It's obviously the Foo's but Times Like These is the wrong song to showcase them.

Well not really. They are clearly going through so I will use a heavier and better song but I think for the likes of Tony who will probably never have heard them this along with the next round will give him a fair reflection on them.

As if "You're the Inspiration" has anything to do with proper Chicago.

 

Keep in mind Hendrix wanted to hire Chicago as his backing band when Terry Kath was still alive.

Danny Seraphine was a better drummer than Dave Grohl & Taylor Hawkins put together as well.

The wildly overrated Foo Fighters.

 

Every album - banging lead single, decent 2nd single, another 2 good album tracks & 8 bland fillers. Rinse & repeat since The Colour The Shape.

 

Those lead singles are generally absolutely ace though - Best Of You, Rope, Run, The Pretender, One By One....not Learn To Fly though, utter shite.

It's my kind of town.

Just listened to about a minute of those Chicago cunts, it was fucking dirge. 

 

I can only summise that if you voted Chicago it must be a vote against foo fighters

For me, yes.

Don't really mind going out against these Fu fellas - they are one of the better modern bands, they like to play and are quite good. 

Chicago from 69-72 blew other bands off the stage.

This tournament has been quite good for getting me to listen to some stuff I've not really heard before. This tune has a lot more going on in it than anything I've ever heard from the frankly tedious Foo Fighters...

Loved the colour and the shape.

Chicago almost deserve a vote just because of their innovation when it comes to album titles.

Chicago deserve it for this alone:

Respectfully sir: that's bollocks.

 

Their debut was fucking superb. Not a bad track. Stopped listening to them after that though. Due to the above.

Chicago debut album - triple platinum - hall of fame
