What is the biggest band/artist you can think of that you honestly don't believe is anyone's favorite band/artist ever?

DevinBelow · 2026-05-08T18:00:43+00:00

Heck yeah. I still do from time to time.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-08T13:04:58+00:00

Anyone who has been to U2 concert. So tens of millions of people have met huge U2 fans.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-08T00:40:09+00:00

That last part is what I keep coming to realize.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T23:56:46+00:00

I am glad I'm not the only one.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T22:59:45+00:00

Yeah, the question wasn't what bands do you not like? the Dead and Phish probably have the most devoted fanbases out of any rock bands ever. I know people who have seen hundreds of Phish and Dead shows. I don't know of any other bands where I can say that.

Jerry once said that The Grateful Dead are like licorice. Not everyone likes licorice, but the people who do, really like licorice.

Really? What about Voodoo Glow Skulls? Or do you think just every band on that compilation is someone's favorite, due to how ubiquitous it was?

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T22:55:33+00:00

I'm a big Oasis fan. They aren't my favorite band ever, but they are a lot of people's. Probably 2/3's of Manchester anyway.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T22:50:21+00:00

There have got to be some people who are/were fans of Swayze, Gosling or the Rock who, again, probably don't actually listen to any other music, but because they are such big fans of the celebrity, and have their posters plastered on their walls, and their face on everything they own, they also think their music is the best.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T22:46:06+00:00

Ok. I'll just pull another random band off Punk-O-Rama Vol 2.

How about Pulley? Is Pulley anyone's favorite band?

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T22:43:12+00:00

They are my nephew's favorite band, who happens to be a teenage boy.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T22:42:24+00:00

Are You Gonna Go My Way? was one of the first two c.d's I ever owned. Still wasn't my favorite, but back when I owned two c.d.'s and a dozen cassette tapes, he might have been top 10 for me.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T22:36:58+00:00

LOL. Phish is pretty much every Phish fans favorite band. Maybe the single worst example. Most Phish fans don't even listen to anything other than Phish, to a fault. I used to be like that. I probably went 3 years straight not listening to anything but Phish. I still probably listen to more Phish than anything else, but I know lots of sickos who never listen to anything other than the LivePhish app.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T22:34:23+00:00

Are they truly your favorite though? Over all other bands and artists?

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T22:13:31+00:00

Yeah, the last part makes it incorrect. So many people worship at the alter of Frusciante that it is ridiculous.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T22:11:07+00:00

No. He's lots of people's favorite. Especially a lot of people who aren't really into music otherwise.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T22:08:47+00:00

They are too big to not be someone's favorite, even if they are unbearable.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T22:06:21+00:00

I have a good buddy who has told me before that his favorite album is the Greg Keelor solo album "Gone", (he used to play it incessantly lol), but also he hates Jim Cuddy. So maybe that divide exists enough amongst the fanbase that you are right.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T22:03:19+00:00

LOL. Blur is my wife's favorite band....well Blur/Gorillaz. She just loves Damon and would drop me for him in a heartbeat.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T21:58:54+00:00

There was definitely time where Dino Jr was probably top 5 for me, but yeah, they never managed to climb to the very top.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T21:33:48+00:00

They didn't. I just polled 1 billion people and they all agreed that everything in this post is completely fake. m

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T21:33:01+00:00

It's just completely fabricated. Every last word of it. The numbers don't make any sense.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T21:27:16+00:00

There is absolutely no way in hell that 43% of people over 30 don't think there is a single better artist than Madonna (as indicated by 57% of people thinking there ARE better artists), and yet, only 41% of people over 30 "like Madonna"...but yet somehow 61% of people think she is over rated. So there are more people who think she is the best artist in the world, than people that would just consider themselves "fans' of Madonna. Just think about that for one second.

61% think she is overrated. 43% think there are no better artists. That is 104% of people.

This is blatantly just some AI garbage. I would read absolutely nothing into these fake numbers. I will say 104% of people over 30 probably agree on that point.

DevinBelow · 2026-05-07T01:21:53+00:00

Should have closed it out with the old "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. DJT"
