Listened to Billie Jean while cleaning, wondered what the all time playlist might be.
I imagine Kanye, Clapton, Pink Floyd, James Brown, Ike Turner all make the cut with MJ but I’m curious what Lemmy comes up with!
Sinnead O’Connor was absolutely right to rip up the pope’s picture.
Lostphrophets. Quite a few bangers, but it was revealed that Ian Watkins is a turbo-pedo. He’s now in prison, and the rest of the bandmembers formed a new band, wanting nothing to do with the old bandname.
A few years ago I saw a guy at a music festival with a big old Lostprophets tattoo across his upper back. Poor bastard.
One extra awful thing about Ian Watkins (from South Wales) is that the singer “H” from Steps is also called Ian Watkins and is also from South Wales and because the tabloids at the time didn’t do and due diligence and the published his photo along with the story resulting in significant repercussions H, I think someone even graffitid his front door and received death threats.
And the first album is gone. Just deleted from existence. I really liked that album. But my god. The depravity of that man.

What do you mean? It’s on spotify, youtube and you can order it on amazon or ebay …
Not on the Swedish Spotify. Geo locking is a thing.
I didn’t realize that Swedish Spotify is “existence”
Same with static-x
That’s not the same at all. I get why you might say that, but not only was it not the singer, but the crimes involved were worlds apart in depravity, and static-x was still together after.
Seriously, comparing damn near anyone to Watkins is a tough thing. That dude was beyond fucked up and into the deep end of sheer evil. But the rest of it isn’t similar enough to draw the comparison.
What happened with StaticX?

Travis Scott.
I guess I’m too young to know why Pink Floyd is morally questionable?
It likely has more to do with Roger Water’s statements about Ukraine and Israel than anything Pink Floyd itself is about.
Roger Waters is a
conservativeantisemitic shitass, the rest are cool as far as I’m aware. I certainly havent let it stop me from enjoying pink floyd, though I have more trouble separating the art from the artist in other situations (lookin at you JK Rowling)Conservative? I think I’d check your own ass for shit since you’ve got it exactly backward.
Conservative? Last concert I saw with him he was liberal AF. On what do you base his conservatism?
PF (Gilmour et al) is conservative enough…rich old white dudes.
Bill Cosby’s comedy albums
God, my parents have a bunch of those and I loved listening to them as a kid. I can’t play then any more.
You can with a twist.
“You ever get up and go into a room… only to forget why you went in there….”
After he says “But as soon you sit down you remember… something something button”
Throw out “Unless it’s because you’ve been drugged by Cosby”
I’ll just leave this here https://youtu.be/7R0QTCtm5Ok?t=50

Sinead O’Connor got cancelled for ripping up a photo of the pope. The a wave of paedophile priest accusations hit and hasn’t really stopped since.
Austrian Death Machine. The singer (Tim Lambesis) tried to hire a hitman to murder his wife.
Iced Earth: the lead guitarist (Jon Schaeffer) is a founding member of a right wing militia group and participated in the 2021 storming of the US Capitol.

That documentary that Rachel Evan Woods did was shocking. It was so sad and really woke me up to what a POS he is.
Bill Cosby comedy albums count?
Came across one in a consignment bin a few weeks ago. Aww, nope, not even for $2.
You’re probably going to want the Uppers and Downers Song from Bill Cosby’s 1971 album, Bill Cosby Talks to Kids About Drugs.
Gotta have Garry glitter in there
Hey
I love smashing pumpkins, but Billy Corgan is a real asshole
R Kelly, Chris Brown, Kid Rock, and I guess Dixie, Chicks technically count.
What did the chicks do?
Opposed war after September 11th. Their careers got destroyed for it. One of them released some solo stuff a few years ago and they covered how big the backlash was for their statements.
I still listen to Stone Temple Pilots and Red Hot Chili Peppers
Daughters. Lead singer was apparently highly abusive to his gf, who goes by Lingua Ignota
What? Oh no… I just found them :( time to Google and then un-love them
I still listen to them. I can separate the art from the artist. Hell, it’s hard to find a clean soul in a good artist out there, sometimes. I can’t deny that You Won’t Get What You Want was one of the most visceral experiences I’ve ever had listening to an album. Sometimes you can listen to something with knowledge of the experiences of the artist who made it and it can change or enhance your experience. Kind of like listening to Manson’s old folk music…
Regardless, yeah he’s a piece of shit. Doesn’t change the fact that Daughters is damn good music. At least YWGWYW. Hell Songs and Canada Songs are kind of meh for me.
