Don't you be dissing '80's music now.

No one trashes the "Fag Five"!

[metalboy]

The rest of the world hates us? I should send Elton the emails I get from people I know in England, Berlin, AND FRANCE who are sick to death of mutts like this Elton who choose to speak for them. My one friend in Berlin is married to an Iraqi and Elton should take the time to speak to her or someone else who lives in reality. Read the nice stories she told me like the time they lived in Iraq in the mid 80`s where their neighbors 17 year old kid was taken away only to return months later completely blue from having silver injected into him, which by the way is permanent...Nice stuff like that, but then again when your a world famous millionaire who lives in fantasy land, stuff like that doesn`t matter as long as it doesn`t happen to Elton. As long as Elton isn`t so inconvenienced as to have his trite Barbara Streisand like fantasy politics upset, and he can keep playing his over-played to death 50000 year old songs so he can keep making pretend he`s liberace everything is hunky dory.

Almost all began with nothing and rose to prominence almost effortlessly by our standards. Their sudden overwhelming accumulation of wealth, in addition to the general mannerisms of stars, their inclination is to promote us "feeding the needy".

[Caipirabob]

Wow. I guess "The Bitch is Back", and this time he's aged, has-been poof with bad fashion sense.

[cmak9]

OK, that's about enough. I will not stand for the denigration of Tears for Fears. They are head and shoulders above the other 80 pukes. Sowing the seeds of love was an a$$kicking CD. They have a strong jazz leaning.

Agreed!

The Las Vegas Sun chose not to report the offensive crucifixion stunt from Penn & Teller earlier this year. I guess that it is safe to trash some Vegas headliners in the local rags and not safe to report the scandals of others.

Here's one he's got a shot at becoming...

"Chewbaccas in the Midst"

[Abynormal]

Miller is happily politically incorrect as he evaluates the liberal's tender story of how ANWR would ruin the pristine countryside so that the caribou could roam about. So, it's OK to pay exhorbitant amounts to heat your home so that a couple of deer don't have to step over a buried pipeline? Miller never advocated killing or raping.... merely demonstrates logical thinking. Hence why he has become so popular with conservatives.

[mountaineer]

I'm not saying I disagree with drilling in ANWR. I'm all for it - my point was that the writer of the article probably exaggerated (or utterly mistated) what Dennis actually said about it.
