[quote="Nikki"] Travis are the most underrated band of all time, in my opinion - especially in the US. Whenever I have a conversation with someone and we get on the subject of music, I bring up Travis and most the time the person I'm talking to has never even heard of them! Yet, every single time I let someone barrow one of their albums they're so impressed.
I agree with you. Its shame that not a lot of people get to enjoy their music. I think they have to work on their marketing. Once you see them (or hear them) you’ll fall in love immediately. I think they deserve their long-overdue recognition from such wonderful music that they pioneered.

but yeahh...i suppose it was a better result than some of the other 'top 100' or 'best 50' whatevers cos i've seen it before where they've been like 23!! cripeys eh?
Coldpay were 2nd and Oasis (not surprisingly) came 1st..
hmmm..yeahh..that's about it :)
i do think travis are quite underestimated sometimes..i think that about Manic Street Preachers too though..ahh it annoys me!

Oasis came first? Oh for gods sake!! |

Hate to say it but I don't think WDIAROM is Travis' best song at ALL (though it's still a great song) :p

| I don't like these "lists". Sometimes they are fun, but still pointless in my opinion. Music is not some kind of sport. |
