I don't either, since that's one of the weaker tracks on the album...

God I know I hate when people try to convince you that something is perfect in every way. I remember when my dad sat me down and we had serious talk about Morrowind... it was hilarious it's like he couldn't handle the fact that I didn't like Morrowind so he tried for like a half an hour to explain in fine detail why it was the best RPG ever created...
Thank you! I don't know why Smells Like Teen Spirit is supposed to be so good either. I think they deserve all the praise they get but they have much better songs than that.

Your dad tried to convince you Morrowind was the best thing ever? Ha! That's odd. The only thing my dad's ever tried to convince me of its greatness was the Everly Brothers. Odd because he likes much better music than that. He's the one who got me into bands like Nirvana, Nine Inch Nails, The Pixies and The Smashing Pumpkins in the first place. XD
as much as I dislike my mom, I have to say she has a much better taste in music. my dad listens to Dr.Dre and N.W.A. and other assorted gangster rappers but keep in mind I don't hate rap, I just don't think it's as good as say Nirvana or Helmet or Radiohead or Hall & Oats...
Hahahah!! Hall & Oats is awesome XD

I gotta say that I hate rap though. Especially gangsta rap like that. NWA is just....just awful :/

Mum has great taste in music too though. She's into more 80s stuff though. That's why I like bands like Duran Duran, The Cure, Squeeze or The Smiths. Though for some reason, she loves new metal bands like Slipknot, Rob Zombie and even things like Trivium. She actually went with me to see Korn and Rob Zombie a few weeks ago XD
yeah my mom loves Grunge and Metal. it's funny because she's a clean freak who sprays down everything with Lysol when she get's the chance, but every so often you can see her just drive by blasting some Alice in Chains or Soundgarden... she even tried to start an all girl metal band and they look hilarious...
I love 80's music too they had the best pop music with artists like David Bowie, Duran Duran and Klaus Nomi... lol...

AC/DC, Metallica, Megadeth, KISS, and a good majority of other mainstream metal artists. (or mainstream in general. Except Iron Maiden)

For me, its Led Zep...

I like maybe two of their songs... but... I don't know... Maybe its because its not from my time...?

Nothing wrong with any of that ^-^

Mum loves Alice in Chains and Soundgarden too. Really, most of my favourite music comes from stuff they've showed me except for all the Japanese metal I listen to.

Due to her influence, I really liked 80s bands like Siouxsie and the Banshees, INXS and ABC. Yeah, it's some pretty gay stuff but I like it XD

Well, nice flame bait/troll post. Reported.
It's not much worse then saying "anything <link=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view>this guy listens to", which most people think is funny (or terrifying).

yeah I know my taste in music is pretty much the same as my moms except for the 80's pop... but I got into that because of the opening to Speedgrapher, It's freaking Duran Duran, and I just went on from there...

But what they said was clearly meant to insult or aggrivate someone and make them flame.

it's actually pretty good if you don't think about it too much and throw all conception of pacing out the window near the end... besides the openings awesome... and the main characters if a pedophile photographer in a trench coat with a camera fetish... don't think too much about what I just said...

Oh, sounds like something I'd rather enjoy! I'll check it out

Kings of Leon. They're crap.
Eh. I actually liked their first two albums. It was genuinely good 70s esque rock.

Then for some reason they turned into a shitty Coldplay rip off.

Oh I'm sure that will be wonderful. XD

Hopefully you have better Walmarts than I do.

Last time I went, a 60 year old inbred freak followed me around for an hour mumbling "mama left mah"

I was horrified.

U2 I'd say. They're pretty good but really? Oh, and Nirvana, Kurt Kobain isn't that good of a guitar player, the only thing I liked about them was Dave Grohl.

I think Linkin Park is overrated, I don't hate their music, but I don't think they are that great.
I agree one hundred percent, have you heard their new album? Half of the songs are just remixes of older songs by them mixed with rap songs it's ridiculous.
