funny how famous dudes seem so beautiful to certain people. Don´t get me wrong, I love what Pete has done, but in almost every every youtube clip some weird looking guy or some not handsome at all guy all look so very good. I mean, he´s not beautiful in a common sense, but what makes him beautiful is his way of creating music. btw I´m totally drunk right now-.....

You gotta appreciate the irony of "summertime blues," about teenage complaint for having to get a job during summer vacation, juxtaposed with footage of poor African Americans laboring in the fields picking cotton.

@1StarProductions Eh, I still think Pete was good looking.

@1StarProductions Wow. It is so trendy to hate Jews. You are jealous because Jews are far more intelligent and competitive than others tend to be, And j0 mama.

[1StarProductions]

@morninggloryseed Ok I'll explain Amy Winehouse. She was a Jew.

[morninggloryseed]

@1StarProductions

Explain Amy Whinehouse.

Pete doing a pretty good job trying to differentiate the modern Rock of his day from it's blues roots--not an easy thing to do, but the truth is blues mighta came and went without rock to blast it off into orbit--the blues can never be truly separated from it's 'baby' , rock and roll--nor should it be equated as the same thing. Rock is to Blues in some ways like Blues is to .--jazz is to ragtime.Tthe main difference is that Rock became a predominately 'white' music very quickly.

@1StarProductions I don't think "looks" matter that much if you're in a band.......a solo artist yeah, because you're always in the "spotlight"

[Nellynoodlebums]

lol he said 'coloured oops'

[1StarProductions]

@455Transam I don't personally think he's ugly. He's actually quite beautiful. I'm speaking for the sick society we now live in, with record companies who only sign "good looking" talent. You know what I'm saying...he would never make these days. He would be some footnote playing in obscure pubs and bars, even though he's 1000 times more talented than all the puppets in today's top 20.

@1StarProductions

Nah... it's that type of attitude from everyone that makes talented people that don't happen to be "beautiful" decide to do something else. It's not the kids that sign themselves, it's the record companies that use these talentless children as an exploitation device to SELL sex. It's got NOTHING to do with music, it's sex.
