How come you like that stuff it really is utter crap .. REM are the reiterative warblings of an ugly bald sod that looks like StugeronSteve with a wig!
Probably need a teenager, but what would SWMBO say?
For some reason, most of my classical stuff is either (a) in the bedroom at home (make of that what you will!) or (b) on the boat. Horses for courses maybe.

I think REM have produced some good stuff over the years although I can see there not everybody's cup of tea and you have to be in the right mood to listen to them.
Keane are a kind of Coldplay without lead guitars, quite clever really.
To be honest I'm more of a faded prog rocker brought up on Genesis, Pink Floyd , Dire Straits etc but also listen to U2, Marillion,Clapton other guitar based rock.
I will concede that the REM's lyrics are little weird and he's definately a chrome dome !

New Greenday album (can't recall title) is good. Son brought it back from Uni, for last weekends boaty frolics. Had a "pop-punk" evening on the Folly pontoon. He also coached us in a bit of "hip hop" dancing, so I've got all the moves for Eminem at mo.

The Greenday is definately a grower. I also can't believe I have and album in common with the esteemed Claymore- how good does that make me feel /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif
