My vote for this thread goes for Fleetwood Mac.

No. I refuse to agree with anything you say on principle.

I hate that godawful song. I'd rather listen to your band then Zeppelin. Fleetwood Mac Rumours is a fantastic album. I think they never hit their stride until the ladies joined the band and started to dominate the vocals. To the person who preferred them when they were a folk band, you need to go back and listen to that garbage.

Your vote's not important as there's no option for it, so you'll have to choose one of the other candidates instead.

Vote Boston they need the votes.

If Boston had only released "More Than a Feeling", they would still be better than Foreigner.

You're just salty I proved you wrong. Since when is hyperbole considered trolling? Is that how it works for you? You can't take it so immediately the other person is trolling? Sorry to tell you this but my opinion doesn't live under a bridge.

And Boston is the last band I would choose from that list.

Boston really? I was one key away from selecting them before clicking Styx. They literally have only a handful of songs worth listening to. They also only have two hits that anyone else besides a Boston fan could name.
