    Have England and Canada produced a single good band between them since the Beatles?

    What happened to British music since the Beatles? Their most well-known musicians right now in America are Dirty Vegas () and Craig David () Are you guys making good music but not exporting it? Or are these people actually your best musicians?

    Canada... gosh, where to start. Avril Lavigne, Sum 41, Nelly Furtado, and Celine Dion. The worst names in music all seem to call Canada home. (Nickelback is okay, but other than that... ) Has Canada actually ever been home to a good band?

          Since when is calling something "ok" praising it?

                  It's also from the poster who described the Spice Girls as ear-raping wastes of skin, which kind of puts things in perspective.

                      Now I'm beginning to remember those good British punk and classic rock bands. But we still get a lot of your awful pop singers. American pop isn't great, but British is just atrocious.

                        Canada produced Buffalo Springfield and Neil Young. Does Jaguar Warrior actually listen to music?
