| What's with "The Darkness?" |
|
I just heard "I Believe in a Thing Called Love" and I'm wondering: does the singer know he sounds like the bastard son of Gary Glitter and Tiny Tim?

| 1. Ironic Drama School Graduates who think it's funny to be Def Leppard. |

| 3. Yeah, but are they serious? |
|
They don't sound at all like Leppard to me... more of a 70's influence, but the vocals are absurd!
I hated the Offspring until I realized that they didn't take themselves seriously, then I was able to laugh along with them.
The Dorkness... I just don't know what to make of them.

I don't think they take themselves too seriously.

| 13. I suppose they sound more Guns and Roses or Glammy. |
|
It's the clothes, I always think of the mighty Lep when I see them.

| 6. Actually, I don't mind the song so much... |
|
I love that 70's arena rock stuff... but the singer... with that Julia Childs falsetto... I find it disturbing.

| 8. I loved glam rock ... and I like his voice |
|
Reminds me of Freddie. Okay, more over the top, but hey, I'm desperate for falsetto. :)

| 9. I'd say he wants to be Freddie Mercury. |
|
But he doesn't come close. Freddie had a voice!

| 10. I've been jonesing for his voice for so long |
|
Forgive me for taking pleasure in a rather poor imitation. I can't help myself!
Plus he's so funny, squirming around in those frilly clothes!

| 11. Apparently they are serious about what they do musically |
|
but also have a sense of humor. Read a recent article where they noted this. I think they are a hoot.

| 12. I enjoy the song "Get Your Hands Off My Woman" |
|
The chorus is:
"GET YOUR HANDS OFFA MAH WOOMAN MOTHERFUUUUUCKER!"
:D
I enjoy them, because I think irony is fun.
