TV preachers sell salvation for a buck.

I remember in around 1995, I got a CD full of games for my computer. Maybe 50 of them all presented nicely on a menu system. I loved the idea of it but never really gave any one game enough time to sink in. Before that I'd been buying games and because of that, really let myself be immersed in them

I find it a little similar with music. If you have too much, it seems to water down the experience.

This isn't a shot at technology though. Just how I see it.


I DISSagree. We use to have tapes when I was a kid . If someone I knew had an album I liked I took over a tape and taped it. Sure you don't have to leave your house now but I believe it's the same concept just improved.

I love the doors. They aren't overrated they are timeless

I remember doing that and then I feel old! Had to tape a few albums with two tape players, one playing the other with play and record pushed down together, and no one could talk while it was happening!!!

Yep. Virtually the same thing IMHO just an improved version that you can email "tapes" and talk whilst recording.

I'm not going to say they're over-rated. I just reckon they get lost in the magnificence of their talent at times.

I like Pink Floyd more than Radiohead.
But not a massive fan of either.
I didn't like Pink Floyd's spacey-type sound. Though I love songs like Money.
Radiohead were very good early on, then went all weird (to me)

In the musical context, apart from a Pearl Jam album, what does "vs" actually mean? Are they battling?
