Which bands have the best lyrics?

[djchemistry]

Yo LakerGod

I'd take BoyzIImen off that list, cuz they only sang what babyface wrote for them. They're only singers. Their albums were written by Babyface, except their last one which sucked.

 

[pulse8]

<< Leonard Cohen >>



I'm suprised you said that. Most people I've met have never heard of him.

 

[datalink7]

Pink Floyd
Jackson Browne
Rolling Stones
Crash Test Dummies
John Lennon

 

[Platypus]

<< weezer - rivers cuomo.


&quot;I talked for hours to your wallet photograph
And you just listened
You laughed enchanted by my intellect
Or maybe you didn't&quot;
>>




I always thought it was &quot;wadded photograph&quot;. Although wallet makes more sense, it will always be wadded to me

 

[J3anyus]

Tool
Beatles
Marilyn Manson
Lunatic Candy Kreep

NIN has good lyrics too most of the time.

All you people with Tool, Radiohead, REM, Pearl Jam, etc... how can you not say Smashing Pumpkins. Best lyrics ever.

 

[spamboy]

Pumpkins are great, but I don't think they're up there with Radiohead or Tool. And how about Portishead, everybody?

Oh, and no one in Jimmy eat World is named Jim. It was one of their brothers. Great band, though.

 

[spamboy]

That's cause they suck.

But anyways, Morrissey/The Smiths, Weezer, Bad Religion, Tribe Called Quest, Steve Taylor (and by extension Chagall Guevara), Rage Against the Machine, Pearl Jam, others I'm sure I'm forgetting
