| Quote: El Diablo "I've quite enjoyed the campaign. I think all those who point out the "irony" in the lining of Simon Cowell's pockets miss the point. He's a very rich man, nad when you consider the cost of a single and the size of his cut, this chart race hasn't made any difference either way financially. That was never the point. He's a business man, he knows his market and he's got rich, I won't hold that agianst him. The campaign was for those of us who'd like to see a bit of competition in the charts again, having seen them steamrollered by the X-Factor's marketing machine for years. It's for those of us who are nauseated by hearing how hard the talent-show winners have worked for all 12 weeks of their career, when there are real musicians, writing real music who have spent years touring the country/world in vans, playing tiny venues to handfuls of people before finally getting their break, most of whom still wouldn't dare to call it work. #
I'm sure this Joe guy can sing very nicely. I know several people who can sing very nicely. It doesn't make them artists.
A lot of people don't care about that stuff, which is fine, but clearly enough people do for this year's viral campaign to work. That, of itself pleases me. Chart music isn't a big deal, in the grand scheme of things, so if you want to protest about it, the one proportional and appropriate place to do it is the chart, which is exactly what happened.
I own every Rage album, I still bought Killing in the Name. It cost me 49p, which I can spare. The few quid for the associated charity campaign didn't break the bank either. If nothing else, by the time the dust from this settles, Shelter will probably be about £100k better off, which is quite nicely in keeping with the RATM spirit if you ask me.'"
Very articulate and well said. I don't think I was ever really in disagreement with your sentiment but you've won me over regardless. |

I was dragged along to see Metallica on the last date of their US tour last week.
Horrible, horrible noise. Did two songs that were excellent with a recognisable melody (Sandman and Nothing Else Matters) but the rest was just a big pile of indeterminable noise with each track being unrecognisable from the other.
Also, watching 40,000 hairy, greasy individuals 9and that was just the females) robotic-ally headbanging and air punching in a zombie like state was surreal. Plus, too few many middle aged rockers with pony tails.
Don't know why i shared that. Oh, I don't mind killing in the name of, btw. |

I did write "nad" instead of "and" near the start though.
Heh, heh, heh. Nad. |

I would have gladly had your Metallica ticket if it was possible. I hope Adam hasn't seen your message as he'll kill you ( not really ). |

I sang Nothing Else Matters in a rock club years agoto a backing track.
Went down rather well.
Great melody.
"Trust I seek + I find in you - everyday for us something new - an open mind for a different view - and nothign else matters".
Great song.

A gentle Metallica song. You should have had a shot at Creeping Death. |

it is gentle, just a bit more subtle and effective than Standard Metallica, without the overload wall of sound thrash IMO. |

I told him my opinion at the end of the gig. It was an experience and I really did enjoy the two tracks I named but the rest, as I said, just one bill wall of noise. |

Temptation, greets you like your naughty mate,
The one that used to get you in bother,
But one that you could never bring yourself to hate.:icons15f0_files/4862-863FALH-msnicons.jpg |

St Anger has to be one of the worst albums in metal history. I have a copy of the Metallica documentary and it gives an idea of why that album was so awful. But you couldn't find a major critic who was prepared to say what they really thought when it came out. A stinker of truly monstrous proportions - but nobody tells James Hetfield or Lars Ulrich they suck.
I pity you. |

Metallica being one of the few bands I like more than RATM, I prefer to pretend St Anger didn't happen.
What were we talking about? No, sorry, never heard of it. |
