Very nice and harmonic as CSNY are (and I love a bit of folk rock harmony) - I just love the energy of the B52's - and when I hear it I'm 18 again!

 

[BlueHammer85]

Unsure whos lyrics are more confusing.

They had 20 top 40 singles in Australia and multiple top 10 hits in Europe spanning some 16 years.

13 albums and yes wouldn't be known in the USA albeit they toured with Men At Work when they cracked the US market but I wouldn't describe them as one hit wonders.

Fair enough, I've just looked and they only had one here which makes them a one hit wonder as far as Brits go, I have also seen American one hit wonder shows consisting of huge British bands so I suppose it's all relative

Not my favorite CSNY but I cannot even contemplate voting for rock lobster

 

[WickyWain]

Rock Lobster can get in the bin.

 

[threespires]

Neither stellar in my opinion but Fred's cowbell and the fact it was danceable when leathered tips it in favour of the B52s

 

[Dogtanian]

Death to America
And butter sauce
Don't boil me
I'm still alive

Iraq Lobster
Iraq Lobster
