Barry Manilow is joining rock singer Neil Young in threatening to ditch Spotify over their decision to continue giving Joe Rogan’s podcast a platform despite alleged COVID-19 misinformation.
Young started another stereotypical left-wing movement against dissenting opinions when he referred to the music streaming platform as a “very damaging force via its public misinformation and lies about COVID” in a statement posted to his website.
For the record, his website was so outdated it’s called Neil Young Archives, and I was not even able to copy and paste the above quote because of its outdated technology.
“They can have Rogan or Young. Not both,” he declared, according to the BBC.
So, to nobody’s surprise, Spotify sided with their money-maker Rogan and Young’s music is now off the service.
“We want all the world’s music and audio content to be available to Spotify users. With that comes great responsibility in balancing both safety for listeners and freedom for creators. We have detailed content policies in place and we’ve removed over 20,000 podcast episodes related to Covid since the start of the pandemic,” Spotify said in response, according to The New York Times. “We regret Neil’s decision to remove his music from Spotify but hope to welcome him back soon.”
Barry Manilow, the “Copacabana” singer, is now following suit, which has earned him both praise and mockery on social media.

He’s still alive? Wonder how many people will drop Spotify if they can’t listen to their favorite Manilow song?
Maybe they can make an album together.
Next up Caetano Veloso will want off Spotify.

“I doubt you could find 3 has-beens that people could care less about.”
BOL!
There a lot of left wing fag has-beens out there needing any free publicity they can get!
He should also ask Spotify to remove the gerbil too.
Barry Manilow?
I thought that fag sucked a mile of cucumber and died years ago.
At GITMO they would play a repeat of Manilow over and over to torture the jihadis.”
If that isn’t a violation of the Geneva Convention, against political torture, it should be!
“The Geneva Convention is a standard by which prisoners and civilians should be treated during a time of war. The document has no provisions for punishment, but violations can bring moral outrage and lead to trade sanctions or other kinds of economic reprisals against the offending government.Mar 24, 2003
I’m going to start listening to Rogan.
Frampton has been very vocal about the size of his Spotify royalties, so if he's trying to act like its not about money, it's about money.
Oh, Mandy....you came and you went with a lickspittle, triggered leftist whine.....screw you, Barry...
Lol, Ouch... taking his whole 10 listens a month.
What a pansy he is!
