Your most controversial music opinions

American Dream was the best thing released in all of 2017 and that was a pretty solid year. 

Love it to bits. In fact, I consider this and SoS to be LCD's best work.

On the other hand I can't stand This Is Happening. Pretty weak record. 

[Ayrshire Chris]

I quite like Blackmores Night.

Homogenic is better than Vespertine.

Possibly Maybe

Homogenic is better than Debut and Post.

Largely agree - though Pete Burns wants a word (fun fact: that song is actually quite rude; as in why would he want to spin some right round (baby, right round, like a record baby, right round, round, round) 180 degrees so they had their back to him?).

See also Spinning Around by Kylie.

Enjoying Hot Chocolate's greatest hits this morning. Errol's got some swagger and some pipes.

...

Only just clocked that No Doubt About It is about Errol encountering alien life.

I'm a hip hop fan but I don't get the fuss about Biggie, average rapper at best.

Yeah, but you spin a record 360 degrees, not 180, and 45 times a minute at that. Not sure what Pete has in mind... Probably for the best.

Ringo was actually a fairly decent drummer, did some interesting things.

As much as I like to knock him the drumming on A Day In The Life is very complex and adds loads to the song... his singing on the other hand can never be defended.

Don't get me wrong, some of his tom fills were pretty horrible. 

Agreed on his singing - some lines in Act Naturally are genuinely painful.

He could narrate kids' tv like a boss though

Yoko's set in 2014 from view of my sofa was actually really entertaining and the people who still take the piss out of her are a bit tiring now.

I was there and to this day I still haven't got a fucking clue what was going on.

Genuinely when I was a kid watching Thomas the Tank Engine I loved his voice and had no idea there was a whole city of people that spoke like that. I suppose I must have been of an age when the BBC were just starting to allow people with a regoinal accent on TV.

Weird to think how much that's changed.

Not least cos it's typically rooted in misogyny and xenophobia.

My views are rooted in neither. I went in there expecting it to be utterly barking and it didn’t disappoint.

If you’re presented with the opportunity to see Yoko at least once then why wouldn’t you?

Still beat watching Ed Sheeran.

Seen the Horrors more times than I can count. How often does the chance to see something genuinely unique along?

Admittedly it wasn’t for me but I’m glad I at least tried it.
