That word businessman again.
Gregory you said

"Let me ask you Couch. How many radio hits have you had? How many songs have you gotten placed with major artists."

You do not need to be a top songwriter to appreciate or criticise other peoples music. From the tone of your posts and the people you site as heros Gregory I kinda get the impression that you are obviously more interested in making money than producing great music. Nothing wrong with that but to some folk it is not the be all and end all.

Ranald Mcdonald is a billionaire all from hamburger flipping.
So if he wrote a book about cooking why should I buy it cause It will only show me how to flip hamburgers and make millions selling junk food not how to be a masterchef.

At the beginning of this thread I posted lyrics written by Jason Blume. As yet nobody has justified these as great lyrics. I have nothing personally against the man I just think he is overrated and put on a pedestal he does not quite deserve. Yes he has had tremendous success in different genres but I am half way through reading his book and have listened to his records and viewed his lyrics he does not impress me much.
