Burst Into Heaven

It's a story that we read about way too often: Brilliant Flash-in-the-Pan Band Reunites Only to Disappoint! Thankfully, it looks pretty unlikely we'll see that happening with the Stone Roses.

Speaking to BBC News, Mani explained: "I spoke to John and Reni about it a few years ago and they said they'd love to do it at some point in time, but Ian Brown seems dead set against it.

In this case, it's for the best. Their absolutely brilliant self-titled debut opened up my music mind in high school. Yet by the time their second album was finally released, it never quite stoked their flame again (and I really really wanted it to.) We're better off remembering the Stone Roses much like we remember the La's.
