Everyone does, Stella. Whether they realise it or not.

The Verve are one of the few who can push Oasis in the overrated stakes.

I'm not their biggest fan, but do like that particular song.

A few of these are a bit dubious. Could you really count Bitter & Sweet as a food or drink?

Went for The Jam, Thin Lizzy and Don Mclean. If I voted again tomorrow I'd be just as likely to vote for three different nominations (except for Don Mclean and The Jam). You can never tell with me.

Stolen largely from the Rolling Stones I believe

Yep, I think it was. Great video, btw!

It was/is indeed Stella to be fair...

A pint of.....

Bitter

Would you like a....

Sweet

May not be one solitary item of food/drink together, but fine to me.

Yes I did vote for it. Yes they were over rated but they pulled out a few absolute belters, this being one of them (despite the heritage of some of the music being Jagger/Richards).

I'd be joint top if I had voted for myself.

Was thinking Strawberry Fields might have popped up?

Lilac Wine anyone

Didnt think of it like that, but there are another couple that are a bit sketchy.

wings of a dove? people eat dove??

Dove.
Doves.
Double Doves.

Classic names for ecstasy in the late '90s C&R.

Got to give the poster credit for thinking outside the box.

It would appear so: http://honest-food.net/wild-game/dove-pigeon-recipes/

You could also argue that "wings" are a food type. I recommend Hooters. Not for the wings, just generally.

I hope it is taken into consideration that I'm the only one who properly went with 'Fish and Chips'

Grumpy get. Quality band. History one of the all time great tracks.

Trebs wrote:I hope it is taken into consideration that I'm the only one who properly went with 'Fish and Chips'

I went with both a band and song that contain foods. As such I get double points for this round. What is the double of zero?

Adam D wrote:You could also argue that "wings" are a food type. I recommend Hooters. Not for the wings, just generally.

Surely the breasts are the best thing about hooters.  That and the women with massive Gert Stonkers.

I went with a song title that could have actually appeared in the last round.

Red Hot Chilli Peppers the most overrated band in history.

Hero wrote:I went with a song title that could have actually appeared in the last round.

Pearl Jam a great band.

Always used to think the song went 'Jeremy smoked in, class today'.

Isnt Bittersweet one word? And wouldnt that then negate the 'pint of bitter' 'have a sweet' argument?

In HISTORY? ???? Sure I can think of more worthy recipients of that particular accolade

You tell him SerialDave.  U2 are the most overrated band in history followed by Nirvana.

If you had of said Pearl Jam i'd agree with you there Galted, a bandwagon jumping pile of horse sh1t; Nirvana however like the Sex Pistols are socially important and it is upon that which they are regarded not necessarily the music which is basic in the extreme.

Cheers, harrier, I will amend my opinion accordingly.

Honey, Grapevine, Malice.

My opinion of you is lowered, Galted. Nirvana were fantastic.

U2 are massively overrated, but they're no Metallica. Everything they've ever done sounds like sh*t.

If you don't like Master of Puppets you're dead inside.

One of the worst songs i've ever heard. Music for cretins is Metallica.

Should be right up your street then Dolph.

Thankfully, I have taste.

Debateable.

End of passion play, crumbling away
I’m your source of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
Leading on your death’s construction
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You’re dedicated to
How I’m killing you

It tugs on the heart strings, it really does.

Yet you think Nirvana are fantastic.

Sure I can Poopie anywhere,
and I promise you here I will Poopie on this stage and I'll,
crawl in it, sound in it, falling down and I...
I choose to Poopie anywhere,
and I promise to Poopie on your head if you want,
I have a God and a father to flounder and follow my life anywhere
and always I will do what I need.
God I'm Poopie,
I'll Poopie anywhere,
and now I choose to Poopie on your face and I'm, right
and God, oh God, oh wife
why the hell am I not safe.
I'm new wave, I'm new wave, I'm new wave.
I'm new wave, I'm new wave, I'm new wave,
I'm old school, I'm old school,
I'm new wave, I'm a threat,
I'm a wave, I'm away,
I am wave and I Poopie anywhere that I please.

So deep and thought provoking.

I never said not liking the song would be akin to being dead inside though, Samo! Although I'm not sure New Wave compares in Nirvana's discography to Master of the Puppets either! But you're right, its not fair to label people stupid for liking music, its taste after all. I mean, we're not talking about Adele here or anything!

Hammersmith harrier wrote:Yet you think Nirvana are fantastic.

Nothing I say is directed at you. Get your legal team to check.

Ironically the only Adele song I would go out my way to listen to is Skyfall, and she didnt even write it! The rest of her stuff is either passable or whiney cowpat. I think if you're only inspiration for music is getting dumped and you 'take a sabbatical' when you get married marks you as not a very good song writer.

Now this is a song.  F*cking annoyed I didn't think to use it for this round instead of the crap one I did nominate.

A song about drug addiction that c* nt Cobain would have done well to pay attention to instead of being an over rated c*nt. Course Bono is still king of the over rated c*nts....

Course you don't like it Serial, if it's not about brutal death then it's for children

Dragging on this competition. Bring back Tina I say. His may have taken a while but at least we got hilarious summaries of the previous round's scores and results with each new round.

Thanks Jeff.

That's warmed my heart.

People were quick to snipe, but the Culture Cup was f*cking rapid compared to this.

And funnier.
