Good job, little Vasco. Maybe it's because we're not young anymore... anyway, we're saying sensible things. By the way, we understood that you like Vasco. That's all you say in the comments. Any other arguments?

Alright Giorgio, I know, I made a mistake writing illumini. In the heat of the moment...

so there’s no point in comparing them even as a joke. period, that's it. it's objective. and then Giorgio, you cite "Shiny Happy People," which is the little you know about R.E.M. Dear Robi, don’t compare R.E.M. with Bon Jovi, that’s not subjectivity. You may not like them, but honestly it’s impossible to place them side by side objectively. "Neither band has done anything fundamental." Unfortunately, Robi, I have to reconsider my opinion of you. And Giorgio, since instead of responding seriously you keep making fun of me by pointing out spelling mistakes (by the way, "ilummini" has only one "u"), you’re just coming off as annoying and childish. I, however, with a light heart, trash Bon Jovi and praise R.E.M. These are two completely opposing ways of making music, of experiencing success. R.E.M. has millions more facets compared to Bon Jovi, which remains a good pop band pretending to be rock, liked by teenage girls and has faded away a long time ago. I compare Bon Jovi to the 90s Take That. Only, I actually like Take That.

brainless chimpanzee... I asked you if you read cioè or Top Girl as a joke... based on how you were expressing yourself. It’s not that I read cioè or Top Girl, got it? Before you start shooting down everything and everyone, at least read carefully and try to understand the comments. Popularity is absolutely not an indicator of song quality. Absolutely.

I talked about innovation, maybe? I don't think so. Importance, originality, and taste, perhaps. I'm glad you know the music critics. Good company. Keep teasing me if I make mistakes in writing... like children. Well, you’re happy. After all, you listen to Bon Jovi, right?

Listen, I don't like your way of writing, not just because the list of songs is ugly (which I've used sometimes too), but precisely because you don't tell me anything about the songs. Then I repeat, I said I don't like how you write. What did I say about Queen? Nothing at all. So I don't see what your problem is. I'm not under anyone's thumb. In my reviews, I don't think it's fair to say that I don't talk about the albums; in fact, in almost all of them, I mention the songs and include some trivia or whatever else. Then there are reviews that, without saying a thing about the album, made me want to go listen to it. You react like a child. Because I say I don't like how you write, you come back to me saying, "your reviews don't say anything, I don't like blah blah blah," like kids do. By the way, you're saying untrue things; we're not even in the realm of opinions. I don't know, you figure out how to reason. I'm not forcing you; heaven forbid you become a puppet or a caricature too. ;o)

Of course everyone sniffs. Even Pierangelo Bertoli used to sniff before concerts. After all, he could manage to walk for a quarter of an hour.

But I’m not denying that 1) bon jovi is liked 2) bon jovi sells 3) record labels believe in bon jovi (as a consequence of points 1 and 2). But absolutely by consequence does not mean that 1) bon jovi makes quality music 2) bon jovi leaves a mark in the history of rock for the quality of his music 3) bon jovi will be remembered alongside the greats of music. I'm not denying anything that you say. It's just that the importance of a bon jovi lies in the number of records he sells, while the Beatles or Pink Floyd (to cite bands that have sold millions and millions of copies) have myriad reasons to be part of the Olympus of rock music. That’s all.

But excuse me, do you have a hair-trigger? Broken families? Working? Precisely because Vasco is rich thanks to his work and our money, we have the right to express our opinions and criticize his work and his life. Go work and take care of your family. Now let’s see, is it that you can’t say anything negative about Vasco? And then look, it's not like just because I write on this site, I'm not doing anything else in life. Also, it only takes me 3 minutes to write a comment like this. Rest assured, I have plenty of time to do other things. But look at you. This is crazy. Are you perhaps Vasco's illegitimate child and he supports you? That would explain this defense.

jilles, believe me, I have all the Dream albums. But you, who went to comment only on the reviews of the Dream, what are you doing going around criticizing those who criticize them? According to you, why do we criticize them if we don't listen to good music? You're quite presumptuous. And what would you listen to, Your Excellency? Don't worry, music exists even without the Dream.
