greatest British band of the 70s-80s

I am a big fan of theirs. If the Hall of Fame was only about record sales then perhaps they wouldn't qualify. Their songwriting alone could justify their induction. Squeeze brought us Difford and Tilbrook plus Jools Holland. Paul Carrack did some fine work with them and Gil was a first-class drummer. Live, they rocked much harder than on record. I especially remember the version of "Great Balls of Fire" they played as an encore on one of the tours. Jerry Lee would have liked it.

Amazing band Deserving of a Hall Of Fame Nod

Frickin great band

tempted

tempted to give them a 5

No way. Not even enough good songs to fill 1/2 of a greatest hits album.

cool for cats

They were a mid-upper tier band in their genre, but completely flopped in the US, with only one top 20 hit. Yes, they had a hell of a lot of UK hits, but the US charts matter a lot more due to the population differences between the two countries. For them to have a cumulative rating this high is laughable.

They made some decent pop music,and were entertaining at the time,but I don't think they made any real contribution to Rock n Roll.

who?

No x 1 million

The fathers of Britpop. If someday Blur is in and Squeeze is not, it will be a massive injustice!

Absolutely should be in.

Great New wave pop tunesmiths

A great pop band, but not the Hall of Fame.

One of the most underrated bands ever.The fact that Elvis Costello mentioned Difford and Tilbrook's worthiness of induction at his OWN induction into the R and R H of F speaks volumes. At the very least they are worthy of the Songwriters Hall of Fame.

A good band that got no respect here in the US. Their early 80's top 40 success was'nt even close to the quality of the rest of their material.

Yes, they should be in the R&R Hall of Fame! Their music is so wonderful, so many lovely songs amongst their catalog. They really are one of the most underrated bands ever!

One of the very best bands out of the post punk/ New Wave gerne

No!
