Rob, the main man behind The Prodigy, Liam Howlett, is a huge talent, and good musician with an ear for a great track which will work on a dancefloor or at a festival. Real shame if you can’t appreciate that pal.

He may well be a great musical talent. But if it doesn't come through in the "music", then he's not a very good communicator, is he?

But let's be fair, music is subjective. Every track that gets posted on here will have people who love it and people who hate it. And just because I'm standing in for the showrunner doesn't mean I can't have my say.

Looks like it's 6-6 at the moment,which rather proves my point.

You didn't pick up on the banjo reference. That's OK. I understand.

Saw a banjo in the backseat of a car the other day.
When I passed the car a few hours later, the rear window was smashed and there were 3 banjos in the backseat.

Abstaining this round. Don’t like either of them and The Prodigy isn’t a ‘song’ as he isn’t singing. It’s just noise.

Always been partial to a bit of The Prodigy. Outstanding live.

I guess you had to be there for both of these. I’ve been to more Irish pubs, although not in Ireland, than I have raves. Not a fan of either of these but if I had to choose, which I don’t but I did it’s the Prodigy by a whisker.

Went to their gig at the Ally Pally a few years ago …. Was heavy!

I can't champion either today

The Prodigy make Radiohead sound like Chopin.

Was going to abstain as that's, errrrrr, not one of their best, I voted for The Prodigy due solely to this post :)

Point of order!

This is a cover version. The original was released in the 1960s. The bloke who wrote it died on January 1 1996.

Is it elligible for the 2005+ category?

I'd say yeah, because this version was released after 2005.
