And btw, a doctor doesn't have to accept a patient. So thank you for not seeking out my services. I enjoy helping my patients stay alive and learn how to improve their lifestyle. Capische!

Very unique and distinctive voice. Quite a hard start to life, wouldn’t wish what happened to her on anyone.

Liked the track Empire

I'm a kid of the 80s and 90s.
This was my era.
Early Metallica, Stone Temple Pilots, Alice in Chains, Cyprus Hill, Snoop, Suicidal Tendencies, the list goes on.
I never got into her music, but I respected her backbone and for standing up to what she believed. I think she had a beef with Bono at that time because she thought he was a sell out

^I think STP has held their relevance more than any other 90's grunge band, with Alice in chains coming in at a close 2nd.

Pretty amazing there's some vitriol for this woman....who knows what she was going through, she may or may not have been 'odd' but at least she wasn't wrong about the Pope thing, for example, even though many ppl were and still are brainwashed: any institution that defends pedos is just evil, period (that should go w/o saying), never mind pretending to be angels. Such sick hypocrisy.

Anyway, RIP.

I always got her confused with this chick for some reason. Good for O'Conner, because "Zombie" was a pretty good song

Ya, she was another one gone too soon (Dolores O'Riordan).

Maybe if you're an American.
In my country for example she had 5 hits (although nothing compares to you was of course her biggest hit)

nazali · 07-31-2023, 12:04 PM

didnt really like her, I dont like singers who try and be politicians or bring politics into what they do, either be a politician or a singer

did not like her one bit, the SNL sketch was weird again, keep your weird shti to yourself, I'm not a Catholic BTW, I think she went islamic and like OMG, she just gave me a headache.

They say don't speak ill of the dead ? Well as a DJ I can give my opinion her music sucked balls

Not as weird as catholic clergy abusing kids on a very large scale....
It just took about 2 decades for the western world to catch up to that knowledge....
I can't see how this is a bad thing trying to bring this to the worlds attention, even if you're a singer and not a politician.

I mean it's not that she impeded on persons lives and/or businesses with her protests or vandalized other peoples properties like what you see among current day protests by some of the climate activists or blm activists etc; she used some TV time she got to say some words and to tear up a photo....people were free to switch channels...
I don't see the harm in it, unless you approve of the catholic church clergy abusing kids..

You are correct. When your practice is at capacity then they have to go to the ER. The system sucks. There is a great shortage of medical professionals. But don't get me going...

I think it's time to end this distraction from the original topic.

I just stated my opion and some schmuck decided to question my morals. Still doesn't change the fact that I don't like her music, and I probably never will.

Careful there.

bagekko · 07-31-2023, 04:18 PM

Never knew Prince wrote that song, thanks for the info 40yrs too late lol.

It may be cause I am a narcissistic AH, but I still find it hard to understand why the need to sympathize, empathize, and only be positive anytime someone passes, especially if you don't know them personally. I'm not trying to be a jerk, I'm serious, wife says it is one of my biggest character flaws.

Almost all famous people who pass I don't give two chits about, and in many cases like this one good riddance, even if she passed a week after her hit song I could care less.

I'll tell you what I understand.

I understand that judging by your responses and attitude it's very likely that your care is as worthless as your opinion.

I also understand that the ignore function works well.

Understanding is better than education.

floridaorange · 08-05-2023, 05:30 PM

She rocked. I really enjoyed this. I think she was at her height when I was in middle/highschool and I wouldn't have been mature enough to appreciate her. Rest in Peace.
