I also pledge to never buy another K.W. song.
25-songs down. Hopefully a step towards depopularizing an @$$%*!* (his latest stunt was the straw, he's been a jerk for some time)

Atta boy. If I had any Kanye music, I would delete it, also. If Leno had any guts he would have cancelled his appearance last night. He just needs to go away. Surely he has enough money saved he could retire to an island somewhere. And Beyonce - never had much of an opinion before, but now I'm a fan. Classy move. I watched both videos for the first time yesterday. Beyonce made me want to get up and dance my 50-year-old butt off  , but the video was just 3 girls dancing - dancing very well, but just dancing. Taylor Swift's video was like a mini movie. In conclusion, I like Beyonce's song better, but I liked T.S. video better. |

I told the SO last night that I vowed to never buy any Kanye West music. SO asked, "Do you even know who Kanye West is?"
No, I don't. Never heard anything by him.
Is the Taylor Swift video the one where the neighbor kids talk to each other with signs in the windows? That's the only video I know of from probably the last 5 years.

I had no idea who Kanye West was. But then again, I had no idea of who Taylor Swift was.
However, I will point out that people at work today knew Kanye's name. Taylor was "that girl" whose name they couldn't remember.
Maybe there really is no such thing as bad publicity.

I can't bring myself to remove "Golddigger" from my music list...I still like it. Of course, its the only song I like from Kanye so this is my mulligan.
And yes, Kanye is a tool but his shock tactic even got the President to call him a jackass...so it must have worked. Was never about Beyonce...it was only about getting himself (any) publicity. I take it he wasn't up for any awards at the VMA.

I stopped listening to pop music right at about the start of this millenium, which coincides with the exact point that pop music started to suck azzz.

And, like you, the only music video I've watched the last 5 years are the two I watched the other night. Unless you count the countless time I saw "Thriller", "Beat It", "Billie Jean", etc. the day Michael Jackson died. |

You'll all be buying the Kanye-Swift "Duets" CD.

Then I'm glad it won. It is a video with an actual story, as opposed to the old "just show them singing" - concert footage cheap approach (unless you can get Courtney Cox in it) Granted, it's no Money for Nothing or Get You Back by the Beach Boys (a cute video for an obscure song), but hey, at least it is something. |

"Nazi romance" someone commented at YouTube.
Pretty funny, I thought.
