Errr, take a look who had the opening swing in this little discussion, Neville.
Nah, I'm opting out. I've already massively exceeded my scuffle quota on this forum. I will say, though, that it's difficult to see why you're all on the RD-bashing bandwagon when there are so many worthier deviates about.

Haha, someone posted that earlier in the thread actually, I forget who it was or who it was for.

Think the version mentioned was The Clash's cover, though.

That (Sum41) is a shocker! :p You could've used the Genesis number of the same title.
I wasn't aware of the Genesis number. Besides, Sum 41 aren't so much horrendous as utterly generic and unremarkable. If you want a 'horrible' pop-punk band (:fear:), listen to Good Charlotte.

That being said, I was stretching on that one, I do admit.
