Actually, I think that a thread that never gets old would make a much better housewife, but Rlacey would work too, after I make some modifications to him.

Really?

In which musical genre would you place their work, then?

< offers Giligan some resin powder to help him maintain a firm grip on reality.

Don't want you dropping it. Could make a terrible mess.

I think that particular milk may already have been spilled.

I've always considered rock music to require a bit more oomph than the Beatles songs so I'd have to go with Pop if anything.

Hmmm...

I sometimes forget that "Pop" as a musical genre doesn't have the same negative connotations in the UK as it does in the US. Here "Pop" would generally refer to the most puerile of music, the kind recorded by artists who neither write their own songs nor play any musical instruments. The music of most so-called "Boy Bands" would fall into this category here.

They're a pop band. They may have experimented with different sounds and styles, but very little comes close to being describable as "rock" music.

I don't know if "pop" has the same kind of negative connotations over here. I don't think it does; I think that some pop singers are looked down upon. The Beatles and Brittney Spears are hardly comparable, for instance, but the Beatles also clearly aren't Queen.

Beatles aren't Led Zeppelin either.
They're definitely not Slayer.

The Beatles are crap, that's what they are. Horrid stuff.

Sorry, but you disqualified yourself from any discussion regarding music just now.

Ooh, speaking of the Beatles, I heard their new album, [url=http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000JK8OYU//ref=nosim/adventuregame-20[/url] in it's entirety the other day. It was fabulous. The songs that you've heard many a time really given a new life.

Okay, go back to making fun of Giligan.
