connie Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 I'd say Michael Jackson.I was also pretty surprised with their automatic entries...I mean, Bob Marley? And where's Bob Dylan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laxton's Superb Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 The Smiths, definitely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Fat Porn Star Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 My only thought is that people aren't going to want to be seen voting for MJ at the moment.I can see the votes going for either Prince or George Michael. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flossie T Sheep Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 can't understand why black lace, bucks fizz, russ abbott(classic disco anthem "what an atmosphere"), the grumbleweeds, five star, matt bianco, sigue sigue sputnik, europe, the scorpions or bonnie tyler ain't in that list?and where oh where is marillion???????

Hardcore Mel Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 i was surprised madonna didn't make it in, given her massive success throughout the 80s. would have had joy division as a 70s band rather than an 80s one, given that they only released one album in the 80s. i think i'm gonna go for prince, as much as i love gnr. the argument for prince was really strong.

Da Fat Porn Star Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 There are a group of 5 'Founding Members': The Beatles, Elvis, Bob Marley, Madonna and U2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flossie T Sheep Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 i was surprised madonna didn't make it in' date=' given her massive success throughout the 80s. would have had joy division as a 70s band rather than an 80s one, given that they only released one album in the 80s. i think i'm gonna go for prince, as much as i love gnr. the argument for prince was really strong.[/quote']ian curtis died in 1980 so yeah i would've classed joy division more as a 70s band because most of their gigs and tracks were recorded between 1977 and 1980 surely new order have more grounding to be classed as an 80s band than joy division non?

Guest HARRY Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 Black Lace were by far THE most influencial band from the 80s. period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camie Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 id say Bob Dylan will come up in 70's hall of fame.Id say Smiths,Rem,GnR. Beastie Boys aswell.Cant really break down the list anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flossie T Sheep Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 Black Lace were by far THE most influencial band from the 80s. period.or should that be influenzial? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flossie T Sheep Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 right, nae bullshit or fannying aboot, lets talk about the 70s showi reckon the goombay dance band, father abraham, clive dunn, demos roussos and adrian munsey should be shortlisted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neil ex Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 out of that list i'd say the smiths, joy division and public enemy, though that's just personal choice. i don't really care who's the most influential band of the 80s. probably venom.i'm surprised metallica didn't make the list. they were actually good in the 80s.
