Chris Robinson Calls Taylor Swift "Horrible"

http://www.fleckingrecords.co.uk/201...-horrible.html

Kind of odd coming from a guy who has one top 40 hit, 20 years ago, and whose true claim to fame is being Kate Hudson's husband.

Swift writes her own stuff- not bad for a teeanager/twentysomething....

Chris Robinson does lots of drugs and doesn't clean himself.

Well considering what his idea of good is I'd take it as a compliment if I was her.

Re: Chris Robinson Calls Taylor Swift "Horrible"

What is it about this poor girl that elicits so much negativity from her peers? She's not my cup of tea - from a musical perspective, anyway - but she seems like a nice girl and she clearly has talent.

Yeah, well he's not wrong. Pop country is terrible.

Pop Country is the worst creation of mankind since the Flowbee and Crystal Pepsi. But she's far from the sole purveyor of it, or even the worst. I had to take my ex-wife to two Kenny Chesney concerts. Honestly, I would rather have root canals than be subjected to that crap again.

Re: Chris Robinson Calls Taylor Swift "Horrible"

Who is Chris Robinson?

Taylor Swift doesn't have the best vocals on the country scene, but she is very talented and reaches her audience better than anyone else. The only reason people some don't like her is because they don't understand her. She not trying to impress middle age men.

I suffered something as bad. I took my wife to a show once with both Tim McGraw and Faith Hill.

Wanted to see Hank Williams III this summer, but couldn't arrange it. Now that's country!

Re: Chris Robinson Calls Taylor Swift "Horrible"

If having a Top 40 hit is what defines talent than I've been looking at it wrong for years.

Re: Chris Robinson Calls Taylor Swift "Horrible"

(tongue in cheek)

The reason a lot of rappers and rockers don't like Taylor Swift? Her music is listened to by lots of young girls. Her music includes the undercurrent that girls should be treated decently by boys. If all those young girls grow up believing that, they might not realize their only purpose in life is to be a rapper's or rocker's (expletive).

(/ tongue in cheek)

Tickets to see III in a couple weeks here in Louisville. Come on down, great little venue and he puts on a great show. Of course now he doesn't have any talent because he's not pop country or Top40, but hey we'll let that be our little secret.

Re: Chris Robinson Calls Taylor Swift "Horrible"

The only exposure to Taylor Swift's music I've had is what I hear occasionally on the radio. I think every song I've ever heard from her sounds like it was written for ugly / unpopular teenage girls who sit at home dreaming that football team's quarterback would knock on their door and ask them on a date. It's drivel in the finest sense.

Plus, she looks like that thing from "The Dark Crystal":

Re: Chris Robinson Calls Taylor Swift "Horrible"

I dig Taylor and the wife and I sing with her songs on the radio.

So there.
