I don't know which song you guys are listening to (don't get me wrong, I like APC) but I thought that cover was horrible.
-
I dunno.
-
EXACTLY!

Is the "I Got You" you mentioned the Split Enz song I'm thinking of?
If so, then Wilco must die.
Covering of any Finn written song = mortal sin.

Anyone like Wilco? I have Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and I love it like CRAZY, what other Wilco albums are good?

Ahahaahahahha. That's nice.

There's no way you can "prove" which artist has more of an influence on music so I hope you're not taking what you're saying as fact because it's your opinion, and that's all it is.
No, actually it is based in fact, and it's not something terribly difficult to determine. You look at the genres that have been influenced, the amount of artists influenced, and the "quality" of artists influenced. If you still believe it is an opinion, think of what would happen if you compared the influence of a band like, say, The Rolling Stones, to a band like Nickelback. There would be some factual basis to that, would there not?
I didn't name a bunch of artists to "win", I named them because they are all diverse (can you really compare The Ramones to The Everly Brothers?). I'm not saying Ray Charles isn't/wasn't influential, I'm just saying that Brian Wilson has (in my opinion, which is all I'm expressing) more of an influence on different types of music. -
Does the number of songs that was covered matter?

Funny how the Beach Boys (Pet Sounds in particular) influenced the Beatles (post-Sgt. Pepper in particular) who practically influence almost every rock band there is today.
Wilson influenced the Beatles, and vice versa. The same can be said for Ray Charles and The Beatles, thus rendering your point useless.
As far as how diverse an influence Ray has, look at some of the artists who covered "Georgia on My Mind":
Wes Montgomery, Willie Nelson, and Michael Bolton.

I'm just gonna do the movies I've seen this past week.
Amelie - 9/10 - This is one of my new favorite movies. I liked how everything was realistic enough to kind of relate to but surreal enough not to take it too seriously.
Supersize Me - 7.5/10 - Very entertaining/educating documentary. Really turned me off from fast food (even if only for awhile
), so I guess it did what it was made for?Suburbia - 1/10 - Can't really tell you about this movie because I only saw the first 15 minutes. I couldn't watch the rest of it because it sucked so much.

Most Strokes songs have really good basslines.

BUMP!

You can download their album (legally) there. It's great, especially "Fell Down The Stairs", "You and I Misbehaving", and "Reckless".

Suburbia. Seriously, once they got to the part where the girl started humping the air for no reason I stopped the tape. I watched a total of maybe 10 minutes of it, and I wish I hadnt.
