I do actually consider Phil Collins to be up with the greatest drummers of all time (well, definitely not top ten, but probably top fifty) by the way. If you don't understand why, listen to Selling England By The Pound.
I know this is a little old, but I'll give my two cents - that was one of the worst referee/umpire decisions in the history of sport. Where has the common sense in sport gone?
Can you tell me where my country lies,
Said the unifaun to his true love's eyes.
Or, at least, that's what prog rock fans will tell you SHOULD be the most recognisable lyric ever.
1. Bloody Well Right - Supertramp (1974)
2. Mosquito Song - Queens of the Stone Age (2002)
3. Tom Sawyer - Rush (1981)
4. Ten Years Gone - Led Zeppelin (1975)
5. Teacher - Jethro Tull (1970)
6. Porcelain - Moby (1999)
7. Paradise City - Guns N' Roses (1987)
8. Beat It - Michael Jackson (1982)
9. Praise You - Fatboy Slim (1999)
10. She Sells Sanctuary - The Cult (1985)
How the heck did all my favourites end up in the same group?
It took me ages to decide on the order of the top five. In the end I relegated my two favourite bands to #4 and 5 on the basis that those songs aren't in my top 5 favourites by them.
The only reason why I would be disappointed by this news would be if the 1971-74 lineup of Genesis was to reform, and Phil couldn't play drums. Which won't happen, anyway.
A few hints:
- She does sing, but she is much more famous for her guitar playing
- Carlos Santana considers her to be possibly the most talented young guitarist in the world.
- She also has something to do with Michael Jackson...
Wikipedia has a pretty useful World Cup qualification picture, though it's a bit hard to see the small countries:
Here's a larger version
Green = Qualified
Blue = Could qualify
Red/Pink = Won't qualify
Purple/Grey = Didn't enter
Funny that no one has mentioned that USA secured qualification on Saturday (along with Côte d'Ivoire, Germany, Denmark, Serbia, Italy, Chile and Mexico). Well done.

Foxtrot - Genesis (album again, 1972)
EDIT: I have to add this - I didn't think it was possible, but the remastered version of Supper's Ready from Foxtrot Remastered is actually significantly better than the other remastered version from the Platinum Collection. Not that anyone cares.
