@kbdevo1962 It let's Richard express himself and not have to worry about the rest of the band. Much Like Oasis spiting now Noel can do what he want's solo curious to see how he will preform.
haha, love ashcroft. but did anybody see that movie ''get him to the greek''? can't help but to think that the character Russel was playing was inspired by the britpopers of the 90's. Richard in particular
I enjoy this song, big ashcroft fan. This song's ok. Video is tremendously off putting though, if they ever talk about when ashcroft jumped the shark id argue that it was earlier than this but when he points at the hobo at 1:38 is most definitely a low for what is obviously a fine career.
My comment was deleted :/. Oh well I know what guitar Ashcroft is using now anyway :P. I like singing this song while riding my bike as fast as I can; it's quite a funny sight...lol
to these 163 persons you´re invited to the facebook dedicated to Ashcroft:direccion :silvia Richard Ashcroft Bernal"for makes him coming to Barcelona, it´s a new facebook for the persons who loves him really,with his new adress with u.n.o.s. please be solidarious with me ¡a little group is born for him to come to barcelona!
Richards voice is unique and beautiful. He's voice gets better and better as he gets older. He's always had a beautiful, special voice. ''Iv'e said it all''.
wow! amazing video. Its just as beautiful as the 'science of silence' one, but in a different way.
The song is frigging brilliant as well, Richard Ashcroft is mighty sweet. He really knows how to create beautiful music, there's no one better than him in that departament.
Yeah, he also THINKS to be God. I like him, but in this video he's really hypocrite. He's rich, he's on an helicopter, etc., with beside images of poor people... but don't worry eh, "if you want it"... Maybe he feels to be one of the poors because he didn't shave... I remember him having caviar&champagne behind the stage of Live 8...
So Mavacheroba, let me ask..having caviar and champagne makes you a d$%k, after you just performed a benefit concert? He did the benefit concert didn't he? Should he have shipped the caviar and champagne somewhere? To a country full of starving people? Would that have made things better? No, they needed the money, the revenue from the tickets. He can afford to ride in a helicopter, and drink champagne, good for him, but it doesn't make him an ass.
"vervebabe", you can't see that this man is so full of himself.. he always had an attitude of victim: oh he cries, oh he's in despair... what's wrong in his life? He's got everything. Which were all those pains? A girl not going with him? Look at yourself in the mirror... The only problem was given by himself: the drugs. Then, "the drugs don't work"... when he (almost) stopped moaning about his condition (he didn't at all), he began to feel the saviour on Earth...
and yes, of course having caviar and champagne fo a "benefit concert" makes you a total hypocrite. Maybe you don't know that poor people don't have even bread... Are you really sure he "did the benefit"? Then putting images of him happy&rich beside poor one, it's really stupid. I think he should make music, not politics, 'cause it's clear it's not for him
The Drugs Don't Work was written about his dying father. And I'm aware of how poor people live, I've been on a number of trips for habitat for humanity,Mexico,Ghana. I've seen people who have worked for years to build their homes literally one wall at a time, I was in New Orleans right after Katrina, and since all the poor people of the 9th ward were left to die, I helped feed survivors who hadn't had food or water in days. I don't really think any of them were worried about caviar.
So you must be really stupid. You keep on speaking about caviar and you still don't understand what is clear. You saw poverty and you can't see how hypocrite is Ashcroft. Or are you a "Saviour of Earth" as him? You really sound that. An advice: open your eyes.
and I don't care what you did and saw, keep it for yourself, if it's true. I don't trust people who show how "good" they are and what they did for poor people.
And I don't care for who he wrote that song, you didn't understand the meaning. Of everything.
Tell to poor people that Ashcroft is eating caviar after he "sings for them".. They're not worried about his songs..but of no bread.
I think you're the hypocritical dumbass, but whatever..this conversation has wasted enough of my time. What's painfully obvious is that you're talking out your ass, I think you know nothing of poverty, where do you sit right now? And I don't need you to believe me, I could care less. The more you write, the more ignorant you sound. Bye Bye now, pathetic one.
I am done with your empty, feeble, attempts at logic, go eat your bread.
I tell you're pathetic, and you answer me I'm pathetic? mm.. I see you're offended.. truth offends.. And all those bad words? I'm not offended..try again.. Check who is hypocrite.. And you retire? Typical of those people as you.. You have communist ideas, as Picasso in this video, it's strange 'cause you're American...shame on you..
