Matt Has An Opinion

That’s the key word – opinion.

We’re not going to agree, but at the end of the day I’m just doing this for a bit of fun. Feel free to open up a friendly debate about why I’m wrong.

The home of opinions on a wide range of topics – at least once a week.

“Red” (King Crimson) – Songs Ranked

In my initial dive into King Crimson’s work, two albums stood out to me – their debut (of course), and “Red”. This excellent collection of five hard-hitting songs was apparently Curt Cobain’s favourite album, and it’s quickly climbing my ranks too. How would I rank every song?

1989: The Year In Music

1989 – Thousands of Chinese crowd into Beijing’s Tiananmen Square cheering students demanding greater political freedom. This leads to the Tiananmen Square Massacre, as Chinese troops open fire on pro-democracy supporters. Elsewhere, Germans begin demolishing the Berlin Wall. Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev and US President George H.W. Bush declare the Cold War over. A pretty…

I do a lot of ranking lists, so let me explain my system:

Terrible

This rating is for the things that are just plain awful. Some examples include Chris Chibnall’s Doctor Who seasons, and Piers Morgan.

Bad

Bad things aren’t as bad as terrible things. Some examples of bad include sour cream and Jesse Lingaard.

Meh

Things in this category aren’t bad, they just make you want to shrug your shoulders and say “meh”. Examples include FRIENDS season 9 and family gatherings.

OK

If something is OK, that means it’s not that good but it’s better than meh. For example, the recent Star Wars sequels come under this category, as well as Ed Sheeran’s music.

Good

If I’ve called something “good”, that means its done a pretty decent job. Examples may include Clarinets or Chicken Caesar salads.

Great

Great things come to those who wait slightly longer, and they also come to things that deserve it in my lists. Some things that are great include Daft Punk and grandma’s cookies.

Amazing

If you get put in the “amazing” category in one of my lists, you’ve hit the big time. Examples may include most Beatles songs and Red Leicester cheese on crackers.

All-Time Great

All-Time Greats are what your best mate would call overrated, but you and I both know that’s a load of rubbish and it’s time he got a girlfriend instead of telling you what’s good and not good. Examples include Danny DeVito and Chuck Norris.
