Bye Bye Neil

Post by YzzzR1 »

and Joni can stuff it with the political posturing. You're both completely irrelevant these days and neither have wrote a decent tune in decades.

I actually had to look him up because I was sure he'd died years ago.

Nope, just his music. [icon_lol2.gif] [icon_lol2.gif] [icon_lol2.gif] Love his older pre-ultra-political stuff tho.

What a schmuck.

So, is your reasoning that because you like their music (assumedly) you will follow their political stance?

Or do you already have that stance and are pleased people who have been famous at some point in their lives share that stance?

I have never understood people who will blindly follow celebrities "because they are celebrities".

Except for one maybe two of Joni's songs, I don't think anyone actually likes Joni's music. I could be wrong tho.

I'm getting worried about myself because I don't follow any celebrity much less plural.

After all the albums she sold and award's she's won I'm thinking she had a big following. She's had major health problems and probably more interested in her painting instead of writing and singing at one point. She's got another acknowledgement coming up.

I have to admit for the first time ever I agree with spooker 100%. To be truthful I've never been a fan of these two artists and generally have had no use for Young at all. But, I'm in total support of the stand they are taking. With some celebrities it's gone the other way so no not all of us 'blindly follow'.

has generated some great memes
I agree I didn't know if Neil was still around - and he and Joan's friendship goes back decades
