Don McLeans American Pie, Rolling Stones Brown Sugar etc... all on the cancel culture chopping block

New York Times Thought Police Ask: Should Classic Rock Songs Be Toppled Like Confederate Statues?

Trump foresaw this growing to include Thomas Jefferson who recently was cancelled at a NY museum, but who thought it would include Rock & Roll?

Been listening to a lot of JLL lately. No tellin’ how big he could’ve been if not for the scandal. Screw the NYT and that whole city for that matter.

Go ahead, make a banned list.

Last time the media did that, with Clear Channel pulling tons of songs after 9/11, I found a bunch of shite to listen to I wasn’t aware of before.

No, but the New York Times staff should be toppled like Mussolini.

I’d just love to put “An American Trilogy” on in a Portland Woke bar just to see their reaction. Honestly An American Trilogy might be the most beautiful song of all time.

Elvis live in Honolulu with one of the best performances of all time: YouTube

EDIT: When Trump or DeSantis win in 2024, this better be the song they play as just the biggest “frick You!” to Leftists ever. Build it up and don’t walk onto the stage until 3:30 of the song and just do a montage of the campaign on the screen before that.

The Maoists are following the traditional American evangelical moralist panic playbook right down to trying to cancel rock music.

What did Elvis Presley do to these people?
Do they understand he died August 16, 1977?

Nah. They posted a dumb, not-particularly-insightful op-ed by this woman who is evidently an idiot.

It's a legitimate question: can the art be separated from the artist. And I think society over the eons has answered with a decisive: YES.

Last time I checked, all the wokesters still listened to plenty Chris Brown.

If they want to cancel someone iconic, let's talk about Bob Marley. He was hideously violent and not great to women.

quote:

Jerry Lee Lewis
This is the one I think it could serve to hold more to task. Despite his piano chops, "The Killer" might actually have been that of at least one of his wives. This guy is a scumbag. I can still enjoy his mindblowing solo on "You Win Again", but I don't love the idea of him profiting off of my listens. He has paid basically zero price for his ill behavior.

The vast amount of woke garbage to use for the next election keeps growing larger and larger . . .

They will never learn.
