    I never have. I only listen to Youtube at home and Bolton is not on the menu.

    Alright.  I confess.  I did to hear what Don was saying the in the other room.
    We was saying, "TURN IT UP!" This post was edited by Merlin at January 12, 2020 5:42 PM MST

      I despise everything that Michael Bolton does, says, touches, sings, covers, etc.

    I know it is because you haven't been able to feel the smooth essence of his voice and taste every word he creates.
    If you have ever experienced the desire to gulp a salty glob of cream down your gullet, you are for sure to indulge in the sensation of listening to Micheal Bolton.
    If you have never had the feeling of wanting to blurt out anything in the back of your throat... song, mucus, a bad oyster...you  haven't experienced listening to Michael Bolton.

    My client didn't like Arcade Fire.

    There is no accounting for taste in some people.

      I’m sure you took care of it by calling the client stupid. No one is allowed to dislike anything that you like, or to like anything that you dislike.

  • It was not what one calles music. It was pure unmelodic noise.

    Celine Dion- My Heart Will Go On. 

    The song was huge at the time and the radio station was playing it every hour on the hour. Just too much.

    my2cents, I fear you; therefore, I erased what I wrote and would like to conduct my thought in a more civilized manner.

    As you know, because I am writing without quotes around the statement nor quotes within quotes,  this only my opinion.
     
    I like to guard my wizardressness against you power.  You will win, regardless; BUT,
    How was her Star Spangled Banner?
    Was it on time for the ball to drop in New York?
    Is she a United States Citizen?

    I always send good thoughts to everyone.  But to fool a nation that the ball won't drop until your hair has a blowout is a little vain.... do you think that is so or am I being free=spirited? This post was edited by Merlin at January 13, 2020 5:57 AM MST

    No need to fear me. I do not think I have ever had to moderate you. You always seem so nice to everyone. But if you had a lapse, I am glad you corrected it yourself. :)

    I did not see her do the Banner or on a New Years show. But I am sure she likely nailed the Banner. And think most of the singers/actors are pretty vain. 
    I think she is Canadian.

    Rap. The station I listen to on the rare occasioms that I listen to music on the radio is a retro/classic rock station, unfortunately I'm getting to an age where some early rappers are considered "retro", particularly if the artist is dead, like Tupac. I can't stand it.
    Rap is called that because the "c" fell off at the printer's.
