lol - I don't watch it ...I remember reading Cowell saying something about an Xfactor auditionee smile - that it needed to be fixed and teeth whitened
What about bands though? Where would the Beatles measure up? They wouldn't be as 'big' as one direction because little girls will always be little girls, but what about the likes of Cold Play, Oasis, Muse, Arctic Monkeys, Kasabian, Kaiser Chiefs, Greenday, Linkin Park... I don't know many tbh, would they compete?
It's all opinions innit, I think they'd bomb with their existing music catalogue but they could write something totally different in this era and wipe the floor with the rest, we'll never know.
Well my tastes stretch from classical music to punk rock, so I don't think that I fall into this category..
Saw him in go-go,s in the 6o,s just as he charted for the first and only time if I remeber correctly, he was great with a singer called Paul Williamson, who was top notch but sank without trace as far as I know, Big Time Operator was old Zoot.
Mmm, Janis. The Wild Child. Funnily enough, somebody's just posted a thead on Neil Young who started out in the same band as Jainis Joplin and Steven Stills. Buffalo Springfield, I think they were called. No surprise that she flattened Jim Morrison - he wasn't in her league for sure, at anything..
Janis Joplin started out with Big Brother and the Holding Co., another band in the same grove as The Buffers / Crosby Stills et all but no cross overs as I believe, a great documentary on TV last year about the former group and its relationship to Janis was very detailed and worth a watch if you are interested in that era Rel., the widely held belief of some of the members of the band was that Janis bless her wrecked the group and I concure with this opinion. Cool.
Thats right, Big Brother & the Holding Company, not Buffalo Springfield as I said. I didn't see the documentary, but I believe Janis was so loose in her habits she'd have split any form of organization up!
