NME Cool List 2006: Are you in it?

and how do they actually decide this list? what defines coolness? i think its stoopid

</bitter that im not in it>

Isn't she like a fat bird who likes to growl at the badger???

How very 2006.

GIRL POWER!!!

and about time too

It has that spasticface from the horrors at number 2.

11 damn years

result.

is the bloke from the Fratellis really called Mince? As that's slang for "rubbish", it seems hilariously apt

too cool for any of those fucking shits. And Brandon Flowers? A bad photocopy of what a marketing company thinks is indie. Serge Pizzorno? Inter-band rivalry starts here, Tom is the cool fucker in that band, serge is incapable of putting a sentence together. Props to Paul Simonon though, he wears nice stuff which is what cool is about

for making me laugh at 4.45 on a Tuesday.

I'm the closest to commiting suicide I have ever been. What a DREADFUL load of shit. Embarrasing for all involved, and if I was one of the people ON the list I'd issue a press statement to say how dissapointed I was. The fucking Horrors. Jesus.

...appears to reflect their mentally-backward writers' masturbatory fantasties. This list bears that out nicely.

Unless of course for instance, number 15 was chosen for the commercial acumen of giving one of their first ever singles to a mobile phone ad.

puke out my orange juice. I liked that orange juice. I fucking despise Lily Allen.

well made you pedantic slowface.

except for the fact that Thorunn and Sam are in there.

Because they are cool people.

so it's less predictable than it could have been. so it's good. that was my reasoning.

that it's not good beth ditto won this, especially as it contradicts the anti-obesity program in school.

what kind of role model is she? mind you, what kind of role model was pete doherty...

2. Milf from EMF

saw amy shithouse on the tube, i thought she was just a tranny on the way to camden.

question 2: who the fuck are the gossip?

Mussolini was a cunt. McNicholas is a lacky.

No, me neither

Ugly bint (the one in the picture). Is THAT whos number one. Did stevie wonder choose the list or just someone whos just as ugly trying to make themselves feel better

Legend! she on ur top 5 must shag?

... bad pun. but if i was beth I'd want to lynch conor mcnicholas. A year ago, no one in NME towers gave two fucks about who Gossip were. Fucks me off, big time.

some of it smacks of utter desperation.

Informative, yes. Thought-provoking, yes. But to complain that Optimus Prime wasn't in the list is the most bizarre commet I've read for a while.

i've always made fun of lesbians.
i've always made fun of fatties.
so how can a fat lesbian (an absolute field day of joking in my eyes) be the coolest person in the world?

just kidding. i like the gossip.
at least it's not doherty or turner who's number one.

BETH?
FUCKING?
DITTO?

Snubbed by the NME Cool List, the Record Of The Day Awards AND the BAFTAs in quick succession. i wonder why i bother sometimes.

I read Victoria Bergman as Victoria Beckham at first, and given numbers 1-44, it didn't suprise me at all!

To be honest this list means absolute shit all to most people who enjoy actual music rather than the NME's opinion on music; something which most right minded people gave up on many years ago...

keep up the burgers!

Let's have one for flavours of crisps

Not even the coolest Monster Munch. That's the yellow one.

Pickled Onion are clearly the best.

oh wait, there i am at number 38, i'm such a TWAT

richard hawley is cooler than most people on that list. weird you picked him, maybe cos he's OLDER?

where is edwyn?

keith richards? hasnt been cool for a long time. i dont class being a heavy drug use survivor then falling out of a tree as cool but then doherty was no1 last year? i suppose that's moving on. let's all jack up guys! that's what it takes!
all the same i like the list. it's just to provoke debate so they've succeeded

I swear to God. One of these days...

why cee-lo but no danger mouse?

who the hell are the gossip, anyway? or the horrors? or the view? gad, i feel so uncool.

Doherty made it to no 28 on the list, yet if it was a list of the 50 biggest losers he would no doubt be number 1.

It's that thing i thought was important when i was about 12...

If any of these acts aren't really embarassed to be on such a list then that's a real shame. Only the terrifying alliance of ignorance and insecurity that is teenage-dom could create 'cool', and only an increasingly infantilised society could celebrate such a thing rather than slapping it down with the scorn it deserves.
I know so many people who have spent sodding years trying to be cool and preventing themselves from having any fun - that the adults at NME propogate the notion of cool tells you everything you need to know about their morally repugnant nature.

what teh hell#s he doing in it!

nice to see Richard hawley getting some appriciation

...she pretty much said she could understand why kids in America go into schools and shoot other kids.

I couldn't believe what I was reading.

She's a complete tit.

Any list that includes Ryan Ross and not Ryan Jarman is just not cricket, in my mind.

Unless it's a list of wankers. That would be fair.

they were voting for most attractive person. They're not going to claw their way up to Smash Hits level just yet.

disgust me.
