HBD Bowie (love this shot). Just looking at what Macca and David Gilmour have done in recent years, and considering Bowie's abilities, we lost him too soon. He would still be around making music and performing, and I think he really would've shined in the age we've been living in (similar to like a Dionne Warwick but on a grander scale). Such a shame we lost him but thank God we had such a long, storied career with some of the greatest works of all-time coming from his discography. Happy Birthday King David.

If this would be a song by The Go-Betweens, it would be one of their very best.
"You've got to take the moon from the trees/ You've got to hide it in your room." <3

A terrifying statistic for me would be "time spent agonising over what the Be Here Now tracklist should have been."
Probably could have wrote a novel.

I just realised something, Lord's new EP has a song (remix actually) with Dicks in the title. Dicks in the independent charts, you're weird Australia.

Hansi Kursch has taste: I think he has also got to be a rarity, The Beatles and the Stones in the same playlist?

RIP Meat Loaf. He had the best collaboration with Steinman. Rest easy brother.

This may be the greatest bassline in pop/rock ever. How he plays that mad bassline and doesn't hit a bum note singing is genius.

"You've got to take the moon from the trees/ You've got to hide it in your room." <3 I love The Go-Betweens and Grant McLennan's solo stuff has so much like this equal to them. Talk about an underrated band that never had the success they deserved. Lost him far too early sadly.

I’ve always wanted to hear Ride do a beautifully dreamy cover of “There is a Light that Never Goes Out”, with just their type of guitar fuzz and harmonies.

Imagine having to pick between Neil Young and Joe Rogan, and you pick... Joe Rogan.

🤣
As a listener, of course that I would pick Neil, I never spent 5 sec listening to Rogan.
But as a business man and owner of Spotify, I mean, come on.
Plus Young was the one who said:
“I want you to let Spotify know immediately TODAY that I want all my music off their platform … They can have Rogan or Young. Not both.”
😅
I would be like, ok, it's my site, I won't do what you tell me. It wouldn't be about money only.
So, ok, Neil wanted to make a statement and I respect that, Spotify was like, fuck you, you're not going to tell us who to put on our own site and I respect that also.

I knew Spotify wouldn't meet his "demands", and I'm certain Young himself knew too. I think his goal was simply to highlight the harm that Rogan does, while also making Spotify look bad for promoting it. He didn't "lose" a battle, he gets by with or without Spotify's money, it was just about making a statement. Still, it does look bad to "pick" a dumbfuck like Rogan instead of one of the alltime greats.

I agree about everything you said about Young but also he was, as you say, making a statement, it was more that than demand if it was demand at all.
“I want you to let Spotify know immediately TODAY that I want all my music off their platform … They can have Rogan or Young. Not both.”
I read that as: I will no longer be on Spotify. What you can do to make me stay is to remove Rogan from Spotify, which I know that you want do, so goodbye.
Many people are making fun of Young as he is idiot who actually thinks that he is bigger and more relevant than Rogan today. I believe that this is statement not ego.
But also, come on, Spotify is what it is, they are private company, if their breaking laws, they should be punished, if they are not, it's on them to choose what they would put on their site and who will they pay and how much.

But that won't happen, even if what Spotify is peanuts.

But that won't happen, even if what Spotify is peanuts. It would take a few of the biggest stars getting together, and who knows if even that would be enough. I don't know how much money he makes them, but Spotify couldn't have picked a worse time to have made him a deal. Apparently many of his former fans have turned on him because he's turned into nothing but a partial, anti-vaxx rightwinger.

I agree that Spotify can do what the hell they want. But so can Neil by publically shaming them. And who knows, maybe someone found his music because of this, and decided to check him out on Sp... oh, nevermind.
