Oh- brown sugar- how come you taste so good
Oh- brown sugar- just like a black girl should
It was a song of sadism, savagery, race hate/love, a song of redemption, a
song that accepted fear of the night, blackness, chaos, the unknown- the
fear that the mad eyed norsemen, transplanted from Odin-drunk mead halls to
California desert, were still seeking mad eyed to escape.
Stanley Booth, The True Adventures of the Rolling Stones
The above quote got me to thinking. That cunt Paolo Hewitt- he that used to
write fucking shit on the back of Style Council records- will write in 15
years time about, say 'Live Forever'? Or anyone? This perhaps:
It was the ultimate con in a conning art form. A self congratulatory
strumming jerk off interpreted as a war cry by the band's ingenuous,
teenaged (that's inGENuous) and drunken constituency. A workaday hymn for
hordes of miserable consumers- stuck in the downpour of modern english
culture; prehensile, hamburger scoffing vulgarians hunkered down in pac a
macs, coming off E, waiting to be entertained. It was, perhaps, like
Picasso's 'Guernica' an unpleasant masterpiece. An accurate reflection of
its times. It was music without joi de vivre, or, if it had any, it was well
hidden. It reflected a 'youth' culture whose aspirations and dreams had been
hammered back to soap opera nullity. It was pop music made for bad tempered
apprentice electricians, smothered in after shave and coming up on skaggy
pills. It was music made for future wife beaters who hugged their mates when
high. It was the sound of a songwriter who'd sweated for his creations-
never again would his workmanlike compositions 'click' quite so well,
indeed, massive success (which always separates the artists from the
artisans) soon proved him to be shallow, lazy and vainglorious, which is how
history has judged his band........

Give up now while people are still mildly annoyed enough to respond. The
novelty's wearing off. Boredom is setting in. People are turning away in
their droves. Robbie, you're finished in this town. Your respect is at an
all time low. Go now, while you can save what self-respect you have left. We
all know "Live Forever" blows "Somewhere Down The Crazy River" out of the
water. You're a fool, Robbie.

Oh, and posting cross-posts to garner some inter-band rivalry is a sign of
fucking desperation. Don't fall for it Slipknot, Radiohead, Weller and Oasis
fans. That's what he wants. He hates all of us. He was dropped on his erect
penis as a child. It ruined his life. I mean, how can you shag with half a
willy? Pity him.
yes, people are turning away but yet YOU'RE still replying to him...

If you don't respond to him in the first place, then he won't bother. If
everyone ignores him he'll get bored and go away. Until that happens, and
people like you keep replying to him, he will continue to post meaningless
crap!!! Sorry, not having a go, but the response you're giving him is what
he wants. If he doesn't get it then he won't bother.
didnt know u were down with the (sic)ness.....
