By Tara Brabazon, published 17/10/2007

In remembering the greatest songs of the last 25 years, few can claim a moment of creative genius like Joy Division's Ian Curtis.

See how FOUR CHORDS are in control of what we often think is great popular music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8s13sASS5F4

This is a good example /critique of how the Western music scale reinforced the concept of spacial and musical harmony being related and the belief that the harmony of the entire universe was inherent in the mystical power of numbers.

Now is anyone going to refer to Kylie? If not how unAustralian!

HRS leaps to the defence of the Wiggles. Clearly a musical connoisseur.

Just as well Bananarama hung up their platform soles years ago - but they're women, aren't they?

The Wiggles are an Australian icon, and a part of Australian modern culture.

In fact, given a choice between listening to Robbie Williams, and listening to the Wiggles, then I would prefer the Wiggles.

Considering the selection of British bands available, then my personal preferences would be Massive Attack followed by the Spice Girls.

But you may be different.

bfg, not for everyone but up there with Gillian Welch, off 'All Is Dream' by Mercury Rev 'You're My Queen'. Josh Rouse and 'Miracle'? Cash's version of The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face'?
