    “I’ve outdone anyone you can name – Mozart, Beethoven, Bach, Strauss. Irving Berlin, he wrote 1,001 tunes. I wrote 5,500.”

    “When I’m on stage, I’m trying to do one thing: bring people joy. Just like church does. People don’t go to church to find trouble, they go there to lose it.”

    -James Brown

    James Brown was a great soul music singing legend and the foundation upon which soul music was built.

    ““When I’m on stage, I’m trying to do one thing: bring people joy. Just like church does. People don’t go to church to find trouble, they go there to lose it.””

    Oh yeah? Well I can’t fucking stand his music. The tunes, the rhythms, the singing – all very infuriating, as if he was TRYING to say something, but just got on my tits.
    CHURCH? Brings joy? Please, get off this planet like the rest of you Christian-Aliens all should! Well, I guess ya finally did.
    Lose it? That’s for damned sure – cos you’re all fucking deluded if you have to go to church to seek answers, or, as he so eloquently put it (not!!!) – to lose it!!!!!!! To fucking LOSE it, man.
