That's a silly and superstitious belief.

@dayglow 

Attention seeking and irrelevant? What are you talking about? I was my opinion.

@roxy54 

I don't think common courtesy and respect for the dead is either silly or superstitious.

Would you tell the bride at a wedding that her dress is ugly?

Hadn't heard the news, always enjoyed the band and saw the group a few times. Glad to have the recordings I do...

I believe that if he was still alive and had just released an album that you disliked, you would (justifiably) feel free to say so. My comment was pretty mild. I simply said that I didn’t think that he was great. Few musicians are.

If you consider that an insult just because he has passed on, I will repeat what I already said; that is superstitious. I think it’s based on that old "only speak well of the dead" belief.

Nothing related to superstition—just a rather inappropriate statement in context. Please remove the post, whoever made it.
