play live in Trafalgar Square as they projected a Soviet, Socialist Realist movie by Eisenstein?!
They were gay communists before it was popular.
Being left is not what it is cracked up to be. Look at the state of the world today.
That was the worst thing to happen to the "left" since Billy Bragg
I used to like Billy Bragg. When I was 12
The Left have always been funded by oligarchs. The Oligarchs invented the Left.
leftists became yuppies
On 30 May 1988 I saw the Creatures (Siouxsie and Budgie) play their first comeback gig at the Garage at Highbury Corner. Afterwards, I got on the tube, and the carriage was full of people who had either been at the Creatures, or had been at Wembley Arena to see the Shitehouse Family. Those who had seen the Creatures all looked hot and sweaty, and all had huge smiles on their faces. Those who had seen the Shitehouse Family all looked bored shitless!
The Creatures are a great band; even better than the Banshees for me.
The Ramones were a great band so are Pet Shop boys. They both have brought out excellent material.

Dad ( Grandad ) Rock rools forever ! God we were bloody spoiled in the 70s .
Though every generatiion will think the music they grew up with ( 13 - 19 ) is the greatest of all hyperbolic time .
Except the current one . There is no way at 17 that I wanted to listen to music from the forties . But I regularly read in the comments , current teenagers ( Z ? ) saying /moaning that they werent growing up im 60s / 70s finding the hegemony of Ed Sheerbore , and the underpowered ( jaded) whispering from Drake . Swift is obviously a stellar phonomenen and kind of ok I suppose but nothing thats sounds life or death stuff ( Hendrix or Beatles Nirvana Sly Stone ) but then I would say that I will be 98 in September of this year .
P.S. Lana Del Ray rools !
Holy cow - let's hope so!
I love to love music, and I love to hate music.
@@jonunderscore I love finding new bands to hate even more than finding new stuff to love. I've recently got into hating reggaeton, Blues Traveler and The Dave Matthews Band. Not being American I'd never heard owt by the latter two till last monday. Andy would love these two.
Dire Straits ? REALLY ??? I heard their first album for the first time on a NYC FM station when it was first released as I was driving home from work. When I got home I said to my then gf 'Give me $10., which she did while asking 'Why, whats up ?". I replied 'You'll understand shortly, I'm heading to the record store, be back in a few'. What a great album that was !
One of your best. Can't wait for More Ten BANDS I Bloody Hate | RANKED.
I had a boss who once worked in a hotel where Marillion stayed whilst on tour. Somehow Fish (real name Derek Dick) managed somehow to annoy him. As a result he referred to Fish as Mr Dick, eg "Certainly Mr Dick", "What paper do you want in the morning Mr Dick. "
The only time I saw Marillion was at the Theakson Music Festival in 1982. They were one of the support bands to Jethro Tull. I found them so boring I fell asleep. When I woke up, the beer tent had closed so I may have been the only person who was there who didn't have a drink of beer.
Wang Chung (or Huang Chung as they were then) were on the same bill. Their lead singers voice broke and their synths all broke down.
@@johnelwen4435Amazing that the Wang Chung singer was in a pro band at the age of 13😁
@@acoustically9201 Just looked him up. He was 26 in 1982.
@johnelwen4435 haha, I remember all that! Were they the band who were playing along to a backing track, but their tape machine broke so they had to call it a day?
@@LCD72 It was the keyboards that packed in. The guitars and drums were still playing. They spent a short while trying to get them going again whilst playing on without them. Then cut the set short.
My recollection of the late seventies and early eighties was that if bands used a backing tape, they were upfront about it. I remember gigs where the band had the tape machine on stage with them.
The class anger is hilarious... Love it
Favourite put down..." The Eagles are a plastic dry f*ck " ..Gram Parsons .
The only way I would find an Eagles album useful is to use it to keep dust off my turntable …Tom Waits
Quality
Which is highly ironic coming from the guy who destroyed the Byrds.
The Eagles adjust awful. Overrated Brain numbing destroying generic music.i have so much hate for that band 🤬🤬🤬their torture to my ears🤣🤣🤣
Worst band ever.
You're probably the very first person to confess literal hate for Dire Straits. One of my favorite bands btw
NGL, I thought Coldplay were the posh version of Coldplay and Keane were the even posher version of Coldplay.
It would have been too easy to put Coldplay on this list, Keane is the edgier pick for a band to hate.
YNWA
Milli Vanilli? Wham! ? Bucks Fizz? Guns ‘n Roses?

@@admarhermans1 Guns N Roses made a great album
Don't judge REO Speedwagon by their 80's stuff, just like its unfair to judge Yes or Genesis by their 80's crap. Listen to the live version of "Ridin' the Storm Out" and "Roll With the Changes" ...or watch the video. Gary Richrath was a great guitar player.
Truth! Saw them in 79 in Houston and they kicked ass. Thank god for Rockpalast who preserved that tour on film. REO at their peak. The 80s ballad fad killed many a band. I blame Dennis de Young for that😊
The double Live is good.
REO Speedwagon is underrated as a band. I think their 80's stuff is just fine. Hi Infidelity was a good album. Unlike Andy, I harbor no hatred towards them.
Oasis, Coldplay, Foo Fighters, Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit.
Dang! I agree with every single one,,,,
Live Forever by Oasis is a fantastic song!
Champagne Supernova.
Cigarettes and Alcohol.
Whatever You Want.
All good songs imho.
They went rapidly downhill quite quickly though and imho Wonderwall is one of the most overrated songs of all-time! Almost as big a dirge as our awful national anthem.
@@58BURST 👍
@@Carboggg Agree. One of my friends loved them, had NG hairstyle and glasses - but we could talk Allan Holdsworth 😃
I saw Linkin Park at a festival by happenstance, and they were actually a good live band. Their records are just so overproduced that they are colorless and odorless.
Andy instantly losing credibility for not recognising the songwriting genius of the Pet Shop Boys
Agree
I received a laptop computer in 2008. I had never known computers. Hoo-boy. I discovered that I was a few decades behind. Now: There are YT channelers "of a certain age" whose computer moves I can actually follow. This is one of them.
Why would you waste your hate on The Lighthouse Family?
Because they were absolutely trash?
Radiohead started off as a pretty standard rock band but they had a very Beatle-like transition and kept changing their sound and made some pretty great music.
Pyramid Song is one of the greatest songs I've ever heard.I met them in 1992 and they were nice guys.Set up their own gear too.
Rocket to Russia is an amazing Ramones album
It's my favourite for sure.... It has all the energy of the first two albums with better recording and better songwriting. It's sad to say because it was so early in their career but I think it was their peak. Road to Ruin feels like the start of the downturn.
Who could dislike "Rockaway Beach"?
I like the title.
@@IzunaSlap And "I Wanna Be Sedated".....brilliant ! 😃
@@IzunaSlap Andy, because apparently they're too posh.
Ramones? Obviously, you have never seen them in concert.

REM is great..a dorky band that is fun
They got pretty spotty later on, but the early albums ("Chronic Town" mini-album through "Life's Rich Pageant") were just about as cool as it gets.
U2. My hate for everything U2 has ever done knows no bounds.
@@Les537
Way past their best now but they did make some songs in their day. Bono is an insufferable knob though.
@@Carboggg I admit to liking New Years Day when I was a kid with a walkman a million years ago, but it was all down hill for U2 after that!

The Fly. The dance remix of The Real Thing. A few others I quite like.
Not one of my big favs by any means, but I have to give them for having big hits for so many years. Great consistency and drive to keep it together at the top for 20 + years.
The whole Negativeland debacle was a good laugh!
The unforgettable fire is the exception as Bono hadn’t become an insufferable toff yet
Oh this’ll be fun! 😊
Yeah. Negativity isn't cool and yet it's so fun! It's like a breakfast made exclusively out of bacon.
Aw no, Pet Shop Boys are one of my favorite groups. I don't think you really get them and that's okay, they're not for everyone. But their lyrics are full of wry irony and wit. And Chris Lowe's arrangements are masterfully constructed, nuanced and magical. Chris' outward appearance of not doing anything and just being the "other guy" who looks bored, is intentional and part of their aloof image. Neil Tennant will admit he isn't the strongest vocalist, but there is something comforting about his even, soft tenor and it's a very distinctive sound. I also love their passion for their craft and I think their popularity over the years is beyond warranted. They are constantly dedicated to their art and have released 15 studio albums, still successful and still charting. While they always retain their PSB sound, all of their albums have a different vibe and theme to them. There are so many bands that formed in the 80s that can never recapture the sound and popularity of their early days, but Pet Shop Boys never had that issue. But if you're not a fan and don't know their whole discography, I can see why one might have a distaste for them. They may be one of those groups where you have to really love them to understand them. The rest of your list is spot on (I especially can't stand Coldplay), I kind of have to like the Ramones though because I'm from NY.
Agree. But there is also a lot of other nonsens in this video. The Ramones posh?
I think that the first two Dire Straits albums are fantastic. Lady Writer is just wonderful. I just wish that solo didn’t fade out when it did.
I hate to wait for hate on a plate. C'mon give it to me! :) :) All the best, Andy!
Great attitude. Wish people weren't so serious about vids, and move to other music channels.
Totally agree with your #1 Andy. I've lost count of how many people I've told of my hate for Lighthouse Family. However, I'd have Wet Wet Wet at #2 for the very same reason, insipid crap !
Do not mess with French Mustard; real Dijon mustard is far more ferocious than your staple Coleman's mustard
Rubbish!
Trackleman’s English mustard is hot as the devils pitch fork!
Rubbish. It just looks better.
I've probably never had the genuine Dijon but English mustard makes your eyeballs bleed.

Everything was going well, but you had to ruin everything. Dire Straits?! No one is allowed to hate Dire Straits!! Even not liking is a serious crime, but hating, NEVER!
PS - Put Queen in Dire Straits' place and the list will be perfect and I'll be able to give it a like.

Yeah I'm completely over Queen. Used to love em but they've been done to death. Can't even stand the sound of Freddy's voice now!
Dire Straights, dire music. Glorified pub band😂
"Hate is a strong word, isn't it?" Oh, this is going to be good
When the first Ramones album came out in ‘76 it was a revelation. Saw them live several times late 70s/early 80s and they were visceral raw and incredibly exciting
the ramones were the furthest from posh boys as any americans that have ever lived
I definitely agree with Mumford and Sons. It baffles me how they are more popular than the immensely more talented Fleet Foxes.
Yup- Fleet Foxes are amazing
Mumford and Sons had the sheer audacity to be unique.
brother in arms is beautiful
That’s what I’m talking about! Absolutely perfect record
On Every Street too!!!!
Ramones played over 10,000 live performances. They packed their shit into a van and set it up and played without any "management" only some rocket fuel to get them through the nights. The sex pistols played heavily duct taped shows under the watchful eye of promoters for a very brief period, before the dissolved, bereft of any new creative material. You can call them bubble camp punk, or punk-lite, but the ramones cranked out alot of music, and kept clubs rocking for 3 decades. They are the embodiment of a rock band. I am biased because I am originally from NY and grew up 2 miles from rockaway beach. I agree about most of those other bands in the list.
But they sound dull to me
@@AndyEdwardsDrummer The kkk took my baby away, A bit 2chordy and highly repetitive, but they kept writing and never proclaimed themselves Jesus or lady's men. You could relate with them because they spoke of the troubles nerds had picking up and retaining chicks. And oh yeah....drugs. NY was loaded with drugs. drugs on the beach, drugs in my shoe drugs in the house, drugs in the basement.... back then. Hanging out all by myself
I don't want to be with anybody else
I just want to be with you
I just want to have something to do
Tonight, tonight, tonight
The key Andy is they kept writing and you could relate to it. Not my favorites, not as sophisticated as the police, but they are Americana and sometimes I just wanna be sedated.
@@AndyEdwardsDrummer But also your opinion is objectively wrong, so nothing you say matters.
@@the-NightStar confidence...
sure they had the pedigree....but they only really had one song that they played over and over.
Unbelievably there's one I agree with on here but it's not PSB. I just think you might have missed the point with West End Girls specifically as a record let alone them because the whole thing that makes it timeless (but also redolent of it's time) is that it sums up a REALLY AWFUL time but does it in very engaging way - I would also point out the track King's Cross (a favourite of mine) and the film It Couldn't Happen Here - becauss they're all trying to get the same reaction, with a nod and a wink - basically you either get the message or you don't really. If you like the same influences as the duo (be it films music or whatever else) then you're probably more likely to get the emotional response and that's more down to places and cultures than any personal angst that's being flogged.
As well as being great Pop writers and Tennant brilliant lyrics, they’ve usually included a few experimental tracks on every album - The Sound Of The Atom Splitting, The Way Through The Woods etc. even releasing their own 10 minute ‘Pop Prog’ epic ‘Cricket Wife’…
@@michaelantonyaustin
True. I've got rather a lot of PSB stuff to catch up with actually they're so prolific!
snobby music critics I bloody hate 1. Andy Edwards
He must have hit a nerve.I agree with everything he hates.Youre free to disagree.
All you need is hate!
😃
A popular clasic song by "The Fuc***g Stones".
Funny fact, I nearly ran over Mick Hucknall once, he was crossing the road, Shaftesbury Avenue in 1981 and I had to break hard not to hit him! I said to the young lady I was in the car with, "Look its Mick Hucknall" she said, "You nearly hit him!"
Better luck next time.
Difference between Mick Hucknall and a dead snake 🐍 in the road?... = "skidmarks in front of the snake"😮😅😂
Love it. Your dislike of marillion is personal which is a shame
Nah.
Disliking something should be impersonal ?
You need to listen to 'Telegraph Road' off the "Love Over Gold" album and the "Making Movies" album. Dire Straits did not make a bad album, and arrived during that era when a lot of the music business started to strip down the progressive dial in the studios with punk and electronica. Dire Straits had no category you could spin them into. They were not retro rock like The Stray Cats, nor glam/prog like Ultravox or Roxy Music, nor pop. They stood out because there was nobody like them, and the guitar playing and arrangements were always excellent with impeccable sound. You need to take a real listen. Thanks for the segment and humor.
Great video. Yep, I was the punk/goth guy listening Sisters of Mercy. I just subscribed to your channel.
"Lifted" by The Lighthouse Family can be easily re-worded into a fun ditty about the joy of shoplifting.
Or as Mark and Lard created, Fisted, apparently it’s about a goal keeper fisting the balls away, apparently. 😀
But let's not eh.
can't agree about Marillion. they were fab during the Fish era and to me they were pretty much responsible for the re-birth of prog rock after being virtually killed off by Punk rock. they paved the way for other bands to follow such as Pendragon, Porcupine tree and hundreds more. i bought their CD's during the eighties which i regret now because i collect vinyls but having said that, the production of their CD's was superb. they descended into mediocrity once Fish left.
Did that "snob" "communist" call The Ramones "posh"? Sex Pistols were just McLaren's (first?) boysband. Hilarious video though 😄
What do you mean by "French Mustard"? Do you mean from the brand French's, which is American yellow mustard, from the name of the creator 'French' (nothing to do with France), or mustard from France? Mustard from France is Dijon mustard, it looks pretty similar to English mustard (quite dark), but is less sweet and REALLY gets up your nose to a much higher degree than English mustard.
No, thats a different mustard. groceries.asda.com/product/mustard/asda-mild-french-mustard-185-g/25493
Who is Lighthouse? May have heard the name but never heard one second on their music.
Were they big in the UK?
Listen to Lifted and Ocean Drive, the two great singles they released out of their good first album.
If you don't know who Max Bygreaves was, then you have never really suffered
I've never heard of Max Bygreaves. But knowing that I never heard of him makes me want to find out who he is. Am I making a mistake? Update: I now have a song called Tulips From Amsterdam stuck in my head. I only have myself to blame.
@@_Peremalfaithe didn’t half sell some records ,not my taste but my grandmother loved him😀
Did Andy say Travis Barker was dead instead of Taylor Hawkins?
Yes
The hate disorientated him for a moment there.
I'm very nearly one of the the best RUclips subscribers to music rant channels.
Funny thing is that I agree with you on many points and (how could it be else) totally disagree on others. But even on those point I enjoy the way you express your hatred a lot! Fun watch.
Best ranked video on the interweb, are you watching Rick Beato this is how to do it !
Pet Shop Boys parodied yuppies rather than being an example of them, they were and are left-leaning artists (they even wrote a serious song about Soviet Socialism, My October Symphony!).
That's the only group I totally disagreed with
A serious song ... as in one?
@@paulatB2B one... as in the song named one?
Bee Gees or Metallica?
Being boring is such a genius song... For the rest I admire them for doing their own thing. Never had anything against them, but the music is a matter of taste of course.
I wasn't sure about the Pet Shop Boys at first, but they've done some absolute bangers, including tracks hidden away as b-sides and in the graveyard slot (second to last song on the album). People's perception of Neil T's lack of vocal talent I think stems from West End Girls and a handful of early talky tracks, but personally I think his singing voice is lovely. Emotionless it isn't. Alison Goldfrapp on the other hand... some periods of Pink Floyd on the other hand... Also alot of the issues around PSB seem to relate to image. That's the same reason I can't stand The Stones
Winston out of Mumford and Sons was named after the character in "In Sickness and in Health"
Probably.
His full name is Winston Aubrey Aladar deBalkan Marshall and his dad owns GB News. What's not to hate?

If the you tube thing doesn't work out... Their's definitely a bright future in an REO Speedwagon cover band.
The Ramones stripped every remaining hint of the blues from their version of rock. They make Status Quo sound like Robert Johnson.

Interesting. Thanks.
Ramones - real deal. Not posh boys, sorry
Punk came from America: Johnny Thunders and the Hearbreakers and the Ramones along with the NY Dolls influenced all the English kids. Steve Jones copped every pose with a guitar he ever did from Johnny.
US punk emerged from 60s garage which was heavily influenced by the British invasion - and France too contributed a chunk of the philosophy & attitude of the end product. No single country can claim ownership of punk as it emerged in 1976, it was always a collaboration.
Totally agree with your choices 100%… May I suggest a few honourable mentions [all Scottish] Deacon Blue, Travis and wet wet wet, n’est pas..? 😂
Andy, you're NOT looking at the lens, your looking at the DISPLAY!
Yes...well spotted there
