John Lennon isn't really a bad lyricist, byt the whole Imagine album has terrible lyrics. And Jeff Tweedy. Ergh. |

While that's true, forget the fact that it is John Lennon and read the lyrics. |

Except lyrics must be sung, not read. That's why they're lyrics and not poetry. |

Now 100% more avant-garde than Ivan!

Jeff Tweedy's lyrics on SBS are pretty simplistic, though not terrible. Other than that, I think he's an above-average lyricist. |

I think Sky Blue Sky is Wilco's weakest release thusfar besides AM in my opinion, which after hearing recently I did not enjoy. (Please don't hurt me Andrew!) |

One of us cannot be wrong

Man, I couldn't disagree with you more. The lyrics on Imagine (the whole album) are some of the best of John's career, and John was a great lyricist in my opinion. |

The only thing on that album that i'd consider bad is the overly tedious "I don't want to be a solider, mama" |

Most of the lyrics in Highway 61 makes me hate music. Man I'm like the anti-rolling stone. |

Well, the "BABYBABYBABYBABY" stuff is excusable, in my opinion. Most blues/blues rock bands sing about similar topics. It's the Tolkien-inspired shit that I find more offensive. |
