Guitar Princes - Part 2 [STYLE Series #004 - Muse (August 2010)]

The original prince of guitar is undoubtedly this man, Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page. The length of his arms and legs, the way he held his guitar …… Everything about him was cool, and he was admired by men and women of all ages around the world.

Peter Frampton was popular as an idol during the “hard” era of the 1960s, and later had a string of hits with Humble Pie and as a solo artist. Peter Frampton is still active today after many twists and turns. He used to be cute.

The late Matthew Ashman (right), with his beautiful mohawk, and the members of Bow Wow Wow. John Frusciante, formerly of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, was an admirer of Ashman's.

The Prince of Glam is, after all, Marc Bolan of T. Rex. He was popular for his fine permed hair and slender, sparkling fashion. He lived with witches, died prematurely in a car accident, and there's no shortage of legends about him.

Paul Simonon (third from left) is the most legitimately good-looking member of The Clash, with each member having a different charm. His two sons, Louis and Claude, are also models!

Nick Heyward of Haircut One Hundred, drew a lot of cheers wearing an Aran jumper from enthusiastic female fans and caused a whirlwind in the genre of Funka Latina. Even now that he has become an old man, he still looks somewhat cute.

Paul Weller, the dashing, fashionable leader of The Style Council with Mick Talbot (left), who appeared at The Jam and became a solo artist and an influence to Oasis and Ocean Colour Scene.

The uncle who co-wrote Band Aid's “Do They Know It's Christmas” with Bob Geldof? No, no, it's Midge Ure, the “Bearded Prince” of the Ultravox era.

Scottish bard Mike Scott's cut from his Waterboys days. Many girls were attracted to Mike's appearance more than his deep traditional sound at that time.

Edwyn Collins was the frontman of Orange Juice. He may not have a beautiful appearance, but his unique guitar sound is still as appealing today as it was in the past.

The Man Who Sold the World (Midge Ure)

I laughed and shook his hand/And made my way back home/I searched for form and land/For years and years I roamed/I gazed a gazeless stare/We walked a million hills/I must have died alone/A long, long time ago

"GIIIRL they had this one in MGSV and its like..... about the loss of identity and place in life.... about placing everything you value into the wrong things and living a life of regret . ISOLATION AND DESPAIR AND LONELINESS........... also if this song was a shape itd be a spiral. no one fight me on this"

...Well Better Than the Alternative (Will Wood)

Could you tell me/What's so wrong about what's wrong with me/I'm just trying to do what's right by you/What's so wrong about what's wrong with me/I'm just trying to do what's right by you/Baby, could you play along with me/Baby, would that be alright with you

"The meaning is pretty vague, and can be interpreted many ways, but its mostly from the pov of someone who is either a parent/in a relationship, screaming for acceptance. Also fun fact its partly based on Will Wood's fake relationship with his fake daughter Millie"

Better than the alternative submitted by @screaming-rocks

#OTD in 1984 – Bob Geldof and Midge Ure founded 'Band Aid' and wrote a song, 'Do They Know It's Christmas?', to raise money for anti-famine efforts in Ethiopia by releasing it for the Christmas market.

Geldof was given no more than 24 hours to record and mix ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas?’ at the SARM Studios in the Notting Hill district of London. Considering the logistics of getting all of those names in one room (which included Sting, Bono, Phil Collins, Duran Duran, George Michael and Boy George, to name a few), it’s amazing the single was released in the U.K. four days later on 29 November…
