I just think pop stars should be honest about why they do certain things. Fair play to Bono and U2 they have stood the test of time, and written some classic songs. There last album was on par with lift music though. But I'm sure their next album will sell millions because it's U2.As for Thom Yorke and Radiohead, I will probably never understand why they are so popular. Yes, technically their music is advanced, but the band including Thom Yorke have the charisma of a turnip. Maybe you have to have gone to private school and enjoy Rugby to get them. What exactly do Radiohead tell their audience? And you are right IHateEditors, Oasis are shit now. The only hope was The Killers and Coldplay, but they seem to have disappeared up their own backsides as well.

Of course he wouldn't release their album in the same way, because he wouldn't be able to rake in as many milllions whilst preaching at us how to live our lives.
