Just when you don't think it could get any worse, The Court Case about the song Blurred Lines was decided in The Gaye Family's favor, Hillary had a Press Conference and muddied the waters, eh, ah, blurred the lines even further, Whats-His-Name wants to give several million illegals full citizenship rights as well as unearned tax rebates, free education for everybody and who knows what. This month the Federal Government runs out of (Funny Money) and needs to raise the debt limit AGAIN! or they can't pay the bills. So, hang onto your Wooden Nickles as that is all you may have left. Can anyone say THE RISE AND FALL OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE!

I think it's bullshit and a travesty that they won the court case and that's all I've got to say about that.

ICYMI...
The Gaye family is now planning on suing Pharrell over the song "Happy" stating its ripoff of "Ain't It Peculiar".
The sadness in all this is that we can thank corporations like Disney for extending copyright to life of the author + 75 years.
I shudder to think what will happen if Pharrell loses the appeal over Blurred Lines and also loses with Happy. Mostly because "Happy" is nothing like "Ain't It Peculiar" despite a similar Motown beat, the chord progressions and melody aren't close. But for them to even consider it is insane - if any should be un-Happy it would be Barry Gordy for Motown ripping itself off so many times.

Kid Rocks first few cds were awesome. I play them every month. He's just crappy now though and has been for years. I want the old Kid Rock back.
