The problem with 'greatest' lists |
|
is they really mean either "most popular" or "greatest of a relatively small selection that almost everyone knows."
Truth be told, the "greatest" of anything could well be floundering in obscurity.

3. An added thought: Not that I would. I like what I like and don't let |
|
the opinions of others influence that, other than introducing me to new things.

I have a friend who's forgotten more music than I'll ever hear. He's always turning me on to obscure bands that just cream, and I thank him for it.
Fuckers who think you're arrogant or elitist or something have their heads crammed into Clear Channel.

13. K&R for that hard-hitting outing of Monica Lewinsky/Rove. |
