Hi all,

What are your favourite and worst bands or solo UK singers? I like Wet wet wet, Texas, Shakin Stevens (I'm ashamed to admit), Bros, and some others, too many to list, lol. Least favourite has got to be Chas and Dave

I adored Duran Duran as a young girl. Not ashamed to admit that I still love 'em today!

[Fandango 1,439]

omG too many to list really...alltime tho would be Depeche Mode and Oasis.

Worst: Genesis/Phil Collins, Sting, James Blunt (never before has a singers facial expression alone while performing has made me want to punch him), Wet Wet Wet (sorry OP!).

Best: Almost too many to count.

Too many to count, but # 1 is, of course, Pink Floyd.

How can you not like Wet Wet Wet? Lol. I agree Simply Red was an annoying group. I forgot to mention Adam and the Ants, remember them? Edited April 11, 2007 by Pauline123

I was quite the big Duran Duran fan back in the day!

What female of a certain age was not a Duranie? (I'm sure they will all come out of the woodwork) I was once on the same flight as Simon LeBon and Nick Rhodes (who are looking a bit old - also, Nick Rhodes is a dwarf). I can report that they cut to the front of the line at check-in.

[Saddle Bronc 124]

Best: Flanders & Swann (known for "Gasman Cometh" aka "working man song")!

WHEW glad its not just me! Cutting at the front of the line, now that sucks! Surely they weren't getting mobbed!

Age hasn't been kind to them, tis true. But I still loved em back in the day!

you know, they were being outright ignored -- which may have been why they cut in line, to get some attention.

John Taylor was the one for me. I hated it when he married Amanda De Cadenet though, I mean how DARE she?

He hasn't aged too badly. Not bad considering he was the druggie of the group. Naughty boy!
