  1. Ah yes, good catch.

    I should clarify as well...Earth Wind and Fire probably aren't as important of a band as U2, nor do I really think that Metallica or The Bee Gees are. We just tried to encompass as many different soundscapes as possible.

    Michael Jackson was actually brought up quite a bit, until the professor made an interesting observation- there are probably a distinct mass of people on this Earth right now (and even in the 80s) who don't/didn't know who Michael Jackson was then. He was immensely popular in the world we commonly associate with and care about, but there is far more music than there is popularity to support it.
  2. Michael Jackson should have Billie Jean or Thriller in there, maybe some Madonna too. Kraftwerk since they were the first with dance music.

    Good evening by the way and is live topics working for you guys
  3. Technically more than 27 should be there considering many bands represented the earth for music. Many bands started or brought back several types of genres.
  4. Good evening Bart, no they are not.

    Kraftwerk was on my list, and we tried to limit to one per artist...I chose Bad simply because it's my current favorite of the two we had for MJ, the other being Billie Jean

    I just learned the other day that Computer World by Kraftwerk is where Coldplay's "Talk"'s main riff is from.

    I hate when you are in a group doing a quiz or something and most or all of them haven't a clue about music at all. I remember one time doing a music quiz in which we had to write the answers down. The Who came on, so I instantly wrote down the answer. Some girl at my table said "Who are The Who?". Haha. I simply replied "You are having a laugh, right?... possibly one of the biggest rock bands ever?". I was annoyed after that as you would expect.


    Yeah, you gotta hate that. I remember when I was one of the few who knew the intro of SBS when our teacher played it on piano. He was like "You don't know Sunday Bloody Sunday "?
  7. They did something like that, only with artist, a couple of weeks ago on Dutch television show. Lets see if I could find that list.
  8. Here it is:
    Kraftwerk - Michael Jackson - Elvis Presley - The Ramones - David Bowie - Bob Marley - Bob Dylan - Jimi Hendrix - Ray Charles - Chuck Berry - James Brown - Carole King - Led Zeppelin - The Rolling Stones - Prince - Little Richard - The Beatles
  9. Girl in my group called "Baba O'Riley" "Teenage Wasteland"...one of my biggest pet peeves
  10. randomly bouncing in and out, never mind, guys, keep your discussion up.

    just a quick question: didn't we have a topic where people here posted about their holidays? like Sonia shared pictures about Vietnam etc? I can't find it. Tried with key words like "vacation", "holidays", "photos" etc but no success. Any ideas? or has it disappeared?

    *gone again before you know it*
