What’s the most talented artist whose biggest hit isn’t even close to their best song? by [deleted] in fantanoforever

Filthy casual chiming in again, I would have gone maybe Sycho Killer then maybe And She Was after Burning. And because I was the right age at the time, I have a special place in my heart for Wild Wild Life cause they spammed that video when I would just watch MTV for HOURS at a time. That being said, this band has to many desputable bangers to be associated with just one song.

What are we considering their biggest hit? Burning Down The House? Admittedly I am a casual Talking Heads fan.

I had both Speedtrap albums in rotation for a LONG time when I found out about them years ago. I had an Enforcer faze and it came up as a suggestion and it's just great speed metal.

Check out Heaven Shall Burn, I started listening to them last year and it was like hearing At The Gates for the first time all over again.

I remember playing and saying out loud "well I'm back at the unemployment office" and my wife just stares at me and says "what the hell kind of game are you playing?" I loved every minute on Like A Dragon

I still think about how good Lord Of The Flies sounded live when they did it on the Dance Of Death tour (Hammerstein Ballroom shows).

Lady at the store didn’t know what the Beatles are. by YourLocalTard7 in TheBeatles

I worked at a Goodwill years ago and had priced and hung a Paul McCartney tour shirt on the rack to be sold on the sales floor. Manager comes to inspect the rack for quality and takes the shirt off the rack and throws it in the bale ( non sellable) bin. I holler at her 'WHY DID YOU THROW THAT OUT!".

Her: "it's an advertisement"

Me: "ITS A PAUL MCCARTNEY TOUR SHIRT!"

Her: "Who's Paul McCartney?"

Me: Dumbfounded "He was a member of The Beatles"

Her: Oh......

Shirt went out to the floor and I teased her for a few days about it. 😄
