Neil Young Demands Spotify Remove His Music Over ‘False Information About Vaccines’ (Rolling Stone)

Rock n roll will never die
The Needle and the Damage Done…
Hmmmmm, wonder who will win this hand wrestle
I could listen to Joe Rogan for 2 hours, 5 minutes of Neil Young is more than enough of his whiny voice and suicide inducing songs.
You got the first part wrong by about 2 hours, but you were only 4 minutes and 50 seconds off with the Neil Young part.
You win a Leonard Cohen Box-Set and a complimmentory rope that you can do whatever you want with.
moany for auld rope…
To be fair, he’s not giving an ultimatum, he’s not going up against Rogan, he said “I want all my music off their platform”.
While I do like Neil Young
Neil Young – 6 million monthly listens
Joe Rogan – 200 million monthly listens
Nuff said…
Who sold the most albums?
Who was actually most listened to?
Apples and Oranges bro…
Apples and Oranges
Totally.
But Spotify don’t make albums.
And as you say, Neil Young fans probably already bought Neil’s albums. Those albums don’t contain any new information.
Rogan will win out. Rightly or wrongly.
Now – if a few artists did it. Then there might be a chance.
Talk about giving a man enough rope to hang himself.
(Spotify’s Neil Young page said he has more than 6 million monthly listeners, and his top three songs combined have received more than half a billion listens on the service.)
Rogan claims he has 200 million listeners,but he makes lots false claims.
Yep, look it’s big balls guy. Viewer discretion advised.
….it’s kinda funny in that I never ever come across Rogan,he’s just not relevant in NY/LA maybe he’s big in Ohio or Florida..,,.and ,north Dublin but he does have a BIG fanboy on here,at what point do grow ups just stop fanboying it’s a bit cringy.
Can respect him for putting his money where his mouth is but as others have said, this isn’t a hard choice for Spotify!
Well Spotify paid Joe Rogan a lot, and they ony pay musical artists a little, which is pretty messed up.
I was going to touch on that, 6 million plays on Spotify probably nets an artist just enough for a cheap lunch!
Joe Rogan, while a gobpoo, brings a big audience so I’m sure he’s well worth the outlay for Spotify.
Old Fruit vs Rotten Vegetables.
One will suck… One will seed.
Who will succeed?
tip : (Neil Young)
Given that Young sold the rights to half his catalogue for $150m, you’d wonder how much leverage he has on this.

OMG…
If I was as old as Neil Young (No pun intended) and I could cash in on my legacy….
Nah, it still wouldn’t be enough for me to even tolerate Joe Rogan.
But hey, hey, my, my https://youtu.be/t4Y1wDdMYH4
….the needle and the damage done is the one he wants removed:)

Spot (ify) on Otis. Young is a sell out and now he is a cop out
Damien Hirst and the ART of the deal.
JR vs NY
Welcome to BS.
Sure where else would you get it?
I have absolutely no idea who Joe Rogan is.
I’m getting the impression that I’m better off that way.
Young was part of the Laurel Canyon crew who are super dodge. Saw him play in Kilkenny a few years ago and enjoyed it thoroughly. Would throw a pint of pish and poops at the stage after this.
