The Cranberries are a Top50 band in History

[two sheds]

I haven't been rude to you, only your band. As we've discussed. It's not the same thing. You are free to slate my beloved New Order. I can handle it.

They're a bit derivative

I do not care about other people's tastes, I am not a person who suffers when others enjoy bands that they hate

Expect a thread on this!

Don't actually know them, a bit after my time

How did you find the forum? Did it come up on a Google search?

Don't change the subject, this tactic is very old

Didn't Rory Gallagher write a fairly noncey song? Seem to recall that colouring his legacy.

 

[klang]

That is your opinion, as valid as mine. And mine is that Dolores has been a better vocalist better than Rory Gallagher as a guitarist, even though Gallagher is possibly a Top 50 of guitarists.

who are the other 49?

All artists have done bad and silly things, The Cranberries have Copycat which is a bad song and I Just Shot John Lennon which the song is good but the lyrics are very bad.

It is impossible to write and produce more than 100 songs and none of them is bad

No, but you seem to get angry at people not enjoying a band you love

 

[Crannadict]

Make your particular list

Easy to avoid noncery if you're not, though.

Are you seriously accusing Rory Gallagher of being a nonce???

Make your particular list

me? why?

 

[Crannadict]

No. I get angry at people who don't respect the legacy of the band. And usually this kind of people never listened a more than 5 songs of the band

but to make most of them boring is quite a task too.

LedZep, Queen PF, DP, BS or The Who made awful songs once in their life

 

[klang]

also, writing 100 songs really isn't that many.

What songs from The Cranberries do you think are boring?
PD: To consider something boring it is necessary to have heard it before

In fairness, Dolores singing live sounds like she's having a drunken argument with a cheese grater.

Because I am not your serf

Lists and ratings are fun, but really it's a matter of finding something you love in something regardless of its flaws. If you're interested in halls of fame and popularity and greatest this or that you or the top fifty of the other you are missing the point. This is not even a point about subjectivity, you can talk about what you like in something quite objectively. Ultimately it's always your relationship to the music that counts (and maybe it's wider social or collective relation). And with all this talk about the Cranberries being one of the greatest (or not as the case may be) I'm not hearing anything to make me want to go back and listen to them again after all these years.

 

[Favelado]

A terrible band-name as well. We've just got used to it over the years.

If you change the berry it gives you a sense of how bad it is when not so accustomed.

The Gooseberries. The Raspberries. The Loganberries. The Elderberries.

I never claimed there were 50 best guitarists and whatshisface was one of them.

You're very wrong

Not even when she is dead you are not able to respect her, your life must be very fun.

the album and song titles are on the weak side too.

I'm sorry she's dead but I didn't kill her, and she was shit live.
