I don't think I can find any semblance of pity, empathy, kindness or good will in my heart from Mr.Richie.
No offense Alex, but none of these are attributes exhibited particularly often in your ILM posts. In fact I'm hard put to name many phenomena outside of the Killing Joke that you have voiced approval of.

Exactly! It is the perfect video, the touchstone that will never be equalled in this cynical age.
I really don't understand how Lionel came to be listed as "indefensible" when he wrote so many great songs with the Commodores and his solo stuff was pretty good too.
Still, it did always piss me off that Q listed Can't Slow Down as one of the top ten greatest Motown albums.

Then, typically, you're not really paying attention. I have posted favorable comments about a myriad of artists.

Also, I like the name Lionel. I think more people should have that name.

I was a rockin' HS senior when Can't Slow Down was at its peak, and hated it until I realized that that tape and Van Halen's 1984 were completely ace despite the cheese and were furthermore causing me to have an intense sexual attraction to Stephanie C., my grade-rival and nerdy girl friend since 5th grade. Never thought of her as cute before I saw her in a bathing suit awkwardly singing along to "All Night Long (All Night)," and then became a little obsessed with her. The power of pop music!
Um, and suddenly revelatory breasts.
