everybody here talks about how blues should be listened by everyone. let the musically ignorant have their justin beiber and miley cyrus. the blues is too precious to be shared to the masses. let those souls who desire come to the blues......

@fsffsa5325324 i like it. linkin park has always irritated me. to couple that dislke with a dismissal of a friend cuz he's never heard of john lee.that's harsh. but i like it.

@jazzyjane58 i hear ya. but music like this is alive & well. the real shit too. as for miley & bieber they are just what is popular now. they're just giving it a shot too. popular music is mainly about marketing so it cant really be compared to this. i aint dissin u man, but i love this shit, i love gaga bieber etc. & i love extreme music (electronic & metal). just be open to it. dont hate on other genres friend. music is music. peace.

@jazzyjane58 Who the hell cares abouth this shit? WHO CARES? We just love the blues, I don't give a damn bout spears & co. why do you care bout theese guys or even mention them? What for people? Come on! Start listening to the blues and stop judging what is good or bad, right or wrong. A bluesman is not a judge. Let everybody listen to what they like to, it doesn't make a lion look like a cat, for those who have eyes.
