Watch out it'll Mariah Carey next . Talking of which I read in Wikipedia that Sonic Youth had to remove her name from a song title for copyright reasons!

Yes it's that whole 'name and likeness' thing in most music buisness contracts....

Wonderful band! Unfortunately, like many other great geniuses, Nervous Breakdowns and extreme stage fright can ruin things.

Cactus was the one I thought of first.

XTC is definitely one who belongs on this list. I actually do listen to them still. Their bass player is fantastic, tasteful, diverse, etc. Their website is pretty good, check it out.

Don't laugh .... Terence Trent D'Arby

A voice like that and he vanishes to appear ten years later with a drug-rehab face singing a song that could be a jingle. What a waste.

I think the first A perfect circle-album is great but then they are just getting worse and now they are pretty bad. It probably wouldn't helped if they just made one album though.

A band that really everybody seemed to like a couple a years ago is Queens of the stoneage. The Rated R album is really great but then it appears like they are lost. Josh is a great songwriter so I'm not gonna give up on him yet.

My first post, ihaa!

Dukes of Stratosphere were XTC's psychedelic alter-ogo.

If there was any justice, The Camberwell Now's music would be cherished by millions now.

Bands that could've become true legends, but instead. . ..
