Elton John's best tracks are prolly "Your Song", "Thats why they call it the blues", "Sacrifice" and the ever famous "Candle In The Wind" ....theirs also a good song of his which appears at the end of the movie "And the band played on"...not sure of the title though.

[Jowe]

Oh I was wrong then
Anyway I would really like to see that performance though I kinda hate Elton John.
Has anyone here seen it?

I've got that video Elton does hte start of of it and axl comes in near the end bit /.

I have the mp3 of it on a dvd somewhere. If u really want it i could upload it.

Brian May is a better gutarist then Slash technique wise, but slash is more creative riff and solo wise. Also is straight up Cool.... who else can say they legally died twice.

[Mazzocchi]

Elton John is pretty good, his music isnt "my music" but i still think he's got some damn good songs out.

[Filip]

I dont like mercury not becuase of his vocals or his composed songs.......the fact i dont like him is his lets say his homosexuality....which ultimately destroyed the band image back then

Again: are you kidding me?! The fact that Freddie was homosexual didn't destroyed the bands images a goddamn thing. And how can you dislike him just because of the fact that he was gay? That got nothing to do with genius musican that he was.

..metallica will kick beatles butt when it comes to metal rock.....so i have to say the WHITE ALBUM is still the rockest(not heavy metal only rock) album ever.

Great, lets compare the Beatles with Metallica, almost the same thing
And how the hell can you headbang to the Beatles btw

Axel Rose performance was quite strange considering that Rose had made clear he hated homosexuals..

You know, I don't think he really hated homosexuals, it was just because of that stupid lyric he wrote in "One in a million"

Immigrants and faggots
They make no sense to me
They come to our country
And think they'll do as they please
Like start some mini Iran,
Or spread some fuckin' disease
They talk so many goddamn ways
It's all Greek to me

He explained himself later on in a interview but I don't remember what he said.

I have the mp3 of it on a dvd somewhere. If u really want it i could upload it.

That would be great if you could do that, thanks

BTW: Elton John ain't a rockmusican if you ask me so why are we discussing him?
He is quite a good singer but his songs are bit too....."flowers, strawberry's and sunshine" to me if you know what I'm saying.

[Jowe]

yeh elton john is pop.

Which is why you can't compare the beatles with metallica...they are from different genres.

damn... 3 pages and still only 1 african-american hottie

this thread has officially been hijacked.

Have you guys heard of Cliff Burton?? Im sure yall must have.

Hes probably the greatest bass guitarist ever, damn I watched a Metallica concert on VCD when Cliff was with them, he plays frikkin lead parts on the bass. Just amazing, jaw dropping stuff. Jason Newsted = Avril Lavigne bassist when compared to him.

[J@3]

If you haven't heard of Cliff you're erm... I don't know, stupid?

[AlwaysWhat,NeverWhy]

Jason Newsted = Avril Lavigne bassist when compared to him.

True.

If you haven't heard of Cliff you're erm... I don't know, stupid?

True as well.

Duff plays lead on bass too. But Cliff burton was great, its too bad that he died in that freak bus accident.

[AlwaysWhat,NeverWhy]

its too bad that he died in that freak bus accident.

Are those stories about him picking the shortest straw, getting to sleep under the glass window, which eventually broke and killed him? Metallica do have a song called "shortst straw" , so it got me thinking...

[FendeR`]

He didn't say "black bitch thread" or "hot female niggas thread". THAT would be racist.

Rofl, that made me crack up for some reason.

this has been a good hijacked isn't it?
anyways i'm sick of bands calling themselves by the name of their band singers...a.k.a avril lavigne, jon bon jovi......to me it is soo egocentric

^^^^ yeah that statment is the bomb

Avril lavigne isn't a band... Shes a solo artist, the 'band' are just session musicians.

Bon Jovi though you might have a point, since richie sambora is a great guitar player ..

[Mazzocchi]

yeah Avril isnt bad because she actually plays her own instruments, writes her own songs, AND sings in her own voice.
But unfortunateally it ends there,
but in my opinion she isnt the worst out there

[Filip]

Talking about Cliff Burton who was with Metallica during the trashmetal days. He might been great as hell and all but the bass was rarely heard anyways during those years, I remember Metallica talking about this themselves (in a documentary) and how the new heavier sound with the "Black Album" record gave much more space for the bass (Dunno how to put it but I hope you get me).

[Mazzocchi]

Gah! doubble posting makes my eyes hurt
Weezer is ok. Not the best but theyre ok
