DC Tom Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 Anything Gordon Lightfoot should probably be banned since he changed his name to Usama Islama or something like that and moved to France and bad mouths America. Screw him. He still had one good song: "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzpatrick"
Rob's House Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 I don't get why anyone would put Gordon Lightfoot in this thread. I mean, I know he's Canadian, but he's a very good song writer. Anything Gordon Lightfoot should probably be banned since he changed his name to Usama Islama or something like that and moved to France and bad mouths America. Screw him. Are you sure you're not thinking of Cat Stevens?

LeviF Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Stairway to Heaven Its a downer and I hate how everybody is expected to stop whatever else they were doing and go into worship mode whenever it comes on. Is this going to turn into an unpopular music opinions thread? I'm in - Zeppelin sucked ass.
4merper4mer Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Are you sure you're not thinking of Cat Stevens? He's a lot like Gordon Lightfoot but a different dude. He also had a lot of personal issues in the 70s like Lightfoot. Remember: in the 70s not a lot of people had personal problems like they do today. That's why people get Stevens and Lightfoot mixed up. Stevens issue was that his daughter Mary Stevens-Carpenter starved herself to death. He was widely seen as a bad father for letting this happen.

Stevens issue was that his daughter Mary Stevens-Carpenter starved herself to death. He was widely seen as a bad father for letting this happen. You probably didn't know this, but in the 70's when no one else really had any personal problems (as you said), Lightfoot and Stevens actually did have some issues and, as I have been told, the two collaborated at a bar in Greenwich Village to write the first few verses of what later came to be known as "Bridge Over Troubled Water" (they actually wrote it on the back of the bar menu and titled it "We Have Problems Too"). So you are partly correct in saying Stevens had some problems but so did Lightfoot.

Buftex Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Okay, but here's an honest question: you can choose one song to be rid of forever. Do you choose this stupid Friday song...Or this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOOs-MqDOI0 LABillz, I don't normally agree with you on a lot of things....but I gather you have pretty good taste in music....maybe I missed something..but you really don't like this song? I think it is a great tune.
