| prydonian460 ::: Favorites 2007-12-20 21:19:30 Part 2 Ms. Ronstadt's political opinions are of no concern to me when I judge her art for it's own sake . I respect your right to do whatever you feel is best for yourself . I notice that you came back to hear the song again though . It's just a great song and no more . Break A leg and keep on playing . LOL __________________________________________________ | |
| prydonian460 ::: Favorites 2007-12-20 21:15:40 Part 1 I agree with you to a point . I don't think it is ethically acceptable for an artist to use performance time to politicise at my expense whether I agree with them or not. I didn't pay to see them do that . I will not financially support them if they do . BUT ..I will not dis their art on it's own merit simply because their personal opinions are opposite of mine . There is nothing political about this video . __________________________________________________ | |
| nrthdude1 ::: Favorites 2007-12-20 21:00:46 Uh...not exactly. Mick faced being too old for pop radio not rock stations. His rock career was never at risk for getting older. For women it was absolutely different. As they matured fickle pop music fans stopped listening, and no loyalty existed from rock fans who always wanted younger & hotter women. With the exception perhaps of Stevie Nicks, none of the rock women from the 1960s and 1970s lasted much beyond the early 1980s. __________________________________________________ | |
| wdrroach ::: Favorites 2007-12-20 02:27:06 I am a musician, having played guitar for over 20yrs. I have never played pro (& have no desire to). I feel I am qualified enough to say that if an artist is going to use their art as a platform to espouse political views, I don't have to support them. Artists shouldn't attempt to alienate their a portion of their audience. In the golden age of Hollywood, artist kept silent out of respect for their fans. I support an artist right to speak freely & I also support my freedom to not support them. __________________________________________________ | |

| 3eyedho ::: Favorites 2007-12-16 08:14:20 I don't remember Mick looking hot in a red polka-dot dress, but I will search the web for that video. I would kinda expect more of that kind of activity from Bill Wyman, but who am I to say? __________________________________________________ | |

| prydonian460 ::: Favorites 2007-12-15 23:55:08 It's too bad that some of you can't separate art from politics . And although I am a big Stone's fan , Mick Jagger wishes he could sing half this good !! This is just a great song by a great artist . Nothing more . I don't agree with most of the political views put forth by the vast majority of the artistic community but it doesn't stop me from acknowledging the great work they do . After 40+ years as a professional musician myself I think I am somewhat qualified to make this judgement . __________________________________________________ | |

Median household income, change Clinton: +1.7% per year Bush: -1.6% per year Number of Americans in poverty (average change per year) Clinton: -800,000 Bush: +1.5 million Number of Americans without health insurance Clinton: +145,000 Bush: +1,885,000 Federal surplus/deficit (annual average): Clinton: +$5 billion Bush: -$350 billion Clinton: 1 blow job Bush: Choked on Pretzel __________________________________________________ | |

| wdrroach ::: Favorites 2007-12-14 22:34:33 Unfortunately... I can't look past it... she is too out there. Anyone who believes that the way to accomplish greater individual freedom is by increasing government power is an absolute IDIOT! __________________________________________________ | |
