Gay fervor - to most - is little more than nuisance or annoyance. The overwhelmingly vast majority "get" that almost nobody likes an effeminate man. In a pinch, especially in the absence of biological child, the female will "adopt" the queer male companion out of sheer desperation. He might seem slightly more reliable than the cat-like bitches with which she senses "competition." Once engaged, betrothed, or "with child," the queer friend is almost instantly expendable. Non-threatening to begin with, the relation is about as lasting as the ephemeral chatter that formed the fragile bond to begin with. Easy come easy go. Same as gay fervor and just as fleeting. <br />"I'm not at all homophobic; I never met a queer I couldn't stomp!" -Mike TysonAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16539509024463338672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8290900913414076199.post-79518349467937124112017-11-26T10:02:36.511-08:002017-11-26T10:02:36.511-08:00LBNL, it's a fairly well known fact Richard Pe...LBNL, it's a fairly well known fact Richard Penniman was queer as a two dollar bill and likely smoked a whole lot more than two dollars dick. Nonetheless, he had an UTTERLY FANTASTIC singing voice and wrote several really, really great numbers (a wicked piano player). So he didn't need excuses - his raw talent belied any raw sphincter - and anyhow maybe the drugs did it to him (turned him queer?). Drugs do WEIRD things to peoples' sexuality. Fact.<br />Regardless, Little Richard is a musician we still listen to (with excitement - not necessarily the type inferred Lol!) beings he's such a phenomenal talent. <br /><br />Try Richard's (live) 1992 European Tour (highlight) "Slipping & Sliding" (e.g.) as an exemplar of a musical genius who consistently maintained his massive talent (unlike Kieth Richards) to the end - despite the superhuman drug intake. <br /><br />Paul McCartney? What a miserable little prick. <br />It's a known fact "It was Dylan inspired The Beatles 'most innovative' lyrical songwriting period." Probably due to the greater Zimmy influence on John than Paul. McCartney resented Lennon to the bitter end - and it showed. Whatever (paltry) "depth" the Beatles evinced was obviously due to Lennon, and Paul obviously resented it, mainly because he was such a superficial little bitch. Harrison sided with (and teamed with) Zimmy, and that probably created the biggest (and best and most hilarious) of all resentments: Lennon's sheer, utter jealousy of Dylan. What a joke. Zimmy had songwriting talent galore; Lennon had none. Except what he'd "imagined." <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16539509024463338672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8290900913414076199.post-67350610142679934502017-11-26T09:58:12.426-08:002017-11-26T09:58:12.426-08:00When I was in Jr High, acts like Elton John (and e...When I was in Jr High, acts like Elton John (and eventually Billy Joel) were about as entertaining as the Beatles. They were actually no lesser talents than the Beatles - just a little less prolific is all. George Harrison was a pretty good slide guitar player but nowhere near as good as (Stones' session man) Ry Cooder. Anyhow, the Beatles had one or two good songwriters that managed to eek out two or three outstanding songs - and a ton of drivel - over the better part of a decade. But their best guitar work ever was due Eric Clapton, and virtually NOTHING they did musically (studio) compares favorably with the first half-dozen Zeppelin records. Van Morrison (not to mention Dylan) wrote umpteen "better songs than the Beatles," and even Jackson Browne or Warren Zevon have several compositions that put most every Beatles single to shame. The Beatles, were it for teenage girls? probably did more to RUIN the course of popular music (esp. in historical context) than every other act combined; they somehow lended legitimacy (due to the ubiquity of "seminal influence" on late 70's-80's bands with nothing better to do [and all of them become virtually completely ignorant of jazz and blues history]!) to whole hordes of extraordinarily sub-average music wannabees, who couldn't really master any instrument, with the most pusillanimous aspirations - geared towards millions of fans desperate for conspicuous consumption of ANYTHING resembling "cultural cool." <br /><br />Face it; much of popular music from the mid-70's onward is regurgitated R 'n R trainwreck and deviants much worse; derivative forms, watered-down schlock-rock where Aerosmith poses as "America's answer to the Stones," and legions of glue-sniffing morons slamming their angst-ridden gray matter against their own craniums, epileptic spasms synchronized to *pale imitations* of Black Sabbath and/or dogshit derivatives of Deep Purple. <br /><br />Grand Funk Railroad was ALMOST as good as the Beatles; and that's really SAYING something. But when Lennon took his clothes off for an album cover, and showed his ugly, spindly body next to that ugly gook Yoko, it proved once-and-for-all the "artistic merits" of the whole thing.<br />"Imagine." <br /><br />Fuckin' "imagine" is RIGHT!!<br /><br />Imagine THOSE TWO - Lennon and his homely gook looking on - with John "performing" Little Richard numbers! Imagine! ... Oh, wait, we don't HAVE to. Disgusting. <br /><br />I can't quite figure, given the extraordinarily poor taste(s), which is actually worse: Stipe or Lennon?<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16539509024463338672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8290900913414076199.post-41489601121957402782017-11-26T09:44:59.294-08:002017-11-26T09:44:59.294-08:00There's some relevance here.

Meaning, of course, sucking innumerable filthy shit-sticks is how he got "enlightened" as to what alternative music could/would/should be - for his queer (heavily abused) ass, that is. Obviously, time & again mouthing a filthy prick that just romped your own bleeding asshole is what makes for "great alternative inspiration," in the minds of mental midgets like Stipe - who, by the way, BELONG in the corner (not the spotlight.) But because he's one of the few to "confess" the literal truth about what he literally believes, it's best to put into literal truth what he actually does believe. Same as I've no problem proclaiming that fucking a literal cunt AKA vagina is the way to go (in my humble opinion). Just because it's both natural & normal and no need to preach it doesn't mean my "artistic vision," whatever it may be, amounts to anything more (or less). It's irrelevant is all. Until somebody (even me?) wants to make it so. In Stipe's case, it was HE that decided it'd become historical context for his "musical purposes." So it's he that's expert on how the other half - or rather 1 or 2% - actually lives. In raw numbers, with 7 billion on the planet, 1 or 2% of geeks and freaks, is a LOT of "alternative" viewpoints - and hence a ready-made audience.<br /><br />Something similar of the Beatles is true. The world was RIPE for a band that blended R&B (or "roots" Rock 'n' Roll) with especially British folk and even popular forms. <br /><br />As one magazine put it, EVERYBODY past infancy knows, in their initial incarnation, the Rolling Stones were the greatest white R&B outfit of all time. It's just a fact. The "other" fact - that the Stones would go on to become the greatest blues-based rock band in history - is never really disputed, except among schoolgirls and hardcore fans of a pedophile such as Michael Jackson (and/or other cocksmokers like Stipe). <br /><br />That's partly why REM never TRIED to compare themselves to the Stones (or Allman Bros. [cum Duane] or Little Feat or Led Zeppelin and/or &tc &tc &tc).<br /><br />Paul McCartney wrote one or two truly great songs such as "Let It Be" which was certainly no greater than the Stones' "Let It Bleed" even as caricature. "Wild Horses" is probably better than ANYTHING the Beatles ever conceived and Joe Cocker's rendition of "Little Help With My Friends" goes a great distance in showing why the Beatles were such a poor purveyor of blues and R&B. To say nothing of Gospel-blues, which likewise informs other all-time-great blues-based outfits like ZZ Top. <br /><br />The BEST example of why the Beatles really sucked the high hard one is to (TRY) and listen John Lennon cover(s) of Little Richard ("Slippin' & Slidin'" e.g.) beings it's slimey Limey screeching whimpers and moans make for the MOST UN-LISTENABLE musical experience in all of Rock (inc. Rock 'n' Roll) history; that's really saying something with among so many horribly bad records including the baleful existence of Lou Reeds' Metal Machine Music. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16539509024463338672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8290900913414076199.post-85028014345153573152017-07-05T17:12:58.491-07:002017-07-05T17:12:58.491-07:00"Screamo bullshit".

I don't think they are the "greatest band of all time" as one person commented, but they were one of the first bands I listened to growing up. I do enjoy several songs in their catalog, in particular from the "weird" phase. But cheers for having what is certainly a unpopular opinion and standing your ground.

You did forget to mention the Hello Hello song as one of the most annoying piece of shit songs ever written, although Life Goes On was pretty gaytastic. To the contrary keep up the good work dissing some of these old guys. Next up... Bob Dylan. I insist! Being able to write lyrics and poetry for people high on LSD doesn't make you a musician. You have to be able to sing and play your instruments, which he sort of forgot to learn how to do. Also, amen on Pink Floyd.
