Let's not assume Covidians were rational people.

It doesn't help that Young is a gaping vag who's prone to these feminine outbursts.

I don’t like Neil Young because his voice sounds like a whiny bitch. Who can stand that shite.

Meh. I mean, as the op said the guy is estimated to have lost $300k during the time of the boycott, so he “put his money where his mouth is”….that figure may be insignificant to him, but he was still willing to forgo it. He also realized that other platforms where his music was available where issuing similar content that he objected to, so he came to the conclusion that his protest wasn’t having the desired effect, only inconveniencing his fans who happened to use Spotify.

I guess some of the zealot boycotters like the anti-bud light folks feel like they are supposed to take it to their grave with them. That group also happens to include many of the same folks who can get past the idea that a musician may have political leanings they don’t like.

he's one of the most acclaimed songwriters in history. If you don't like it, fine, but his music is the tits.

Neil Young is still alive? I thought I saw Eddie Vedder give a eulogy.

You can be a good songwriter and have a voice that sounds like a whiny bitch.

His voice is his voice. Not sure he ever had a say in that. Saying that his God-given voice sounds like a "whiny bitch" seems oddly personal if all you are doing is saying that you don't enjoy his music.

It's not really selling out though. That's kind of what he says it is in a since, but his original reason for leaving Spotify was based on 100% incorrect information. Everyone knows what the real misinformation was and has been at this point. Like many others he's accepting he was wrong without admitting it. No one wants to admit when they were duped.

Bob Dylan agrees. Great songwriter but one of the worst singers ever.

You can disagree with his politics or whatever all you want, but this is the dumbest post on the OT in weeks.
