Elvis is called the King but in just four years i scored 16 number one records and had 69 top ten hits, Elvis Presley only had 38 top 10's so if anyone is the King, it's me, not him.
Everyone knows my story, big band leader, disappeared flying from England to France and all that but i don't want to waste my 500 words here rattling off my life story when there is a much more pressing issue, bands promoting bad spelling amongst our nations students.
Everytime one of the Beetles (I refuse to misspell it as they do) hits comes on the radio i turn it off, it just demonstrates how willfully hateful against proper spelling our radio stations are.
Same goes for Lynyrd Skynyrd who took their name from a tight-ass PE teacher which only makes a case for its members’ need for further schooling and as for U2, if you’re going to name your band after an iconic military plane, at least get it spelled right and stick the damned hyphen in, the B-52's got it right.
Cocaine-fuelled cheeseball guitar solos is not enough to excuse Guns N' Roses. If you’re going to shorten the word 'And' to the letter N you need two freaking apostrophes because you are removing two letters, and thus need to replace each with an apostrophe. C'mon people, it's basics.
As the band's lead singer can’t even spell his own name correctly, Axl?? makes it all the more nauseating.
N.W.A? No full stop after the A? They may have gone Straight out of Compton but they never went straight into an English class obviously.
Where to start with the Rap Metal bands like Korn, Limp Bizkit and Linkin Park? Virtually everything about these bands seem to scream awfulness along with the dumb misspelling of their stupid names.
Finally Led Zeppelin, even allowing that they were off their tits the majority of the time, how can you spell the easy English word 'Lead' wrong but get the more complex German word 'Zeppelin' right?
Honestly, until the leader of these band of miscreants are educated to the correct level, the English language is not be safe.
