Elton John

Don't you know? Cool kids only listen to music before it's cool. Once it's cool, the musicians are sell-outs. ...Because selling out is totally not the goal in the music industry.

 

No because why should musicians and composers be so arrogant as to want to be paid for their 'music'. I mean it's not theirs, music comes from the cosmos right? They should all just be happy to share their work instead of acting like rockstars 'n shit.. fuckin' sell-outs

P.S. EJ is undeniably a great musician and performer

 

:2thumbsup:

 

I mean heès not an awful musician, but I still donèt understand how any of you can tolerate listening to elton john.. no offense. But I just canèt do it

 

A lot of his early stuff is great but there's a ton of EJ I cannot stand.

 

Same, he's definitely my favorite musician, but there are a good bit of songs and albums I skip right over.

 

some of his music is good..but it is overplayed and ruined by commercial entities

 

Yeah. It's hard to say anything good about someone who looses a pinball match to a deaf, dumb, and blind kid.

What a failure at life.

 

wouldn't that be Pete Townsend or The Who that wrote pinball wizard...not Elton john

 

Yes, The Who did write the song, that is very correct.

 

Wait a minute. Someone with a PhD in writing should know how to spell 'loses'.

 

Maybe they do not cover spelling in that particular course.

 

You are absolutely right. I'm going to go and forfeit my diploma. I am an embarrassment to myself and my countrymen.

 

I like him more than a lot of other commercial shit.

 

John Lennon sent his MBE back to the palace.

Elton, like the establishment cookie he is, was only too eager to be 'Sir' Elton.

Toady little bastard.

 

Can't disagree with that...Toady indeed.
