A lot of people lost respect for him due to his politics and lying about his background. So, to the original point: what does it say that he gets tons more views than GN'R? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might just be the best music video of 2021... it's exactly what you think when you hear the words "Kid Rock".

Yea, if GNR's next video has Axl riding a middle-finger-shaped rocket into space, it would probably get more views than a lyric video. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Stynes: I think there is a correlation between talent and being able to put a video together. To paraphrase one of the greats, Michael Bay: ‘If you have talent, you have video’. It’s no good having talent if you can’t do the deed. So, the more talent and money in your arsenal, the better the video. So let’s say it’s a hugely successful song, like the one from Guns N’ Roses. It would have to have $30 million to put together a video which, as you say, you can only control in the way you want it. That’s just the way it is. While much of the video budgets go on pre-shot and pre-arranged footage, you’ve shot some incredible, filmic guerrilla-style videos for your bands’ most recent albums. Simon Kissner: In the case of U2, the most memorable video they’ve done is the one in which Bono has his head on the hood of a convertible and his arms and legs on the road. It’s just funny because there was a car with our logo on the back. Some of your videos are shocking – like the shot at the end of the video for One Tree Hill, in which you focus the camera on the crotch of a porn star – have you ever run into any problems with the censors? Kissner: It’s not something we’re too aware of. I feel that, like everything, censorship is a slowly creeping thing. The last couple of videos I’ve done were quite crude, but nothing too egregious.

Since someone brought up Kid Rock, I added my two cents. I was a fan of his and respected his talent. However, having to find out how he lied and really is a Trump supporter made me lose respect for him. That's all. My comment had nothing to do with GNR. Honestly, I could care less as to how many views he got on Youtube compared to GNR. Fact is he supported a person who wanted to take away my basic right if I were ever to get laid off from my job. He supported a guy that made fun of a disabled reporter that has a hand issue like I do. That bothers me more than anything!

He used the exact same hand gestures to mock a general earlier in the speech. The general does not have a hand disability. He had also used the exact same gestures to mock Ted Cruz in previous speeches, who also does not have a hand disability.

He absolutely did mock a disabled reporter, doing a deeply offensive and crude imitation of him. Why do you Trump idiots insist on lying about everything. You back an abomination of a human being.

You, like so many people in this country today, don't care about evidence, only what you want to believe and what you see on Twitter/CNN. When someone shows you evidence that proves your narrative wrong, evidence that you cannot refute, you resort to ad hominem attacks like calling people "idiots". Child.

People who back Trump are idiots. It's simple really. And you idiots are the last ones to talk about evidence. You morons think the election was stolen. You morons think the Jan. 6 insurrection was just a normal day, or a false flag operation. You morons don't believe in the vaccine or wearing masks. Trump is a racist piece of shit who mocked a disabled reporter. And you morons still back him. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussTCB Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Every so often I see the receipt in my email and I think about the fact that I gave GN'R a dumb amount of money to own a 7" single that I still won't have for another 7 months or so.
