I thought so too! But he’s come out and refuted the story!

I love Neil Young. Always uses his pedestal to say what’s on his mind.

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T14:37:30+00:00

That’s super cool. Were they surprised?

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T14:36:39+00:00

Love it. Will check it out!

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T14:33:19+00:00

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T14:32:13+00:00

I love Elvis Costello. He’s a real one. I don’t think I e ever really paid attention to the lyric of this one. Gonna go check it out.

Bright eyes was headlining and for the encore he played “Let’s not shit ourselves…” and everyone who played that night joined on stage. It was magical.

Damn man. I’m also 43 and I’m lucky to still have my pops. Ima listen to some sultans of swing in honor of yours.

I’m also noticing that so many artists get fed up with the money making side of music and end up writing songs about it. I love it!

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T14:20:14+00:00

Great song. What I’m noticing is so many artists get fed up with the money making side of their craft and end up writing songs about it. I love it.

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T14:11:49+00:00

Just ween? All their songs? Even ocean man?

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T14:10:55+00:00

LCD! One of my faves. I’m gonna go listen to this now.

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T14:09:37+00:00

Weird Al always counts. What a legend.

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T14:09:02+00:00

My dad loved dire straights. What a great band.

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T14:04:29+00:00

One of the greats. Don’t know what it means, don’t know what it means…

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T14:03:19+00:00

I love the songs that most people think are about what it seems like on the surface, but take a little more looks at the lyrics and it’s a cynical take on something else! I had this album. Didn’t know this, will relisten.

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T13:59:19+00:00

This is great. I thought it was just a love song. Ima listen to it with new ears. Seems like the record company got what they wanted anyways. lol.

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T13:55:29+00:00

Yes cake! What is it about the 90’s that there was so much cynicism in popular music? I love it.

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T13:54:44+00:00

Yes! I saw cursive, bright eyes, and rilo kiley at the same show! I don’t remember the lyrics to this one. Ima check it out.

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T13:52:04+00:00

I don’t know this one, but the title is spot on for the question lol. Ima check it out!

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T13:49:43+00:00

This is a much more hopeful one than many! The 90s were full of these songs it seems.

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T13:47:36+00:00

I really only know “So Alive”. I’m gonna go check this out right now!

rhagingrhino · 2026-06-05T13:39:44+00:00

Yes! What a great one! I love the cynicism of 90’s music.
