Beatles, Stones or Skynard?

[chaz]

In terms of sheer influence, I'll take Skynard any day.
 
 USA kicks ass!

i heard this crazy song the other day for the first time:  it was called something like "nelly vs. skynard", with the song called  "sweet home country something or other."  my feet were tapping as my brain was reeling from the fact.  i hate it when you try to hate something, but then you almost can't.

I hate to admit it...it's catchy as hell...

The other day I saw the video for that Nelly song calle "Trapped in the closet" or something.  I swear at first I thought that it was some sort of parody or something.  The words to that song are so freaking silly.  Has anyone seen or heard that song/video?

The Beatles are the most influential pop group of all time and to deny that is to either deny reality or to not understand what music was before and after the Beatles. What did Skynyrd contribute to rock and roll that no other band did? If Skynrd never existed, how is the musical world any different? They were a fine band who produced some fine songs and albums, but the Beatles' music literally changed how half the world listens to and appreciates music, and that was just while they were still an existing band. Not even Elvis was as influential as the Beatles, since he never wrote a song in his life.
 
 Hell, you can't even spell their name right. How much of a fan could you be?
 
 And if you were just being ironic or satirical, well gosh, that sure was funny.

Yeah sorry, thanks.  Hilarious song.  It's like an SNL skit.  Surely R. Kelly can't be serious.
 
 Shh, shh, quiet
 Hurry up and get in the closet"
 She said, "Don't you make a sound
 Or some shit is going down"
 I said, "Why don't I just go out the window?"
 "Yes, except for one thing, we on the 5th floor"
 "Think, think, quick, put me in the closet"
 And now I'm in this darkest closet, tryin' to figure out
 Just how I'm gonna get my crazy ass up out this house
 
 Then he walks in and yells, "I'm home"
 She says, "Honey, I'm in the room"
 He walks in there with a smile on his face
 Sayin', "Honey, I've been missin' you"
 She hops all over him
 And says, "I've cooked and ran your bath water"
 I'm tellin' you now, this girl's so good that she deserves an Oscar
 
 Rolls her in the bed
 And start to snatchin' her clothes off
 I'm in the closet, like man, what the fuck is going on?
 You're not gonna believe it
 But things get deeper as the story goes on
 Next thing you know, a call comes through on my cell phone
 I tried my best to quickly put it on vibrate
 But from the way he act, I could tell it was too late
 He hopped up and said, "There's a mystery going on
 And I'm gonna solve it"
 And I'm like, "God please, don't let this man open this closet
