On the topic of greatest hits.

No, no, no, no, one thousand times over, no! You can should not be able to do it. It should be stopped. Making a greatest hits album when you have only been around for a few years and have only put out crap. It should be illegal. I was just reading the news and found out that the Spice Girls are releasing a greatest hits album. The Spice Girls? How is it that we have reached a point in the music industry that any fly by night, crap band can have a greatest hits album? Godsmack has a greatest hits album and they suck nuts. Creed has a greatest hits album and they suck the nuts Godsmack turns down. How the hell can this continue? Look I hate a lot of bands that people call classic, Led Zepplin, The Eagles, The Grateful Dead, yes I hate them all but at least, when they made greatest hits albums, they had been around long enough to deserve the title greatest hits. You retarded bastards in the music industry. Why don't you just do us all a favor and eat some red hot, molten poison, die, die, die! Stop making those horrible, So That's What I Call Music compilation albums and that creepy Kids Bop garbage. Grow some integrity and stop trying to squeeze every tiny penny you can out of every lousy band you sign to one of your shit-stain contracts. Above all, stop killing the once proud ideal of a greatest hits album, let bands earn them. Look at Creed, the Spice Girls, Godsmack, all that garbage. Don't you have to have at least one good song before you can be called great? While I am on the subject, nothing, and I mean nothing from Aerosmith's Pump album should have been allowed on their greatest hits album. After they recorded Janie's got a gun, they should have done the honorable thing and committed ritual suicide with a three foot long heroin needle. Also, the Red Hot Chili Peppers should never be allowed an award for any song with the word California, or any allusions to living in said state, Freaky Styley, Uplift Mofo Party Plan, Mothers Milk, and the original self titled and that's it everything else is garbage-amundo as Fonz would say. That is my music though of the day.
