This is a better line than anything that exists in the song you are spoofing.  Consider making a recording of your raps.

StaedlerMars:
Yeah, the Strokes are American.

But he does raise a valid point. This country seems to be obsessed with their style of music, and I'm sure lots of bands that are big now here are influenced by Is This It. That and the Libertines, which can be seen from the fact that their album was voted second. Once again, really?

The article mentions that bands like Radiohead voted, I would be much more interested in finding out what their choices would have been.

RallyMonkey:
Seeing as how both bands mentioned are in the top 10 themselves, I can only assume who they voted for.

michaelicious:
Elvis Costello in the NME,
David Bowie in the NME...

Oh fuck off.

I approve of the top-ten placement of Radiohead's In Rainbows, mind. I think that actually is their best album. I'll waffle on about why some other time when I can be arsed.

I also approve of such a high placing for At The Drive-In.

But at the end of the day, NME can eat a dick. They are trend-following scene whores without an idea between them. I'm aiming to be a music journalist and I've said to my family they have the right to shoot me if I ever write for NME.
