  6. The award for Best British Group wasn't given to women for 41 years until Little Mix won in 2021. I think the issue is not entirely about Little Mix, but more of an industry-wide problem of not recognizing women.

    I don't think any of his stans over here know who she is.

    Eva Marie Saint

    There was a photo of George Burns smoking a cigar in my elementary school library in the 90s; so that dude was iconic to me as a child due to the bizarreness of it. Like why would this compel a 9 year old in 1994 to read? I think in general people know Kirk Douglas by name and face -- or even just "Michael Douglas's dad", but not Eva Marie Saint or Glynis Johns. A lot of people said "who?" regarding the latter but knew instantly when I said the mom in Mary Poppins. I assume same situation with Gloria Stuart.
  10. The news needs to stop highlighting these people's call to arms. Just let them die in the fringe. He really didn't have that many protestors as anticipated with the mug shot in Atlanta or his other trials.
  11. I don't like her music. It lacks artistry and sounds robotic to me. I've said that several times? But I don't have an issue with people liking her music though; that's subjective and is expressed via voting.
  12. I'll do an overview what I saw in the music industry, and how Britney fit into that:
  13. Right, as a female who has experience in the music industry, I'm daft on this topic.

  15. Yet at the time of the song, she was inviting the paparazzi over to her house to have sex with her and do drugs. There's video of her inviting them over. She was purposefully trying to get pregnant by one of them, Adnan Ghalib, as a way to replace her two children; he was married with children too ofcourse -- that's her type. There's photos of them buying a pregnancy test together at Rite Aid. If you really wanted to do a middle finger to the paparazzi, you wouldn't just move them in with you. No, I don't like her. She was a music industry plant in order to keep other female music artists in line (ie, those who play at Lilith Fair, riotgrrl, female hiphop). Everything about her is fake, and unfortunately influential. She sounded like AI on that Blackout album. Many female artists have complained that the standards now in the studio is to just sing syllables like her so it can be copy/pasted together, rather than just performing music.

    Ideas and possibilities for 2025

    I was one of the babies at Camp Lejeune; Tuberville and Cruz were trying to get us removed from the Pact Act saying we were looking for free handouts. Also said prostate cancer shouldn't be covered in it when it's been known to be caused by Agent Orange. I was glad that Biden held his ground on wanting to sign it with us all included, but I don't know really the effects of the Pact Act yet.

    yikes, I'm a Camp Lejeune victim too. This made me feel sick.
  19. My suggestion is take a vote whether people want them separated or not. I used that example as one song regularly appears on "greatest songs of all time" list and the other is never mentioned, so clearly the two tracks are regularly evaluated separately.
  20. It was, but it was released in the 60s, and there was a debate in that Kill or Save thread whether the songs should be separated out, and a lot of people expressed that it should but we couldn't do it as the round had already started. Edit: Starts here where people are crossing out Rock a Hula Baby when voting, including you saying Can't Help Falling in Love won't get votes due to the absymal track attached:
  21. They weren't played together on the radio though. It's all just the record label trying out new business ideas with the advent of the singles charts. We don't have proof that people wore out both sides of the record of Elvis Presley's "Can't Help Falling in Love" and "Rock a Hula Baby" equally. There are some very rare instances where the B side will win out, but usually it's some vestigial twin to the A side and not deserving to be on the list at all because no one listened to it. (However, not advocating to remove them from the list entirely).
  22. For the 50s, if there are any double songs, can we have them split before the round starts?

    O.J. Simpson: Run Out Of Juice?

    If I Did It was a project funded by Rupert Murdoch; he is known for trying to manipulate the public. The notion that his son did it and not him, or something related to the drug deals going on at Goldman's restaurant for which another coworker was murdered around the same time... okay, I'll entertain those theories. But OJ Simpson's violence isn't to be excused.
