You heard this? Bill Burr is the man.



"And you see Chuck Berry's eyes and it's that f**kin look… you're just waiting for that f**kin' lightning bolt to hit your friend in the head when he finally realises he's dating a psycho c***. Chuck Berry had that look. He's thinking John, that's your woman. Get her in line."

Bogus on both counts, IMO

a) No such thing as "rapey". A shit word which is thankfully no longer as fashionable as it was a few years ago. Feminists were just getting on their high horse and using the most played track of the year to push their agenda. Sexist and patriarchal? Maybe. Condoning rape? o_O I think not… People trivialised rape by describing "Blurred Lines" as rapey.

b) Thicke & Pharrell lost the copyright case, but they've appealed the verdict and hopefully they win. I think they were dudded. Their song is not the same as the Marvin Gaye track they emulated. The melody, words & hook are nothing alike. You can't copyright a sound, a groove or a style. Where would the music industry be if people successfully sued each other for copying sounds or style? Pfft…
I thoroughly agree with both points.

In last (23rd), and being a never headed billy magnet, we have Melter, with a nomination that was less 'controversial' and more 'tidbit of interesting trivia'
The Angels - Am I Ever Gonna See You Face Again
5 votes, 6 billys

In second last (22nd), being clearly the least preferred of the Cure tracks, is the fly with Friday I'm In Love
6 vote, 1 billy
(Your original woulda done better I reckon, I was giving it bote)

In equal 20th with 7 votes, Sozabarus with Brother Louie by Hot Chocolate (1 billy) and Elton Johns Wig who nom'd Wake Up Little Susie by The Everly Brothers.

In equal 18th with 8 votes, we have your gracious, patient, and insight host me, who also accured 2 billys from the easily offended with Guns N' Roses - One In A Million, and GreyCrow who couldn't even make the sympathy card work for him with Chuck Berry - My Ding-A-Ling

A three-way for 15th with 12 votes:
Plugger35; The Shamen - Ebeneezer Goode (2 billys)
The Filth Wizard; Tool - Prison Sex (1 billy)
Bet on Blue; 10cc - Rubber Bullets
