Music

@Jett129 - incredible. i saw them on a festival in 2007 and then in 2013, and it was crazy good. i can only imagine what it looked like in the 70s.
additionaly i just need to add that luckily there is still a lot of people i truly admire, that still make music (nick cave, thurston moore, pj harvey, ian mckaye....dozens). but my heroes are the ones that made me crazy about all different kinds of music like iggy, lou reed, ozzy, mark e smith, shane, miles..
music is everyday part of my life like food, family, work. cant be thankful enough for all the joy it brings me. -
Iggy at 69 - Royal Albert Hall 2016
He staged dived four times. Baddest muthafucker of all time.

@Jett129 wow!
-
@mclaincausey Filthy once said to me…I wish I could go inside your head and see all the shows you saw.
-
Perhaps inspired by the Oasis reunion
-
Good to know @Jett129 - I am looking forward to it.
PS I rather enjoy my bubble being burst

@Bridger a shocking lack of Beach Boys. And here I thought you lot were civilized
-
@mclaincausey Westlife and Ed Sheeran have 14 each, that's worse than the Beach Boys not making the list. Not to mention Aqua, Steps and McFly... I didn't even know Aqua had more than one song
-
No AC/DC, Zeppelin, Hendrix, James Brown or Bowie, but thankfully Nickelback are representing
-
-
@Bridger I google it and The Kinks,apparently, did have 3 number ones in the UK...You Really Got Me,Tired of Waiting,and Sunny Afternoon. Also looked up SLADE,and they had 6 number 1 hits in the UK. Sorry,I keep thinking of bands that should've been included on the list. T-Rex had 4
-
Good checking @Jett129
Who knows the true record?
I got this from Gemini, which said it got the results from the Official Charts Company (whatever that is).
