I just like how he works his catch phrase into most conversations:

"Yeah but that guitar solo..." always makes me laugh.
Okay, yeah, that line does kick ass. And the studio audience definitely agrees given that everyone on-screen has to stop what they're doing to wait for the laughter to die down.
The thing is the guy in the white shirt and tie does look like Tom.
This was an odd thread to come across.
Never seen this before but was highly amusing!

Emery had some great fun characters. I thought with your fondness of the Carry On stuff you would be amused.

Just how is Fingerpoppin' winning here? I voted for the mighty BJ song, shit chorus but the verses are on another level.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

All of the songs listed are embarrassing and unlistenable, but thanks to eet week I do actually listen to Fingerpoppin

And, as I suggested earlier, the singer is someone we love. All (or almost all) the others are performed by sentient dung. Plus "Fingerpoppin'" is amusingly awful; the others are just awful (okay, BD isn't awful, but KISS are).

Real talk: the Kiss version of Black Diamond is the best song on here. It just isn't nearly as good as the Replacements.

I'd have to listen to it to fully agree or disagree and it really doesn't seem worth the trouble.

Right. Heston has created conditions where people can't vote for a KISS song without him claiming some kind of victory for all his insane KISS positions.

Its a decent enough song by a band I have no time for vs a terrible song by a band I love. I go with the latter in a head to head matchup, apparently.

It stands to reason after x many years/albums they could have one good song. But then there's Phil Collins so I guess it is possible to produce only shit music.

I might budge a little on Detroit Rock City. I just get the feeling that KISS is serious about their dumb lyrics.

You see I take it the other way. The fact that the singer is someone we love adds to the hatred of the song not detracts.

I've never been amused by Fingerpoppin' only sadened by it's existance. Bloody awful song. This is The Clash not Wham were discussing here.

That's valid and I understand where you're coming from, tho I'll always take shitty Joe over Billy Joel at his best.
