LIONEL RICHIE

[A Guy Called Matt]

I like Jessie J

I like Clean Bandit

and despite not being a real fan of Lionel Richie will probably go and see him on the Sunday as that is part of what makes Glastonbury special.

I like Jessie J

She has shit ears.

ah man, now I'm right in a fucking bind, I'm #Team Swift and #Team Russy. Time and space is about to fold in on itself

As someone on here once said; that's how black holes start.

[Purple aki squat]

a smashing pair of bangers does not a good film make.

Not true

Drop Swift at your peril. She'll write a fucking song about what a tosspiece she thinks you are.

The trouble is some of you have your head buried so far up your own arses with your deluded music purist stance , you really cannot see how much of a twat you come across as and simply labelling something as "shit" is just ridiculous, when millions of record sales or millions of viewers shows otherwise. It may be brainless, predictable, by the numbers pop music, which may not be your thang, given your clearly higher social standing than us mere minions, however it meets a demand for the masses at a certain point in time, sometimes that demand continues for a very long time. It's not shit, it's just not your taste.

I'm not speaking about Madonna, I was referring to comments about Lionel Richie, but my sentiment could be applied to her also. I just find this whole dismissive "they're shit" attitude winds me up a treat and a "true" music lover, likes whatever they like, fuck the genre, the person, their style or politics. A true music lover, which some people on here purport to be, wouldn't be so single minded in that they can only listen to music they can sniff their own farts to.

There's plenty of genres and artists that I like only one or two of their songs and the rest does absolutely nothing for me, but I'm not going to label them "shit" as I appreciate that what they do produce has it's place and millions of others do like it, it's just not for me.

Each to their own dude, but if people are going to come out and be so dismissive I will equally retort.

No mate, that's not the insulting part of it, at all. The insulting part is when those people are referred to as idiots, lacking intelligence, unimaginative etc just because they like something you think is shit. It's a massive intolerance to anything music wise other than what you are into.

Why on earth would i want to think somebody is stupid, boring or unimaginative just because they say on here that they like Lionel Richie, Madonna et al? All that demonstrates is that I would be narrow minded and lacking tolerance towards others for something so trivial as their musical tastes!

Hi Vern. We're great mates now.

All the best.

[Big Vern]

I am very pissed off with my neighbour today. Yesterday he kept playing the same Lionel Richie song at full blast over and over. I wouldn't normally mind but it was all night long.

[Brave Sir Robin]

Interview with Lionel in the Western Daily today: http://www.westerndailypress.co.uk/retire-ve-worked-day-life/story-25192435-detail/story.html

He'll be playing faithful versions of all his big hits, including Brick House.

Unsurprisingly...

Weird interview from Lionel, but EFESTIVALS was sourced in the BBC article Neil!

[matt2007]

Putting a roof over the farm sounds a bit monorail........

[GlastoSimon]

Don't tell Lionel, but I think he's going to be disappointed when he realises that the giant 'Lionel Richie head' thing was at Bestival.

Or am I missing something? Has there been a similar installation at Glastonbury? If so I've not seen it!

[benj847]

The head thing was at Bestival but was there not a Lionel sand sculpture?

[CaledonianGonzo]

Sounds like he at least has a show that'll please the folk that turn up.
