Which is more pathetic:

A very, very good rock act that doesn't know when to hang it up and retire gracefully, with dignity? The Rolling Stones for instance.

Or a no-talent, never-had-talent rock act that doesn't know when to hang it up and retire before they make everyone in the room even more uncomfortable with their lameness? The referenced personage above, for instance.

The no-talent, never-had-talent act.

I am not a huge fan of the Rolling Stones, but there is no denying that they actually contributed something worthwile to music unlike Bryan Adams. Their legacy doesn't live on the Robin Hood soundtrack.

I'll be honest with you, I love his music. I do. I'm a Michael Bolton fan. For my money, I don't know if it gets any better than when he sings "When a Man Loves a Woman".

My kid loves the animated horse movie "Spirit". That whole soundtrack is all Bryan Adams. It's not bad but the first time I heard it I was like WTF? Bryan Adams is still making music?

The fact that he's scoring animated movies about horses is proof positive that he DOESN'T rock.

Bryan Adams on MTV Unplugged is a very, very good performance. It's easy on the ears and the arrangement is spectacular.

Would you say that it "rocks"?

I listen to Elton John before a big lift...It's the calm before the storm.
