    What's your unpopular musical opinion?

    I think The Smiths were ****. Boring, dirge with a technically around guitarist. But the singer droned on like shat, and he's turned into a right chop.

    Mind you, I think Oasis were the bees knees.

    So come on then, what do you hate that everyone else loves?

    Queen weren't bad to be fair. Some great singles. But plenty of filler on most of their albums - so I get why you say it.

    Mercury was great though.

    That's not an unpopular opinion.

    He's a complete shithouse.

    I hope no one still loves Eric Clapton but I’ll put him out there just in case…

    Never got the love for Bowie or indeed most of what Paul Weller did either.

    I’ll give this a go……

    - Girls Aloud and The Spice Girls are two of the greatest bands the UK has ever produced
    - As mentioned above, what is the obsession with Radiohead?
    - Take That are criminally undervalued and under appreciated
    - Kings of Leon are a waste of time live
    - How has Liam Gallagher sold out two nights at Knebworth?
    - I don’t think I really ‘got’ Nirvana or that whole grunge era/genre. Would honestly rather put Aqua on shuffle

    Girls Aloud are brilliant @Loko the Tyke - Biology is the third best pop song of all time.

    But leave Liam alone.

    I agree the Smiths absolute rubbish. I can’t stand Crowded House.
    But can’t understand how anyone does not like David Bowie.

    Girls Aloud's back catalogue is superb. The Promise, Sound of the Underground, Something Kinda Oooh and Biology are all on my playlist. I've one Spice Girls song on it - Mama. But I'm not really a fan otherwise because the sporty one's voice really grated on me.

    I like the odd Radiohead tune. But also, never understood the huge hype around them.

    Babe is one of the best songs of all time. And they've an unbelievable back catalogue. Handful of them on my playlist.

    Never listened to any of their music, other than if they're on a radio station or whatever. Never did owt for me.

    I was lucky enough to grow up on Oasis who I think are superb. Seen them a few times. But I wouldn't go and watch Liam solo. Or Noel. It's like eating fish without chips to me.

    Again, I grew up listening to Nirvana and they were an incredible band who I wish I'd been able to see live. I still find Cobain one of the most interesting humans I've come across. I also think Doctor Jones by Aqua is a banger.

    All the above proves music is a subjective topic. I'm well-known for my love of blink-182, of Placebo and Thrice amongst my circle of friends. None of them really care for any of those bands. My playlist jumps from Pet Shop Boys to Slipknot, Sinatra to Biggie Smalls, The Cure to Haddaway. All depends on the mood.

    Music is mint.

    Oasis. I don't hate them, but there's just something about the majority of their songs that puts my teeth on edge. I guess you probably had to be the right age at the right time in order to fully appreciate them, but I just don't get them at all. Singalong songs for teenage lads.

    That said, I do like "The Importance of Being Idle". But that might be because I'm a lazy sod.

    Smiths weren’t my cup of tea , I’d rather listen Cliff Richard tbh although they did have a great guitarist .
    never got the Darkness , sounded like a constipated dog on heat imo .

    I'll have a go:
    - The Beatles are vastly overrated
    - Imagine is one of the most tedious songs of all time.
    - Queen were dreadful
