Placebo
Are there any Placebo fans on here? I just started listening to them about a year or so ago. My favorite song is probably Special K.

Re: Placebo
Wow, I haven't posted in forever!
I have loved Placebo for nearly 10 years...and saw them in concert back in April. I was completely blown away! Amazing show!

Re: Placebo
I think the only some of theirs that I've ever heard is the one they play on the radio all the time.

Re: Placebo
Which is probably 'Every You Every Me'. Or maybe 'Pure Morning'.

Re: Placebo
I don't like the way the guy is singing. Not my cup of tea.
And the music is mediocre

Re: Placebo
Thanks for that awesome positive input in a thread about people who actually like Placebo.

Pure Morning. That was the first song (only song?) by them that got pretty decent airplay.

Re: Placebo
Justine, you'll also want to check out Taste in Men, The Bitter End, Sleeping with Ghosts, and their cover of I Feel You.

Re: Placebo
I saw them in concert in Minneapolis a few years ago. I hadn't really heard much of their music. They were opening for some other band, and I thought they were way better than the main act. It's funny, I can't even remember who the main act was, now.

Re: Placebo
I have that DVD and I like it.
I like all their albums. I like Meds a lot. I like Pierrot The Clown, great song.

Re: Placebo
Live in Paris is smurfing amazing!
Meds is ok. "Pierrot the Clown" is definitely one of the better tracks. I still think Sleeping with Ghosts is by far, their best and most consistently good album.
Oooooh! Justine! You simply MUST check out "Slave to the Wage"! How could I forget?!
