Something has always bugged me about Trump playing “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” at the end of his rallies.

Same here. I associate the song with the pothead peacniks in my dorm who played it constantly during my freshman year in college.

The thought police now want to tell us that we can’t listen or play music if the artist doesn’t like us, what a country.

“One is music from the stone ages, and the other is just music but not great. Trump can do better.”

LOL

The 70’s is now the stone age? You sound a little wet behind the ears. The stuff being passed off as music today is pure junk. Yes, even the so called country music. Want real country go listen to Willie, Waylon and the boys.

and I will take the 70’s and 80’s over any of the crap beng put out today. Just my preference.

President Trump should use these tunes. They're better than anything by the Stones, have more appropriate themes, and probably will not have copyright problems.

I always took his choice of that song as a deliberate thumb in the eye to the leftists ... they wanted Hillary but they got him.

He could bring back Hail to the Chief.

Or he could have the Triumphal March from Aida when he walks onto the stage. (On-stage trumpets would be a nice touch.)

1968 - 1978
The golden age of rock music.
The day the music died? The rise of Glam-Rock.

Stone age. Like in the age of the "Rolling Stones".

And, Rihanna is not somebody that, to me, makes great music.

And, when it comes to country, I didn't mention any specific era of the genre. Want the 'old-timers'? Go for it, Want modern country, do that too. Doesn't matter.

The 70s and 80s was a great era for music, and there was/is great music from earlier and later. The Stones? Not my favorite. Rihanna? She's okay. All I said is that, Trump has a lot better choices out there.

Now, got get 'stoned' while listening to Willie and Waylon Jennings and the boys.

Rihanna was manufactured by the record companies IMO.

But you just can't beat a good Rihanna song....

Unless you're Chris Brown!

Pettiness. The president is doing them a service by having their songs played, heard and enjoyed. You don’t want us enjoying your music? Eradicate it, wipe it clean from history, so no one can ever hear it again, except in contraband, which would be a criminal offense. Are we at that point because of the sheer pettiness that a performer can’t control who enjoys their performance, their music? Are they trying to keep themselves relative only to one part of society but not another? What about diversity? It’s music. Most of us just think of it as enjoyable background noise. Get over it celeb/elites.
