Eh: 4/10.

2/10 I tend to agree with you - he has a talent for writing irritating love songs. Just the Way You Are must be the most patronising and insulting compliment a woman has ever been offered. "Hey - you're stupid, predictable and unadventurous, but I'm lazy and pretty dumb myself so - you know - your complete lack of attractiveness is okay by me."

And while we're talking of nauseating songs... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejxFeS47OZ8

Now, who can resist a line like that?

Have to admit that there was a period in my life I liked this song but at the moment it makes me roll my eyes: 2/10

(And I hardly ever wear red so...)

Oh dear. Maybe it's so over-the-top that it's slightly good, but I could not take myself seriously while listening to that. 1.75/10

Here's true awfulness: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7AFZXgjrgg

Ha, usually I'm quick to defend crap music, but not this 0/10

I always wonder what people think when they do these videos. What was this guy thinking? Though I must say, that groan around the middle was pretty creepy lol. This is crap with class, or maybe it's just nostalgia. 4/10

I have to say, this is a modern example of crap with class. I am constantly left in total puzzlement as to what exactly R. Kelly was intending by this.

You know the Trapped in The Closet thing would be a lot more tolerable if they actually changed the music between parts. And really, who would hide behind the refrigerator, and I love his voice for the girlfriend lol. 5/10

I'm sure you remember this grade-A garbage from msn lol

EDIT: This was for Pip's song, I'm listening to yours papaya: Yeah this is just nauseating, not even good enough to make fun of (like South Park parodying R. Kelly; "And I pull out my GUUNNNN!" lol) 0/10

@papaya: Nah, ironically, not my thing at all. 3/10

I'm not crazy over the music, but when I was 13-14 I was religiously addicted to QaF and I've seen every episode. 5/10

Well now you beat me to ranking Pap's. I like this song, kind of mellow 7/10.

And, just because Papaya reminded me of QaF.

See, that kind of music reminds me of too-late nights at clubs I'd rather not have gone to in the first place, where you can't talk to anyone over the bass and the drinks are thirst-causing, and you know that you're not going to get laid and you're not sure you'd want to even if you could. I hear music like this and my Pavlovian response is 'Taxi!' 2/10


As we're in a Bowie phase - one of those you've-never-looked-better moments.

[OrphanPip]

9/10 of course, for the longest time Bowie seems not to have aged, but the 2005 stuff from Fashion Rocks makes him look a little drained of energy.

That was superb. 9.5 out of 10.

Bowie reminded me of Iggy - I wonder if he was considering his car insurance at this time?
