Okay, in the long-established Prog Archives tradition of randomly pitting unrelated acts against one another, I give you the groundbreaking composer of the immortal Ninth versus the man credited with defeating the dread disease polio, versus a 2007 New Jersey boy band of brothers who got their big break on the Disney channel. Greatness all around! 😃

Ludwig. You can still listen to Beethoven in a wheel chair.
...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined
to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...

^ Ha! 😄
But Beethoven couldn't listen to the Ninth Symphony, he never cured any diseases, and he didn't have boyish good looks that made prepubescent girls swoon! AND the Disney Channel never had him on... how good could he have been, really? 🤔

Where's Dolly Parton?

I love her tuba playing.

Yes! The lung capacity required for such mastery of the biggest of bras, I mean BRASS, is formidable!

This is the most relevant and coherent of polls EVAR on PA.

Beethoven's 9th is overrated.

I'd rather have a 5th. (Of good whiskey.)

Your anti-polio stance is biased, unwarranted, and ableist. It's not a disease, it's a lifestyle.
