A Interview

[Colin Zeal EFM]

I've got the first 13 Now compilations all on vinyl, and 14-20 on CD!!

 

The early Now CD's (Now 8 - Now 17) all sell for about £30-£50 each on Ebay!!

So do I. something wrong with that?

[Claire!]

Not at all, they're all quality artists!!!

[MK James]

Although having said that you may just catch me humming a Justin tune sometime...

I have to say I quite like the NME! I know they tend to contradict themselves and go for the build 'em up and knock 'em down method but I usually have strong opinions on a band myself so I don't let it sway me and then it doesn't bother me. Don't worry, when I'm editor, I'll make it a lot better! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Also, the NME always slag off Toploader which make them okay by me!I like Q as well, but my two favourite mags are now defunct: Select and Melody Maker.

 

Coldplay are okay, I think a lot of people slag them off because off their commercial success and not on the basis off their music. It seems to me that whenever a fairly 'underground' band hit's commercial success, orignal fans turn against them, for evidence see Oasis, Travis, Stereophonics, the Strokes etcetc.

 

I have to say that as far as pop goes, I think Justin Timberlake and Blue (not Robbie, he's a twat) do a pretty good job of it. I bet those of us who slag these people off (myself included) secretly like the songs but because they have a certain image, or that genre of music has certain connotations we don't admit to it. And don't bang on about that argument that they're 'so manufactured' becasue isn't every band manufactured in some way or another???

I'm not a big fan of today's pop music. Most of it is pretty rubbish although some of the Sugababes' stuff is not bad. I prefer Duran Duran or A Ha if I want to listen to pop music.

 

Coldplay are a band I'll never get into. Some of their songs are Ok but they're just too dull. They would really need to do a really rocking tune for me to change my mind.

[Matt H]

Ok YA now you are proving you're a Bond fan!!

 

Let me guess...

 

Duran Duran - A View To A Kill & A-ha for The Living Daylights?!

 

You're not the only one!!!

[YELLOW]

Yeah definitely right Matt! Both great songs!

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

I listened to Now 12 the other day on my way to Nottingham.

 

Chris Martin is a knobhead student

Liam Gallagher is just a knobhead.

 

I agree with Steve P's comments about Coldplay, Oasis and Markyate's Bango.

I find Radiohead a bit grating sometimes, although I do like them!

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Sugababes - quality

Duran Duran - ace (singles collection out on Monday folks!)

Oasis - ace

A-ha - very good

Chris Martin - knobhead

Timberlake - dire

Radiohead - very good

Select - quality

Blue - dire

Robbie - ok

 

 

[Chubbhead EFM]

This is not directed at anyone on here, but further to my comments about pop, I find that most men who slag of male pop stars are generally jealous of their amazing success with the laydeez! Just the same as most girls who slag off female pop starts are jealous of their success with the fellas!

[Colin Zeal EFM]

Believe me, that ain't the case with me!!

 

I'm more jealous of Liam Gallagher, Damon Albarn and Paul McCartney and I love all them!!

 

 

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

I hate Nickleback and you can't tell me the lead singer has sucess with the laydeez!

[Chubbhead EFM]

I bet he does!
