I have no idea who you are talking about. But a short guy with a cute butt ?

Come to Sparky....come to Sparky.

Nonetheless, the Franz boys get my vote. I can't imagine a better new band.

And he'd love it, too. I generally don't like them so skinny that they look like heroin addicts, but I'll make one exception.

Maroon 5 are dull, The Killers are a copy of a copy, Franz Ferdinand are brilliant musicians, and write very nice songs so they're my choice.

How do you like the new album, Romy? I was hoping you'd pop up sometime to say something about it and give your unique perspective.

Hey thanks . But I'm a bad fan, since I haven't bought it yet. I hope to repent sometime next week.

Well, I understand that you don't understand. It's a drag sometimes to pronounce what you mean in another language. I think The Killers-songs are less "construction" than those of Franz Ferdinand. The flow more naturally. And I've got every album that Fischer-Z brought out and every Talking heads record, so FF is something that sounds so familiar to me that they don't surprise me anymore. The killers are not on my top list though because they are very ecclectic, too , but their songs are more straight forward songideas, not 5 ideas that morph into one.....

catch my drift?

My vote's for Joy Division. Ehm, I meant Killers. Ehm, I meant Franz Ferdinand. Ehm.. oh hell!

Oh, it's Killers, not The Killers, am I right? I'm not a fan but they won't stop talking about them on the NewOrderOnlineboard.

Maroon 5? Someone unscrew that vice grip and remove Levine's balls from it.

Franz Ferdinand all the way. One of my favorite bands. I love those pale, skinny boys with every fiber of my being.
I must concur...with everything.

The Killers. Because Brandon Flowers is f*ckin' hot, and Maroon 5 are waaay overrated.

I really would've voted for the Killers, but I don't think they'd stand a chance against some of the other older bands.

I forgot if I posted this already and am too lazy to check

The Killers are okay and Mr. Brightside is positively glorious in is mania to these ears.

FF is okay, but I just do not get into their stuff.

Maroon 5 is okay, but nothing really stands out to me.

All is all, these three are varying shades of the lower end of mediocrity as far as I am concerned.

You've turned. I don't even recognize you anymore.

FF is still way more fun to dance to and sing to. If that makes you feel better.

I've always loved The Killers tho. You know that.

You should see me try to sing The Fallen. I gasp for air a minute into it.
