Liverpool Echo
Why a Manchester City forum music poll has given the mighty Reds a lift in their chase for the title.

I think I read Paul is an Everton fan and the others weren't interested in football.

No beatles

No hey jude

No this



So The Beatles rightly sit atop of the poll

@Mad Eyed Screamer
Thank you for you kind and sinister offer, but in fairness to all those who have taken part, I cannot accept your offer. Plus, I am allergic to cats.

So there you have it. After all the discussion, debate and banter, points alone could not separate the top two. But in a 93:20 moment, The Beatles just about edge it to be crowned the Blue Moon Forums best band given that 24 voters picked them versus 20 for The Smiths.

Thanks to everybody who took part and made this a worthwhile experience.

So assuming that MES's count of 14 accounts is accurate, who are the other 6? ;-)

Great thread @RobMCFC - I cannot believe The Smiths finished this high!!!!!

A big thank you to @RobMCFC for a great thread.
A brilliant vehicle to discuss music- long May it continue.

The Smiths were prolific (or Morrissey & Marr were) writing 74 songs over a 5 year period. And unlike The Beatles non were throwaway sugar coated love songs (early Beatles) and none were written heavily influenced by drugs (latter day Beatles.)

I was lucky to see The Smiths 5 times and happy that they have never reformed - their legacy will never be tarnished by a dreadful comeback tour all though I'd be first in line for a ticket.....

It was 14 fake accounts plus this one - so that's 5 others ;)

I'll run with that.
