Well after having stolen Prince's "Purple Rain" (don't remember what it was called at the moment, but it was one of his latest singles), he decided to give the composer credits this time. At least that's an improvement evillol

people can cover whatever song they like, without asking the writer or original performer.


all the writer/performer can do is sue for the the royalties due them from the cover version, and since that's mechanical up front, there's nothing to sue for, thereby making it legal for any artist to cover any song.

He was the lead singer of an Irish boyband called Boyzone.

To put it another way, he's the Irish Justin. (but I'm probably doing Justin an injustice).

He's also the biggest hypocrite in the industry after Elton John. The criticisms he comes out with about other pop acts. They ALL apply to himself tenfold.

Ronan ACTUALLY had the bottle to say that he thought Boyzone were a breath of fresh air to the industry. NO, you were the fucking antichrist, triggering off ENDLESS bland cover songs (90% ballads) while sitting on stools. The Osmonds sounded like the fucking Sex Pistols in comparison.

It is a phenomenal song, but this slimy wee prick will destroy it with his smarmy vocals and fake emotion. Cock

Ellie you got me rolling! HAHAHAHAHA!

The Osmonds...reminds me of such a lovely gesture of my mom back in the days...she bought for me and my sister the "Popfoto" coz she read on the frontpage there was a poster of The Osmonds and David Cassidy. You must know my sis had it goin' for the Osmonds and yeah me for David (oh my! wink What my mom didn't know was that BOTH were printed on the same piece of paper...one at each side.
So as my sis and I shared a room, my mom played Salomo: one month one side up the next the other...

No my mom couldn't afford to buy 2 and we were happy already she bought if for us!

Just sharing as I'm still laughing about yours smile

Love
Lily
