Elton John Says Internet is Destroying Music
Jared writes "Elton John says that the internet is destroying good music and "stopping people from going out and being with each other, creating stuff." He laments the way that the internet and the emerging industry of digital music has created a cold and impersonal world for artists to create new music in."
Try creating music that people like.

now we are taking internet advice from a old gay guy, what has happened to this world?
There is hopeful symbolism in the fact that flags do not wave in a vacuum. --Arthur C. Clarke

Heh, he has done so, so many times... it's astounding! And, over such a LONG period, again, astounding. Far better & LONGER than today's often BULLSHIT "music" called "rap" (crap is more like it, any asshole can do "rap", ripping off soundtracks from others, & simply "talking", because that is ALL that shit is).
You have your "here today, gone later today" so called "rappers" (nothing more than thugs & gangsters wannabe stars, who are nothing more than DRUG MONEY LAUNDERING PAWNS for the true criminals, like "Death Row Records" who wa$h out coins/deadpresidents for the drug dealers).
Face it - this guy, gay or not, has done far more for music than any of these losers today have, who have the sheer nerve to call themselves musical artists, when all they are? Is punk losers from some "hood"...
She was fine, but ultimately, I had to keep my priorities straight and kick her to the curb. She was fine, but ultimately, I had to keep my priorities straight and kick her to the curb. A guy can only take so much, and having to maintain an erection while "Tiny Dancer" is playing on the stereo is beyond the pale. Soon after, I met someone better at a Mott the Hoople show at (get this) the Aragon Ballroom.
She gave me a dose, but it was worth it.
Ooh, you are a playa, aren't you? Whatever, you weasly slashdork. If by "kick her to the curb" you mean that you ordered a new blow-up doll, and by "she gave me a dose" you mean that you got a dick blister from whacking off so many times, then yeah, I guess your story is true.
