Ohhhhhh no you didn't just say the Replacements wrote a bad song. The indie rock gods shall smite thee for this.

I guess I should be happy that The Replacements are actually getting hailed as a "Good Band" but how dare they say that this song is a bad song. True the production of it is a lil dated. It hasn't aged as well as some of the other ammunition in the Replacements cannon. It sorta has this layered upon layered guitars. Which I think Paul Westerberg himself is not a fan of. Just listen to his amazing solo work and hear for yourself. It's just good stripped down freewheelin music from Westerberg doin what he does best. Writing great songs.

How dare you rip on Paul and the Replacements. Of all the awful songs out there and you choose 'I'll be you'? They were one of the most original and influential bands out there, and you are clueless if you think he 'sold out' with this song. What the phuck does selling out mean anyway? One thing is for sure, and that is the Replacements never came anywhere even remotely close to selling out. Are his acoustic and melodic songs from his recent album another example? You need to get a new job, because you suck at this one.

Yeah this is ridiculous, I agree with the poster who said "It's no 'Bastards of Young' but brilliant all the same..."
I'm not even going to finish this countdown.

Wow. Just throwing caution to the wind, and spouting out as much clueless, tasteless BS as possible? I figure the people at Spinner must be losing their jobs soon... because this list is offensive.
I can't imagine people who actually have taste THIS bad.
