Last night Bowie was a nominee for the great British Icons programme. What a talent/ performer. Sure someone on here said he was overrated ? Still can't believe anybody dislikes Bowie, a bloody genius.

Really? There's some amount of shite posted on this forum but that's right up there with the best of it.

Definitely on here, I told some music fans in the pub. One spat out his beer ! If a wind up it had it's effect as nobody can honestly say Bowie was overrated. That's like saying George Best was average, or Messi is okay I guess !

Robbie Williams and the Spice Girls are overrated, anybody disagree ?

Bell Green charity shop yesterday, CDs 49pence each.
Poor selection though, but got Radiohead's Pablo Honey album.I sometimes like them,and other times don't, but as the track Creep is on it which is awesome in my opinion, I'll give it a listen.

I love Radiohead and Creep is one of my favourite tracks. I also found Creep by a brilliant girl choir called Scala. I love it because you get to hear a whole load of beautiful, angelic female singers singing the words, "You're so fucking special"! with no embarrassment at all. Have a listen.....

Never liked the Spice Girls but one or two Robbie Williams tracks have been ok, namely "Me & My Monkey" from the Escapology album (which I bought!") I also like him doing 'swing', which is one of my favourite types of music!

A mate of mine bought him and his son tickets for the concert in June to see Skynyrd and Status Quo in Brum. Front row £120.00 but his son doesn't want to go. So I'm going in his place, and my mate said just pay what you can afford, so I'm hoping Forty quid is okay !
Should be a good night, even though both bands aren't the original.

Just going through my hundreds of albums and thought I'd stick something on that I haven't heard for years. Scrolling through, I came across all my Beatles albums (I have every one!) and settled for one of my favourites - Abbey Road. Got it playing through my cans at the moment while 'er indoors watches some crap on TV!

I will get around to listening to your choices Gazolba. They look like my era! (Just want to finish listening to Abbey Rd!)

No rush. I heard them all in a McDonalds the other day and my daughter used her song recognition app to detect what songs they were.
I have to learn how to use that app, it's very useful.

When you find out how to use it, let us know! Sounds like something I could use! Oh, and what is the app called?

I just downloaded the app myself with my daughter's help.
The app is called SoundHound, it's the one with an orange circle with a black squiggle in the centre.
You just open the app, tap the orange circle and hold the phone up to the music.
The microphone needs to be turned on.
Then it displays the song title and artist and sometimes a photo of the artist and even the lyrics.
I just tested it with a few fairly obscure songs, and it recognised them all.

Missus has got some Ghost Whisperer rubbish on the telly, so I've stuck my collection of Northern Soul tracks on through my cans. Fabulous! 4 discs with 25 tracks on each disc! Heaven!

Off thread a bit. Just read online that The Darkness are supporting Ed Sheeran in summer concerts. That is a strange mixture !
