So much winning

And the orange man's campaign to RATM when told not to play their music: fuck you, I won't do what you tell me.

Haha, I suppose I was too late.

My wife showed me the lyrics to Sweet Home Alabama and damn if it didn’t seem to indicate that they’re left of their fans. Namely the lines

In Birmingham, they love the governor (boo, boo, boo!) 
\ Now we all did what we could do 
\ Now Watergate does not bother me, uh-uh 
\ Does your conscience bother you? Tell the truth

Which I read as “we don’t all love our state’s politics, but also don’t blame us for the shit done by a president from California”

That type of mindless embracing of something you're not really paying attention to, is typical right-wing mindlessness.

Check out the lyrics to Bruce Springsteen "Born In The USA" while keeping in mind that reagan used it in 1984 presidential election campaign rallies and even mentioned it in gushing, patriotic speech demagoguery, I believe. Never bothered to see what that song is actually about - Vietnam veterans abandoned by their own government and country, as the America they grew up in is decaying into the Rust Belt.

Trump playing Rage at a rally is on par with him asking Karl Marx to wake up and come speak.

God I wish.

I'm guessing Prince and Bowie probably did prior to the 2016 election.

Yes, but only to tell Trump to fuck off. He didn't stick around for our benefit, unfortunately.

You see, he's just like his father...

Re-appropriation is the name of the game. These jerks don't really make much art for themselves; a movement 60+ years old really should have an identifiable subculture with its own stuff by now. Instead, they're very good at acting like a bunch of kleptos, running with what they can.

Ok the amount of people voting you need to learn how to do a Will then cuz special types of Executors are appointed for after death to make such decisions. This is pretty common with people with even a moderate amount of success particularly if they have any type of asset or property (intellectual included) to have looked after that becomes part of an estate.

I had the same thought initially. I haven't read the article, but assuming this picture isn't fake they might be including artists from his last two campaigns. Rogers did in 2020, Bowie and Prince died in 2016

My guess is… they got some one managing trumps twitter to post it so they could boost sales.

Because. I mean. Who’s actually listening to nickleback? And not, like, just at a strip club?

Brian Wilson and Al Jardine have been pretty openly against the Orange One using their music. But yeah... Mike Love's gonna Mike Love. Not sure why Bruce Johnston still associates with him.

No, sorry they've all kicked the bucket...David Bowie and Prince died in 2016, and Kenny Rogers died in 2020.

Edit: Oh, now I get it.

Otep - Kult45

Slipknot - We Are Not Your Kind

I am lord, ya ya ya

I also had never heard of Lorde until South Park lol. I didn't hear my first song by her IRL until like 2011/2012 with Royals.

Even less Elton John 😂

Wow, Prince must really hate him, huh?

Isn't there some minutiae with that? I recall for sampling music (voices, that is), you need permission from both the artist and the record company. If you can't get the record company, the artist can come in and do a recording just for the purpose.
