RE: Step Up



Please listen to my latest post "She Doesn't Love Here Anymore" in Country /Bluegrass and read the comment that CA put there.  I thought it was right on.  You guys just need to shut up and rate songs.  At least CA and Jack do that.  What do you guys do?

We rate songs, but also treat people nicely.  Big difference.

Ah Jack, I think they got you on this one.  I've seen a few just today.  Sorry pal.

hey flip-fart...it ain't no secret that people named john are often called jack and the john o'brien who submitted the song "sometimes she lives" is one in the same in my mind. People here know that...give them something they DON'T know.

if you ever did find out what my real name is...what good would it do anyway? It would still be just as funny that a stalker thinks they have located something valuable.

HEY...JACK O'BRIENS REAL NAME IS DOUG HARTMAN!!!!!

Would you warp your disgust any less in my direction? Would you take out a full page ad in Rolling Stone, basically telling the whole American world you are psycho because YOU know that JACK OBRIEN IS REALLY DOUG HARTMAN?

Get over me, get over you, get over your schoolgirl bully attitude.

" rambled on about signing names as opposed to anonymity, proudly spitting out that HE always signs his name, HE is not one of those who uses anonymity, then he tells us Jack is not his real name! "

It may be as you say Mr. ABC, I was simple saying that the above quote didn't read like something I would say. Parts of it maybe, but not spitting.

"The OTHERS?" you must believe yourself terribly important to refer to yourself as a group...


Please, I am not like you, and that does not mean I am broken.  So murder me for being different, oh fair one!  Ostracize me.  I am ugly.  You are beautiful.  My songs suck.  Yours are consistently number one on billboard. I am damaged beyond repair. I can't be like you, you won't let me.  Burn me now.  My jealousy overwhelms me.  Good grief.


"Nice?" 


Here's a sampling of the noice comments left on "Bad Baby:"


Only one is signed in any way(gee I wonder who by?)...


 


Subject is macabre! (DUHHHH!)






I see what you are tying to present here but it should have been done differently. The song as it is comes across horribly. (oh that was "Nice")






WHAT IS THAT? (Constructive, no?)






This song wants to be funny...it sure as hell isn't:) The lyrics and the composition just do not mix...this guy is a s happy as he can be and his wife just killed his child...what a loser. (Oh, that's just BRILLIANT! and Nice!)






This is a bit too rediculous to take seriously. I'd pack this one away for the campfire crowd. (Hmm, aren't a lot of the songs here too ridiculous to be taken seriously?  Why would one say that?  What's ridiculous about it?  How could it be less ridiculous?)






Can't say that I like the title or the use of it in the song for that matter. With completely different lyrics this could be a decent song. As it is, with these lyrics that is, I don't like it. Some of those phrases are absolutely dreadful! Have you ever heard a song that musically caught your ear but the lyrics killed it for you? That's what this song is doing to me. 2/5 (Dreadful, KILLED? well that's a nice thing to say!)






OK Bluegrass permits this sort of subject matter i guess, but Jeeze dude? I mean I play "rattlesnake bit the baby" on the fiddle, but I never thought about "Mama bashed the baby's head in" This is just too weird. Coffee Anon Two flames for being musically good. -3 for being jus plain WEEERD.


 


So it seems, the "Others" version of nice is indistinguishable from mine if not even more harsh and almost devoid of "constructive criticism." 


You said you are all so busy rating songs, I guess that's why Donna Sansoucie's "We Can Find a Way" has been posted for five days and has six ratings and two comments.  (Ok Seven now two are mine, one from day one, one from today just to count.)  This from the buch that is “Standing behind her with hands on her shoulders.”


You all are logging way too much time in the forums, and far too little on the ratings pages.  Your opinions about me are inconsequential.  If you don't like my comments on songs, debate them on the song pages themselves, so the artists will be able to consider your point of view as well.  Here it is just wasted on me, and I'm not listening. 


I am not listening because I am not broken.  You cannot fix me.  If you can't accept that, your ego had overtaken your id, and you are lost.  You don't know me.  Stop the broad-brushing!  People like you with your "we can help them, you know, make them like us" attitudes invented racism, discrimination, religious intolerance and culture destruction.  You perpetuate it every day with your judgments.  I will not be assimilated into the borg!


I am me.  Love me as I am.


CA

BTW jrhart_ I listened to your song again and I still like it. Actually I thought most of the feedback you got was pretty true, you might want to reread it, except the "sounds like a million other country songs" which was just a stupid uninformed comment.  Sounded like Al Krauss to me, if you know what I mean, and you probably do.  It was certainly treated better than most.


62 ratings here is nothing to be ashamed of.  It's not the 100 plus that others get somehow, but it's a lot more than most are getting.


I don't know if you're rating it up yourself or not, or if someone else is rating it down (seems high, SORRY ) but I see it's at 4.5 flames.  It's a four to me, but I'm tighter than most.  Only ever gave two fives, Barb Sharples and "real cowboy" got them.


Good job on it though.

I have never heard of the song "sometimes she lives" so that idea's out.  And if you are admitting your name is John then why the other posts that stated so strongly it wasn't?  Actually I thought you knew who I was, and before this got nasty, would be showing up at my door with some cool refreshments.  Next time you go out, think about who it could be.  You drive by me nearly every day John.  THAT is how I know your name, I'm a semi-neighbor for gosh sakes.  How else would I have known about the plaid shorts?  You didn't think of that?  So cmon now, think really hard, I know you can do it.

Coffee, that's a lot of ranting and raving.  It must be one large bee stuck in there.  Care to share your troubles?  Maybe we can review them and give you advise for getting over them.  Don't be shy now, we know you're troubled and just want to help.

all the plaid shorts do for me is refer me to an email I recieved from some yahoo who visited getadotlife and "needed" to tell me how much it sucked, who the hell did I think I was, blah, blah, and so-on-and-so-forth. aka=stalker.

So if that is your connection...you really aren't making points here.

Hi Normundy (jack's right, you are a stalker)


Funny that you and Anonon and Dizzy (and the list goes on) all use advise incorrectly.  Advise is a verb, yet you insist on using it as a noun in many of your personnas.  You mean advice.


I like your tactic: Lose, change name, Lose, Change name, lose, change name, lose, claim to speak for eveyone, lose again, change name.  Then go back to the bee thing because it's all you have.


Grow up.


CA

you shoulda checked it out before making up your story.. advise has only been used twice recently and once in a very old thread.  One by dizzy and the other by Normundy.  I am not those people.  Do you really think only one person writes stuff about John after all the people hes attacked?  Crazy man!

Tell me CA, how is that you, the most prolific of the review crew, seem to be a target for the forum passers-by? Wasn't it back in early June that an ugly lot ran the first act of this great taste, less filling debate?

There must be a "how-to" manual that neither of us has had opportunity to read.

You know it was an anon that got this whole thing kicked off again. Kinda funny when you think about it. Bunch of people with no names and faces, not a sound can be heard but there is some seriose dislike aimed at us.

Must be the work ethic and the high profile...easy targets.

Seems odd that newname and coffeecakes were the only two losers with nothing to do yesterday within minutes of one another...
OK so I'm the only loser with nothing to do right now. You're missing my point!

What would be fun to do is to set up comments on the commentors. Yea, we could rate the raters! How would the collective stand up against having what they say in the comments area scrutinized, disected, and placed on a flame scale. Now THAT would be worth giving up time for:)


Like those two old gripes in the Muppets(r) that shoot holes in everything they watch.


Hey the ideas just flow thru me, like pizza thru a hard drinker.

Alas, once again I find myself perusing the useless dribble that abounds without rhyme or reason of sanity not mine.  Not even the lovely Coffee gal I so admire answers my weary call on this day of reckoning.  I have been contemplating revealing all the cutting untruths I have shamlessly rammed through the guts of the collective, but not am I such a fool to boast integrity when I am without same.  You have caught me in a moment of contemplative absurdity, that I can admit, but I shall reveal no more.  I play the fool only because I am he, the one whose loathing for the world about me spreads its putrid wing in verse, song and most enjoyably, the forum proper.  When I recover from these moments of self-doubt I shall deny with vigor that any ownership belongs to this tired soul.  For who am I anyway?  I am not but one who lives in a catacomb of disgust and integral filth, but nay, I shall never admit that it was I, the other I, who let the cat out of the bag and nearly told all.  You have heard me, you have felt my wrath, you have swalled the same whiskey that drowns me now, and you know I am the one who will fight till the bitter end regardless of appearances.  This cannot be me I scream, but so sadly it is.  I shall now return to the Alabama sun and squash some tender insects.  Relief from my inner turmoil must come in some form.
