Up- R.E.M. an overlooked masterpiece. Sadly Mike Mills does not agree. I met Mike at an undisclosed location and with beer in hand proclaimed UP to be a masterpiece. He started laughing and said "thanks, but it is not a masterpiece." Yes well. I still think so.

In my history of being online and also including reading comments in various forms of print media, this is the most outrageous, absurd, and ludicrous comment I have ever come across! There is not much more I can...
Re: Foreigner ~ Double Vision (1978)
Some of the songs may be sappy as you say, but they had an edge to them. Foreigner 4 truly started the band's transition into sappy territory.
The negative reaction to disco was racially and homophobically motivated.
REM, U2, The Police, The Violent Femmes, Husker DU, The Replacements, and others were all signifigant contributors to a great decade!
They have a song out that applies to our economic situation. It is one of the most prophetic songs ever made. Blew me away when I heard it months ago, and I put it in my I-pod.
It certainly was not the worst, but definitely nothing special. At liked it when I was before I knew any better. Years later I heard the Only Time Will Tell song and had a moment of clarity.
Re: Best one hit wonders of the 90's
Another one has come to mind. This song was from the early 90's. Life Is a Highway by a singer with the last name of Cochran.
I do not come here often anymore. I decided to visit today and saw a negative message from him as well as somebody named Randy. What a bunch of jabronies!
Re: Best one hit wonders of the 90's
I agree about the New Radicals. Also what about the Standing In The phonebooth song which sampled an old blues singer?
The new Joseph Arthur- Nuclear Daydream is a masterpiece. As a matter of fact it is the best album released in the past 30 years. Joseph Arthur is a genius! Joseph Arthur is a messiah! Buy the album today!
