Agreed Sinatra is classic! Morrissey was the lead singer of The Smiths. Great band


So many people don't know Sinatra-it's SHOCKING.

The Smiths, I can't figure out who they are right now, BUT I am dead sure I have heard of them (like literally their music) :smile:

Well, I am sorry but you are trying to slate me for my music when yours is ideal for
1) - A 7-year-old
2) - Someone with an extra chromosome.

I also observed that you have attempted to call people "Sweetie" however that miserably failed and misspelt it leading to you calling the "sweaty" but at least you tried. So before you carry on with your egotistical high horse at least take into consideration you are slightly dumb if you cannot spell "Sweetie" and the fact that your music is ideal for a year 5.

I was going to support NTLTC, Chun-Li and Lust For Life wherever they performed, it's just a good thing to add that they are successful and their figures show it. And you cannot argue with a song going to #1 in 80+ countries.


Sure you can, lots of terrible songs have had mainstream success.

If an artist has 0 number 1s (in the time where there was number 1s) and no notable albums, they're flops.

Notable as in?

How do you decide whether you like a song?

The music.

I highly doubt 7 year olds listen to Nicki Minaj but go off

Also care to elaborate what the "extra chromosome" comment means, please :smile:

It's a Twitter slang term, it's not a genuine spelling and is used as a sarcastic insult-it's not that deep.

I don't think a terrible song would go to number 1 in 80 plus countries and being terrible is subjective, but the charts don't lie.

Notable as in, Grammy nominated, MTV EMA/VMA nominated, BBH200 charting-something along those lines.

And I listen to the music, which is why I like the artists

The extra chromosome was hyperbole. The way some people act they probably have listened to crap like that when they were younger and for the "sweaty" I do not use twitter so I would not know.

You are basing your entire argument about whether something is good or not on chart success.

I came at you simply because you decided to be petty about my choice of music. And I do not get what you want me to say.

You call these facts when you went on a few charts and said someone is good because of them. Your argument as well for Kanye not being as good as Ariana it was again was "Also, Kanye's top grossing tour is $40million, whilst Ariana is sitting comfortably at $71million...so..... ".

Well if money actually meant something in term of talent and ability to make good music I would listen but this just staples the fact you are a narcissist who is full of denial.

Also, you seem to define talent as being high up in the charts which is also bs. If that was the case you would have juxtaposed yourself since we can infer that you do not like xxx whatever his name is. I am not a fan of him but if your "facts" were true then, in that case, xxx would be good as well since he hit number one on some charts with his new album.
