I hated the Beatles and the Stones growing up. I came around on the Beatles 10 years ago and the Stones about 3 years ago.

I still hate Bob Dylan though. There are a few songs I can handle but they were when he went electric with a real band behind him.
Yeah, not into Sublime at all.

Also unpopular opinion with people in my age group. I don't like Radiohead.

I don’t know a single person that actually likes Radiohead.....

I didn't pick up on jealous and bitterness from the Quincy Jones article. He's got nothing to be bitter about, he's had one of the most remarkable music careers of the latter 20th century that I can think of. He's an old dude who's seen it all; of course he's not impressed by much.

Maybe I'm misreading him for being real versus bitter? I dunno. It sounded like a lot of jealousy to me, but I'm not him, nor am I in his industry, so I could be completely off. I do know that Jackson's family read it the same way I did but they are fucked up people anyway...Soooo...



I used to hate Radiohead until recently. The newest cd got me hooked on them. I used to listen as a teen, didn't get it, now I feel a real connection with their music. It speaks to me and I love music that does that.

I’m not here to judge mate

Just for the amount of hype they get I don’t ever meet anyone who’s like “a Radiohead guy”

Firstly, I don't like his style of music. Secondly, he's a pretentious twat. So why can't I be serious? Michael Jackson had more talent than that man did in his fucking pinky. Shit smacks of jealously and it's pathetic.

Maybe Jackson had more talent an "entertainer", but certainly not musically.

Just because you don't like the style of music somebody plays doesn't negate their musical talent.

I can't imagine why Quincy Jones'd be jealous of Michael Jackson.

This ain't really jazz or soundtrack music or even the best example of Quincy Jones' music (it's more like easy listenin'), but somebody uploaded it today:

Maybe he didn’t explain it to you loudly enough

I'm not trying to say he's not talented, so I apologize for coming off that way. I am saying however that Michael Jackson was exceedingly more talented.

how do you quantify talent?

By how much shit you can get away with stealing from other artists?

(FWIW, we can say MJ was a better singer and dancer than QJ… and that's about it. )
