It's only awful because it's a greatest hits album. You should have gotten her an actual Creedence album.

Yeah, it's really not about anything. The lyrics make no sense at all. I don't really think "Hash Pipe" is actually about smoking weed either, for the same reason.
I will say, I kind of wish we would go back to the days where, if you were at fault in an accident, you paid your part for the damages, your insurance paid the rest, and then you were even-steven. There wasn't this "surcharge" shit that punishes people financially for YEARS because of one mistake that can happen to…
I fucking love Billy Joel unapologetically, and think he was probably the first musical artist I loved, since probably literally 2 years old. My mom had An Innocent Man on record when I was a kid, and it was the first album I ever listened to so many times I memorized all the lyrics.
But if you're not a dick about it, your kids will grow to appreciate what you like.
Really? No one ever voices a disapproving opinion of an artist after high school?
I love a good Game of Thrones theory as much as anyone, and believe R+L=J is almost definitely true at this point, but this one is dumb and reaching for straws.
I didn't believe the Beatles part, but I also thought, as a kid, that every time you heard a song on the radio, the band was right there in the studio, playing the song. I always wondered why it always sounded exactly the same and they never made a mistake.
I don't get why some parents care so much about their kid's aesthetic taste. That shit will shake out however it shakes out; just focus on teaching your kid not to grow up to be a shitty person.
Weezer is a band that, after being familiar with most of their material over the years, I've decided I both love and hate simultaneously. They've released enough good, but also so much shit, and made so many bad decisions, that I feel I can both love and hate them in a sort of Schrodinger's way. The only other band I…
"Privileged class"? That MIGHT be a good argument, if it actually cost money to re-train your speech patterns or at least code-switch, but it is literally free. It simply involves…listening to people and adapting. I once had a thick Boston accent, which I caught no end of shit for, until I decided to make a concerted…
I didn't realize AVClub articles were a "positive opinions only" place. That must be why in every AVClub article, everybody is always in agreement on everything!
Well, as long as you think other people don't think you're condescending, that's what matters
Well, simply telling me I'm wrong has certainly proven me such! You need NO elaboration, because simply just saying the words makes it true! BARE ASSERTIONS RULE! I am surely defeated. And don't call me "bud". I'm not your friend.
Actually, I think it came off as me just not giving a shit. Also, a tip geared toward the greater Internet in general: someone not caring for something doesn't necessarily mean they're "offended" by it. That word is way overused.
Well drat, I guess that means I'll have to keep suffering your replies to my posts from here on out even though you think I'm a prick, because it's your duty, and just ignoring me would make you arrogant, right?
I'm not a HUGE Who fan, but didn't they basically become a joke after Keith Moon died? I always thought they were the "What Not to Do" to Zeppelin's "What To Do" when it comes to your legendary drummer going tits-up.
I do, for a lot of them. I stopped caring about sports long ago, and there is a line for most celebrities at which their ego makes them no longer tolerable to me.
I have never heard any of Kanye's music, and for all I know he might be a musical savant and I could be missing out on something that would blow my fucking mind (though I doubt it), but sorry, he's just so fucking arrogant that it turns me off from ever giving anything of his a chance.
I see you have no comeback.
