Tricky as I'm not a huge fan really of any of these big hitters. I enjoy a bit of Queen in small doses, or at karaoke - their silly songs only, can't be doing with any of their "serious" stuff. The Beatles - obviously some cracking tunes, but I'm by no means that interested. Sex Pistols - bit cartoony, prefer The Clash. The Beach Boys - fantastic, but again only in small doses. I rarely take on Pet Sounds in its entirety - I seem to have a concentration problem. The Beach Boys have my vote.

I was assuming The Beatles wouldn't be in this, as it's a bit pointless. Oh well.

Beach Boys for me, only because given a choice in 2014 I would rather hear a Beach Boys record than a Beatles one. Freddie Mercury was a great showman but I was never a big Queen fan, wrote some great pop songs though. Sex Pistols? I guess you have to be a certain age, absolute shite as far as I'm concerned.

It WILL happen and you know it will be the Who, although I didn't even vote for the Beatles in this group.

If both win their group it's a potential Semi Final.

How on earth was this draw done ?

Several groups with meh bands, some with only one outstanding candidate, then this, which should be at least a semi-final.

It's like getting Uruguay, Italy and Costa Rica in the group stages.

England aren't in the same league as the Beach Boys......
