Queen!

I also like The Smiths though.

I can't help but hate U2, b/c Bono pisses me off. He has those stupid sunglasses fused to his head.

UK/GB/Britain refers to a country, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland....alright....now, Ireland, whose capital is Dublin (where U2 formed) is not a part of Great Britain it is a separate country.
Great Britain itself, is England, Wales and Scotland. OKAY, GOT THAT EVERYONE???

So U2 are not from Britain/UK they are from Ireland, an entirely different country, an Irish person would've castrated some people in this thread by now.
You're right, but I think that believing U2 are a good band is far, far more shameful than believing that Ireland is part of the UK.

why have you listed eric clapton in the 90s??
and why is the darkness on there? you even put queen earlier???
Yeah you're probably right about clapton though, don't know what i was on :p i would've put him in the 60's as well when he was with cream, the yardbirds and maybe the 70's with derek and the dominoes.

Queen should be 80's too, but i was thinking of a night at the opera ;)...but the darkness in 00's, i like them, there hasn't been a number 1 album by a new classic hard rock band in the mainstream for ages before them.

Arctic Monkeys are cock lickers.
Hmmmmm Alex Turner is rather arrogant, but their music is awesome nonetheless.
