Date: June 30th, 2016 8:48 AM Author: Vengeful sepia mad cow disease Enormously talented songwriter. Pretty polarizing tho, it seems. I have a lot of musically sophisticated friends who really, really can't stand him.
He's a top 5 artist for me. |

Past that I think his albums are uneven but the good songs are really good (e.g. New Amsterdam on Get Happy). (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3271039&forum_id=2#30823203) |

And when I told her she said, "I've never heard of him." I couldn't get over that and we broke up a month later because of the age difference.

I like how much he hates Sting though. |

Date: July 14th, 2026 12:16 PM Author: flushed church building ape I wonder from a Clique Theory perspective who exactly was his fan base back in the day. Jocks listened to like Bad Company and Foreigner back then. Women and non-whites liked disco. Nerds I assume were into prog rock like Rush, Yes, etc. I guess it was pure Loser Clique who liked Elvis Costello, Joe Jackson and stuff like that. Rock critics are always Losers so it would explain why they were critically acclaimed. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3271039&forum_id=2#49998921) |
