Ha ha ha ha. I can not believe LiveOnJim actually told someone they didn't DESERVE to listen to a certain artist's music. Are you aware how ridiculous that sounds?
I respect my favorite musicians, but they're people too, and no requirement exists that we have to worship them unquestioningly. |

it may sound ridiculous but at the same time if you arn't going to respect the artist then why listen to the music.

I listen to alot of different arttists, I respect alot of there work, but doesnt mean i respect them for other things they do.
And Liveonjim, anybody can listen to whatever they want, and you talk like you actually knew the guy. You only know what you read, you dont know why he killed himself, you know what you are TOLD and thats that,. |

For example. Avril Lavinge. I don't like her one bit, but I still listen to her music, because of her lyrics not because shes singing them. Her songs would be better if they were sang by someone else. You guys are fucking daft, because you were so quick to judge. So next time insted of thinking you guys are all hot shit, and assume the person's reason for saying what they are saying....Don't. |

there is zero contradiction between disrespecting a person but loving their art. james brown was a wife-beater, he also brought us the funk. i love his music but don't care so much for him. kurt cobain (when he wrote those songs) was an artist i respected and he wrote songs that i love. i don't respect his decision to end his life when he had a daughter. that doesn't change the fact he created amazing music. i can't believe you told us that liking nirvana's music but not respecting kurt is a contradiction then went on to say you don't like avril lavigne but you still listen to her music. calling people "dence", mispelling and all, while not having a valid argument to back it up was just awesome. how could i not ridicule your spelling? |

Cobain was the embodiment of his art... he's one artist you can't not respect and still like his music because it was like a symbiotic extension of himself. Bad example for this arguement. Oh, and there are instances where I'll love a person's music and hate the artist themself... or vice versa. There are also instances where what the artist stands for makes their music repulsive to my ears, even though I can still tell it's well made music (ie Lynard Skynard).
And I agree completely with Mojo on this one, even though Nikita's a friend. Glad to have you around, Mekim. |

by the way, there's no celebrities i can think of who i'd really want to sleep with. i'm generally more attracted to personalities than looks.
of course, a stomach i can bounce quarters off of and blonde hair never hurts the situation either. |

hahaha... you guys getting all agro over kurt cobain. lol
the good die young. he was messed up and fucked up which was obviously the source of all the great music he wrote. how many of us made it through highschool because of his music? i know i did! rest in peace kurt, i love you. |

Haha, you know... now that I actually process that logic into my head from text it make sense, but when I was pondering in my hazy skull it didn't. Much of the art I appreciate is controversial and I respect it for the art that it is, but I do not agree with it nor the artist. |
