Yes, I do absolutely commend him for his charity, but that is hardly the point. He presents himself as a politically important figure...and he is a damn rock star! It is jaw-droppingly pretentious. Just because he has money and fame and he does good charity work this guy carries himself like a head of state. It is silly and disgusting.
My main point is that during all of this the music seems a distant second concern. I feel the early stuff was a little better, but still not my cup of tea. Ever since the 80's all I hear from them is standard commercial garbage, over produced, under written, talentless pop crap.
