ABBA & Hall & Oats?

By the way, why was John Oats even there? Anyone know what purpose he served? I mean, at least Art Garfunkle sang.

Also love Metallica...even St Anger...love the message 'cuz I can relate, but it's also the rawness i dig. I know they say the new one will be be very different, but whatever I like it all. I'm just easy like that and not a snob.
Then, of course the good 'ol Slayer, Preist, AC/DC, ABBA, 1st 6 VH, Exodus, Testament, Hall & Oates...

No I didn't. I don't even know what they sound like!!

And I love you btw!!!!

Also ABBA are fucking awesome!!! I was very happily singing along to Mammia Mia the other day, that's my favourite ABBA song.

Hall and Oates - one of my faves - Abandoned Luncheonette is a fantastic record! Even though John Oates was born in NY - PA claims 'em as the boys who made good!

But in reply to your question, Acujer - John Oates sang, too! Check their vocal harmonies! It's what put them on the map initially (especially to me- I've always been a freak for the vocal blend) Smooth as silk, those boys were!

I think he also was heavily involved in production as well.... That and the songwriting made him more than just the guy with the mustache next to the hot blonde dude!

"Smooth as silk, those boys were! "

Kind of like Lionel, who's easy as Sunday Morning.

Kind of makes me want to smoke a Kool Menthol on satin sheets.

I remember John Oats playing guitar and not singing though. Maybe I forgot about their harmonies.

The Eagles = best harmonies ever!!! Seven Bridges Road live is to die for!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I always thought that they were lovers back then.. But maybe not.....

The radar may have been malfunctioning..

Not to rain on your parade but I absolutely hate The Eagles with a passion and think Hotel Calfornia sucks balls big time! What a crap band and crap song! I hope I never hear that song or the even worse the acoustic version ever again. Almost as bad as Freebird!

When I lived in Asia fro 3 years, you'd hear Hotel California everywhere. That and Mariah Carey's Titanic Theme. Both bloody shite!

I do love Joe Walsh though.

Ok.

(and it was Celine Dion, not Mariah Carey).

Acujer · May 1st, 2008, 07:08 PM

haha oh yeah. thats funny!

1) I love Haggis! I have celebrated burns (sp) night in Scotland at Turnbury Golf Course..was just fab.

2) Megadeth
3) Swallow the Sun
4) Machine Men

I don't like prog metal either particularly. I'm not a big Rush fan (I think you either love or hate Geddy's voice), and I can't stand a lot of the power metal like Dragonforce and so on.

But, I highly doubt many people love Swallow the Sun like I do...and that's just A-OK

Timewarrior2001 · May 2nd, 2008, 04:55 AM
