Can't stand narrow-minded people like you who think they can dismiss an entire genre with their 'superior music knowledge' when really you know nothing.
1. McFly may be embarassing to anyone over twelve, but think about it. A kid getting into music has a few routes - they'll either be into McFly, crap pop music, 50 Cent & G-Unit or something along that line of talent. Someone who listens to pop music when they're younger will currently be listening to the new Lee Ryan album or the Akon one. Someone who listens to 50 Cent will grow up and start listening religiously to Tupac and become disillusioned and start trying to be black. Someone who listens to McFly though, will think rock bands are cool, people with guitars are cool. At that age they are too young to appreciate the poetic value of more mature guitar music, but as they grow up, those will be the kids who discover Nirvana, Bob Dylan, etc etc etc. McFly themselves may not make music that appeals to people our age, but it's a leg-up for kids so that they can get into real music.
2. Critiscise Hip-Hop, but have you ever even listened to Jurassic 5, A Tribe Called Quest, older Common stuff, Gangstarr or Pete Rock & CL Smooth? Or more realistically do you make an opinion formed on 50 Cent and Jadakiss and the stuff thats in the charts. Yeah, thought so.
3. Critiscise R&B, but have you ever listened to a D'Angelo album with the lights turned down low and felt truly taken away, or do you just see Beyonce Knowles and decide that you don't like R&B? Yeah.
4. Critiscise Rap, but have you ever heard the ferocity of Public Enemy and Wu-Tang Clan in full flow? It'd put most metal bands to shame.
Rant over.
But my musci tastes go: 1) Idlewild 2) Counting Crows 3) Everything else

And you like Snow Patrol?
1. Steps
2. Roll deep
3. The darkness
4. Westlife (in fact any homo boy bands)
5. Linkin Park/Korn/ICP (or any generic nu metal/rap metal pointless rubbish)
2. Any Hip-Hop person
3. Any RnB person
4. Any rap person
Can't think of a fifth

Trust me Bob, in a few years when you grow pubic hair/eyebrows you will begin to appreciate that Girls Aloud have so much more to offer than just music!
Reduce volume...yes! Kill..NO!
