What about Franz Ferdinand or Darius?

 

[Kehaar]

Darius?

Arrrgh, the shame!!! I don't know whether to laugh or cry!

What about Franz Ferdinand or Darius?

Srange, but Snow Patrol are from Northern Ireland are were 14th, Franz were 15th.

Darius isn't in a band, although he probably should be banned! LOL!! Oh I kill myself sometimes.....

im shocked and appalled the vaselines or eugenius dint get a mention, eugene kelly is still going strong as a solo artist

 

[theFijian]

The full list of 50 is here. The Vaselines where at #35. Eugenius was a bit of a silly name, maybe that's why they weren't even in the 50.

It confused my work mates too. I gave up trying to explain who Belle and Sebastian were...I could see I was loosing the battle anyway.

 

[Buttermilk]

Who are they?

 

[Kilted Stranger]

before my time i think...

 

[dellla]

Who are they?

belle and sebastian are a fantastic Glasgow band, they won the best newcomer award at the Brits in '98 (I think). Check out their album "The Boy With The Arab Strap" and you will never get their tunes out of your head (which is not a bad thing). Not sure what they're up to now.

 

[Kilted Stranger]

oops... not before my time after all...
