Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too?

So yes we know the 1975 “Sloopy Girl” video was staged and there was no attempt to imply otherwise. No conning the public and it is what it is, a pure mimed music video of it’s time with a gyrating wonder nox fluffy flora photogenic beaut.

Now fast forward 10 years……how about U2 and Bono’s off the peg girl dancing on stage during Live Aid, London in 1985? I know he had a habit of doing this sort of thing and with the first two girls it was just his normal show off antics.

l do wonder however if the moment when he “rescued” the girl from the crowd in danger of being crushed was a set up or not. The long hugging in front of the stage apron and kissing on the cheek. Was that pure amateur dramatics or was what we were witnessing a spontaneous event? I know he enjoyed it more than the band as they were a bit pissed and had to just keep strumming along. The resulting publicity stunt and time waste was at the expense of dropping a song from the scheduled play list….their latest hit single.

Was that good deed we witnessed genuine or not?
Was it just pure magic, or a cringeworthy moment?

Anyone?????

What you are saying, @mylogic , is that you prefer choreography that is poorly produced?  Each to his or her own. (And that includes certain sock accounts.)

Most country “artists.”

Just read a bunch of this mmathew's posts.

A negative Dim who doesn't seem to like anyone except Springsteen.

Good grief.

Hang on Sloopy is trash, just a payday same as Jeff Beck's Hi Ho Silver Lining.

Warren Zevon, whom I highly admired, and still admire, took a payday with Werewolves of London but it was much better than the above two. However it turned off many people to his serious work which is highly underrated and frankly superb.
