Fav British Artist

[driftinginfluence]

Hard to pick, I am going with the Beatles myself but such a hard choice.

[Ruettiger]

It's a misleading question, as it states "artist" and you give bands. But out of the band list, I'd say the Beatles with Pink Floyd coming in a close second.

[WalrusMeat]

I really like the La's. So what if they broke up after their first ablum, and with only one single.

[crazycanuck]

Wow, who voted Oasis?

[CaptainRocket]

One with no soul

[Shiri]

Radiohead and The Cure are my favorites.

[borntohula]

the verve. or blur.

[saturnine]

david bowie. how could you leave off david bowie?

[squall17]

this is like the toughest poll to decide ever

[Scot]

this is easily the second greatest poll ever.

 

nothing beats the potato chip flavour poll started by sparky. ;)

 

i'm saying the beatles. obviously.

Placebo are my favourite british artist, but i also love the Cure, the Smiths, Patrick Wolf and others i can't remember.

[manfromharoldwood]

it was hard... but i chose radiohead.

[Scot]

almighty crotch inspector?

 

the kinks deserve to be on there a hell of a lot more than oasis do.

[Crusader]

Nobody appreciates Sting and the Police ;).

[Dan #2]

I like the Police, but i don't love them.

[Jarrod]

i voted for the beatles

 

that is one tough motherfucker!

[shade]

Led Zeppelin

Pink Floyd

 

I like The Rolling Stones more than the Beatles.

I was going to put him on there and forgot to last minute, then i made the poll and realized my mistake but you can't edit a poll and I was fucked, I almost put the kinks on there too, the verve was considered, but again there are so many popular bands i went with the ones i though were considered to be the "big" ones. I put Oasis on there simply because they are so big in the UK, and i do realize there are lots of good artists i forgot to mention, thus the other option. But yes, in terms of impact and his influence on others, Bowie should have been on there, even though i personally don't care for his music, he is no doubt very influential.

 

and Crusader, I do, the Police were one of the tightest bands ever, Sting is an amazing singer.

Nobody appreciates Sting and the Police :angry:.

no one mentioned a single police album in that eighties thread, and you're wondering why no one mentioned the police in here.

 

i think these kids are just too young. ;)

uh huh. You were were how old during the eighties? Let's see. Born in 81, and the last Police album came out in 83. You must have had really amazing taste for a two year old.
