So is John Lydon
>>74099490
It's not too surprising John Lydon liked Can. What is surprising is that Sid Vicious did, and he was the one that got John into it.
not uncommon story, but Numan's autistic earnestness is sweet, and the implications that a master inspired a student, who reinspired the master is heartwarming.

>Since that time, Diorama has sold over 500,000 copies worldwide and yielded three top 20 singles in this country. Rolling Stone magazine dubbed the album "one of the boldest musical statements ever made by an Australian rock band" and Kerrang! said it was "their first truly great album". After hearing some of the songs, Bono from U2 told Rolling Stone that people should "swim to Australia to hear them if you have to".

>>74100240
>all rappers say they like nirvana, tis a little different
True, all rappers say they like nirvana when in actual fact they just think Kurt has cool hair
Timbaland considers Trent Reznor as one of his favorite producers.
Reznor doesn't feel the same.
>>74107281
I'd imagine if he got Timabaland to do a remix of one of his songs that he must respect him at least, but desu who on Earth would think a Timbaland/NIN collab would turn out anything other than terrible anyway?

Jimmy Iovine probably.
