Say what you want about him but he's got one of the best rock and roll voices ever. I'm not a fan of his newer stuff, but his stuff with Faces and his early solo stuff is incredible. Just great rock. I've even got a soft spot for "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy."

    Rod Stwart sucks.

    "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy" by the Revolting Cocks is much better. i have the RC tattoo to shut you up too.

    Agreed, though I'd say he's a great singer rather than he's got a great voice, if you know what I mean. The raw sound he makes isn;t always so great but at his best he certainly knew what to do with it - by that I mean the early stuff, too. His version of Handbags and Gladrags still makes me cry. And he could do a blues vocal so well - "I've Been Drinking" with Jeff Beck way way back, or "In A Broken Dream" for Python Lee Jackson. Brilliant stuff, and anyone who says otherwise is just plain iggerant. ;)

    That sounds like a 70's kids' TV show or something. :p
    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.

    Most of his albums from the 70's are pretty good.

    had my first trip/LSD(microdot)experience inside this spooky place, has miles of underground tunnels.

    I do know what you mean. haha ;) I've always enjoyed his earlier albums, not so much the later, although I can't say that I've given them a chance. :)
