TIBBs favourite British Band: Semi Final 5
Semi Final 5 You vote for your 5 favourites in the poll and the 5 bands with the most votes will advance to the Grand final The poll will remain open for a week so there's no rush to cast your votes. I have posted a song from each band below just incase you need any help. Maybe you may not be aware of some of the bands and checking them out may be helpful to you. You may come across something you enjoy and want to check out more of their work before casting your final vote. of course you can just be confident with who you're going to vote for and cast your 5 votes straight away, the choice is yours. so this is who's in this Semi Final |
I wanted to vote for Madness but I needed to be patriotic to The Beautiful South because they're a Hull band and I didn't vote for The Housemartins in the earlier poll.
|
i went for an eclectic mix of Motorhead, Sweet and Tears for Fears :laugh:
|
Clash
Queen Stones |
Madness (because of many fun bops)
Beautiful South (because of the majestic delight of a song, rotterdam or anywhere) Texas (say what you want has been used as title song for one of recent dutch drama series, K van Karlijn and i love Sharleen a lot, also her solo cover work :love: her version of whats new pussycat is amazing) Wolf Alice (very talented from recent years, a deserving MTV best push act winner for sure) |
Should we venture into "Tibb's favourite rest of the World band" in the future?

Obviously "rest of the World" means America, Canada, Australia and Ireland.
Possibly a splattering of European like ABBA. No Dutch. |

A lot of the American bands are Identified from their front man. Like Elvis Presley and the Jordanaires, Buddy Holly and the Crickets, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, Prince and the Revolution and The Jimi Hendrix Experience.
Actually The Jimi Hendrix Experience is far more a British band than it is American. Apart from Jimi, they're all British and the band was established in Britain. |
So apart from the ones above who I've just mentioned give me some bands that need to be in the rest of the World favourite band poll.
Obviously The Beach Boys The Doors The Velvet Underground Jackson 5 The Eagles The Ramones Blondie REM The Pixies Nirvana The Foo Fighters The White Stripes U2 INXS ABBA Elvis and the Jordanaires Buddy Holly and the Crickets The Jimi Hendrix Experience Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band Prince and the revolution Pearl Jam The Red Hot Chili Peppers Green Day Metallica The Cranberries The Corrs Thin Lizzy No Doubt AC/DC Bon Jovi Soundgarden Anymore suggestions? |
Quote:
past: Golden Earring, BZN, Doe Maar, Teach-In, Toontje Lager present: Kensington, Blof, Son Mieux, Volumia, Kane, Moke, Rigby, Nick & Simon but also plenty of folk-rock bands like Pater Moeskroen, Rowwen Heze, Snollebollekes |

One of my current fave tracks
Highly Suspect Again .. Play VERY LOUD ! Thus track starts slow ... kicks in at 1:05 .. and may take a couple of listens.. rather like Radiohead stuff This video reminds me of the WestWorld series :) https://youtu.be/l5-gja10qkw Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |
A few Canadian bands
Rush Nickleback Arcade Fire |

Their songs really vary .. with tempo Maybe the idea was that they’d fill the Nirvana void rather than sounding just like them .. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |
