Major Music Stores
Ghost in You says
WALMART: First off, anyone who shops at walmart is a communist. Anyone who works at Walmart is a short bus communist, and every walmart in the world should explode taking all the communist with it....
except of course the one right down from my house... they save me a ton of cash on groceries.....
CD's BOUGHT FROM BIG BOX RETAILERS: They are typically garbage anyway (insert Brittany Spears, country music pop and the latest release from the last 5 kids who got picked on in High School for being in the Glee Club ... errrr I mean American Idol contestants). Besides, most Walmart shoppers and their kids would buy CD's full of static if Miley Cyrus told them too. So consider this, the money made from the purchase of those crappy CD's also fund the indie bands so many of you self appointed Gen Y intellectuals enjoy.
Without Brittany cash, you never would have heard of "Radio Head"... although, that would be a good thing... so chew on that Gen Y!
COVER ART WORK: Cover Art Died in the 70's, everything else is pretentious garbage picked by some annoying lead singer who thinks that he/she is the most intrinsic and intelligent person to address the worlds emotions. Often times however, it's just pent up insecurities about ones own music that forces the artist to add some sort of intellectual value to their efforts by getting a hep photog or artist they frantically find on Google or through their Coffee House Petulee wearing pot smoking (I like pot smoking for the record, even though I can no longer partake because of the job) suede wearing mushed up hair having twit friends.
However, what do I know, I havent bought but maybee 15 CD's in the past 10 years, and I'm 40, which makes me uncool.. the opposite of Hep.... I think.....
LINER NOTES: (Sorry CodyB & Robin, I know I am taking a hit here on your likability list) but we have never met the people that get thanked. Besides, the thanks given are at best, honest thank you's not meant for you or me the purchaser anyway, and at worst, are pathetic ass kissing efforts to secure future work or favors.
The person that wrote the song, is more concerned with the $$ than the credit, and no one cares who wrote the damn song anyway, people just want to tap their foot to it. And if your going to include who took care of "Sample Clearance", you might as well toss in the temp answering the phones at the studio that one tuesday you showed up with your "enterouge" and trashed the place.
The only thing worth a fart is the lyrics, and those can be gotten from the music, and if you can't understand the lyrics while listening to the music, then the music is garbage .. so stop listening to it.
I am looking forward to the day when "Big Brother" can tell EXACTLY what we are watching on TV and listening to on our music players. Finally we will have Northern Exposure on TV 24/7 and Jon Denver on every channel.... and the world will finally be at peace.

We the undersigned humbly request your support in raising awareness and funds for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation in hopes to provide a cure for Type 1 (Juvenile) Diabetes.Over the course of 2009, over 150 musicians and artists from around the globe such as Weezer, Creedence Clearwater Revisited, Mike Love of The Beach Boys, Collective Soul, David Coverdale of Whitesnake and Filmmaker Bryan Singer came together to create an amazing charity holiday album to help raise funds and awareness for a cure for Type 1 (Juvenile) Diabetes. Currently, the album is available online and at some stores, but we need this album to to become available to as many consumers as possible in order to make an impact on both the awareness and financial fronts.
Type 1 Diabetes affects hundreds of children around the world every year. There is nothing that can be done to prevent contracting the disease, and currently, there is no functional cure. Children with Type 1 Diabetes endure finger pricks for blood sugar tests every few hours (day and night) as well as 7-10 insulin shots per day JUST TO STAY ALIVE! The lives of families dealing with Type 1 Diabetes are changed forever.
The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) is committed to raising funds and awareness to help find a cure for this terrible disease. This album, JDRF Hope for the Holidays is a compilation of over 20 Holiday songs in ways you've never heard them before.
Your support of this project would be enormously appreciated. As more time goes by, more children fall victim to this dreadful disease. With your help, a cure could be available within just the next few years.
We thank you for your time and consideration and look forward to fighting alongside you in our battle against Juvenile Diabetes.
