If the Jesus and Mary Chain lose out to gubbins like Dexys or the Housemartins, then I'm going to delete every single one of these polls.

To HELL with what 'the people' want, if the people are IDIOTS. To HELL with democracy.

Talk Talk should have been given a bye to the final due to the genius that is Spirit of Eden.

Prisoners were one of the he great 'if only' bands of the decade. Phenomenal live act but couldn't quite translate that energy to vinyl.
