[b]I voted for Republic, but I do think Music for Pleasure gets a bad rap. Granted Nick Mason's production mutes some of the chaos, but what do you expect from a member of Pink Floyd. Problem Child, Don't Cry Wolf, and One Way Love are the stand out tracks for me.[/b][/quote] O-kay. Took me a while to get that one. :thumb:

Easy this one: Republic may not be the best NO album, still its better than Monaco's one.

How old are u, are u old enough?

Bit myopic around these parts sometimes. Maybe that would be a good poll: The 2 MFP's squaring off. I know who I'd vote for as I can't envision a scenario in which the Monaco album would ever be coming through my speakers ever again.

republic...i think i only like a couple of hooky's side project songs

republic...i think i only like a couple of hooky's side project songs

...I really like MONACO ( God bless that bass!!! ) and I thought MUSIC FOR PLEASURE sounded brilliant..... for the first 6 months ....but a bit like a piece of bubblegum - it felt empty after a while...and funny thing is now, listening to REPUBLIC ( after ignoring it for nearly 10 years, eventhough I have 5 versions of that CD...) it sounds better than I first heard it...maybe I had higher expectations the first time around. Anyway, I still have to go for MONACO cuz I think MUSIC FOR PLEASURE is the best release for any Hooky's side project!! ( anyone know how to get their hands on the 2-LP vinyl version of this?..thanks )

[b]Yeah, but what about those annoying sub-Oasis tunes that really drag MFP waaaaaaaaay down??????????[/b][/quote] My thoughts exactly. Besides, although MFP has some good tunes, it lacks Barney's singing - Hooky can't sing and Pottsy may as well be Barney, but without that little air of vulnerability that makes NO so good. Good poll though - the worst NO album v one of the best side project ones.

Never liked Monaco, and probably never will... So it's got to be Republic for me.

Republic by a light year! I only like two songs from MFP: WDYWFM and Shine

Come forth, Lazarus. And he came fifth and lost the job.

You may not believe it, but it's true: if you burn them together, the fire is green. Try it.

music for pleasure. sorry NO, but i'm going with hooky's baby on this one. just a better album, IMO. or, rather, fewer crap songs.

So it goes.--KV
