Shall we Radical Ra(n)tings? :D

Good

A
Barenaked Ladies
Goldfinger

B
Fugees
Shawn Colvin (I guess.)
Hooverphonic
Oasis
Weezer

C
Peter Gabriel (Not digging this dumbed-down, flattened-out version.)

D
Sublime
REM (By this point they'd irrelevized themselves, to the point of no return.)

Necessary

A
Goldfinger
Barenaked Ladies
Fugees

B
Weezer

C
Shawn Colvin (At least it wasn't "Sunny Came Home."  "You & the Mona Lisa," although slightly more annoying, would have been more of a 10@10 song.)
Hooverphonic (Sigh...I generally like them, but this particular song is a bit snoozy and really didn't add anything to the set.)

D
Oasis (Ehh...I've heard this enough on Live 105 to last a lifetime.)
Sublime (only because this song is 1996.  But regardless it really does not belong on 10@10, or anywhere else anymore for that matter.)

F
Peter Gabriel (You are all so right about this.  Ophilantitus FTL.)
REM (2 days in a row, and that's on top of weeks and weeks.  Gag me with a spoon x2^wks.)

I can only attribute Oliphant's outburst to a serious case of blow. Don't do that at home kids!

That thing where you apologize for being a jerk by shrugging "I'm not P.C.  So sue me," is tired. 

I like his profile pic... Perhaps b/c I'm a Mitch Miller fan.   :P

That, plus calling people douchebags isn't really "not PC," it's just jerk-ish.

Right...that made no sense.    He missed the mark.   If you're going to play the "I know it's not PC to say this but blah blah blah..." card, do it right. D-bags are not a protected class.
