The Beatles vs Jesus

Just cheked out the 'Something for the weekend' link to this on google and had the overwhelming urge to try 'Paris Hilton vs Jesus' (I don't even know why so don't ask.

Suffice to say, the result is quite depressing.

Of course, you'd need to give it another two thousand years for it to be a fair contest

Anyone come up with any other interesting comparisons?

A fly in the ointment

Amidst much deserved revelry and congratulations to Word magazine being recognized for being the best at what they do (which we already knew) I felt it was my duty to put a fly in ointment in the full knowledge that we're all adults here and that Sir Hepworth can take it on the chin

So, when did they get it wrong?

For me there were two tracks that slipped onto Word cd's that I thought were, well, woeful. And yes, I know it's all a matter of taste blah de blah but really,

The Pierces - Boring (no, that was the name of the song, which was a bit ironic but not in an Alanis Morrisette way)
and
Someone whose name I've thankfully forgotten with some utter trash about liking 'Big Trucks'.

Come on, get on with the gripes people. It's constructive criticism!! So they can win again next year :)

The Beatles. Brilliant or Boring?

I'm afraid that I fall on the boring side of the fence. I've tried (and tried) to get the Beatles bug and have failed miserably.

I'm opening the floor to being convinced...

Have at you.

A little help...

Ok, there's no denying it, Christmas is nearly upon us.

I was sitting, scratching my head, wondering what I would get for my 10 year old God-daughter when I though - hmm, how about some classic albums because, hey, if I don't know music then I don't know anything.

It appears that I don't know anything because I've been scratching my head wondering what 'classic albums' would be appropriate to get her. The worrying thing is that the one that keeps coming back to me is Thriller (Michael Jackson, not Lambchop unfortunately).

So, any suggestions from the parish?
