Oh sorry, I didn't know that CIA is become an humanitarian organization in meantime. But I wonder why is that rise of anti-americanism  in the World, even in the West Europe, if your politics were so nice since Reagan era to Bush Jr?
 
Is changing the subject your futile attempt at deflecting the true nature of why you got bombed? You committed genocide and you were getting around to committing more atrocities. You had to be stopped, you were bombed, and your leader was eventually captured as a war criminal by the UN. Admit it and move on.
 
Personally, I don't give a damn if there is Anti-Americanism. The less the U.S. is involved with sewers, the less sh*t will be on our shoes.

Are your politics towards Iraq maybe created conditions for the emergence of ISIS?

Before you continue down this inane path, please review my previous statement regarding Iraq and Saudi Arabia. I do not agree with my government in that regard. I never have.
 
Now, are you going to continue with your Milošević man-love and keep on deflecting?

Baba O'Riley is easily one of the best prog tracks I've ever heard and actually the very thing that got me interested in the genre. Quad is a massive album in scope if nothing else and rivals The Wall, pre dating it by a few years I think. The Who By Numbers was a record of a guy writing intensely personal stuff. 'Posing' eh? Really I expect better from you Dean. 10CC were fun but then bringing Sparks into it as wellEmbarrassed
How Dare You? Have a different opinion to me by all means but Who Are You telling me what I can and cannot like? Better? I couldn't give a flying fart whether you expect better of me or not, the OP asked for which we prefer and I answered it truthfully. Your reprimand reeks of musical snobbery and I have no time for that kind of elitism, one thing I really enjoy about being me is ignoring peer-pressure to like the same music that the "cool kids" like and I have been enjoying that simple pleasure from an early age. Therefore I prefer 10cc (and Sparks) to everything The Who did in the 1970 including Quadrophenia and Who's Next ... I heard By Numbers once back in the 70s and I simply didn't like it - I couldn't give a crap about how personal it was or how stoned Townshend was or how pissed Moon was - I didn't like it therefore I do not prefer it to anything 10CC did. Similarly I don't care how massive you think Quadrophenia is in scope or whether it pre-dates and/or rivals The Wall and frankly those are completely and utterly irrelevant "observations" - I found it dull and unengaging to my personal tastes therefore I don't prefer it to anything that 10cc did. On balance I probably prefer Sparks to 10cc or The Who because their music and lyrics were more avant-garde and yes, of course 10cc and Sparks were fun, who said that music has to be not-fun? 

Yes, I thought The Who in the 1970s had become just another posing Rock band just like Led Zepp'lin and Bad Company (sorry, I don't either of like them much either). 

You are entitled to dismiss Pop Music and can even look down your nose at those of us who see more in it than the superficial that you apparently do but I don't believe you need to feel embarrassed on my behalf or be disappointed by my inability to achieve your lofty expectations.


As for Baba O'bloody Riley - it is not a Prog track by any stretch of the imagination but just for once rather than explain to you how and why it isn't I throw the floor open to you to explain how and why is... 
 
Sorry Dean I was way out of line with my post.  It was one of those 'should I post this' moments that normally I put the brakes on but failed miserablyEmbarrassed
I have an enormous amount of respect for you and of course your opinion and preference is your own business and not mine.
