It changed title about 20 times, but I can't exactly remember how it got from My Favourite Songs (right, PB?) to JBIJJ. Hattie Jacques was involved somewhere at one point, and it was even called The Music Thread (very Ronseal) for a while. Anyway, I'm not particularly trying to bump it, I was just looking for somewhere to complain about Capaldi and Sheeran. Room 101, probably. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TQR 14,408 Posted February 19, 2021 Had no idea this (excellent) thread existed. The three wildly different tunes I’m enjoying most at the moment (all of which just came up randomly on my >3,000-strong shuffle playlist and made me think “fuck me, I forgot how good this is): Beck - Dear Life Radiohead - Exit Music (for a film) Fatman Scoop - Be Faithful Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think (one of) the name changes occurred when Notapotato done something to.it. Can't for the life of me remember what it was though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But mostly, by the end, it was just me whingeing about the Mercury Prize each year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clorox Bleachman 2,455 Posted February 19, 2021 MGMT - It's Working SZA - Good Days blink-182 - Stockholm Syndrome It's funny/unfortunate that listening to 2k chart songs from 1952-63 hasn't changed my comfort zone, which is music from 1993 and up. If anything it makes me want to move as far as possible away from yodelling, and funereal backing singers, and 5 covers of the same song, and godawful arms/charms or you/true/blue/through couplets. Maybe my opinion will change when hippies take over the chart. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boudicca 702 Posted February 19, 2021 Absolutely no idea this thread existed so I just assumed it was started after 2007 when the entire forum was wall to wall utter wankers and I completely stopped even reading it. Oh. Look. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,689 Posted June 17 This thread has a chequered history. I remember it mainly for me complaining about the Mercury Prize each year. Jaques Brel was never nominated, mainly on the spurious account of being Belgian and dead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
