I like Sheryl Crow, I just don't like her politics.I used to feel the same way. But here's the gist. She dislikes Bush because of what he stands for, yet, we as music fans, are asked to separate the musician from the politics. Well, when one so blatantly combines the two, it makes it very difficult to remain objective, especially since this is the SECOND time she's pulled the political t-shirt in the past two months. The first time was on GMA when she wore this:
Note the blatant disrescpet for PRESIDENT Bush by calling him Mr. I suspect she does not consider him the 'real' President.
She sure believed in Klinton's criminal bombing of Yugoslavia.
People who didn't suffer thru this "show" missed two great things.
1. The sweet acceptance speech given by the winners of the Contemporary Inspirational award. To the ocean of Rap artists and bored record execs, they ended by saying "We know you don't know who we are, but thank you for this."
2. Sheryl Crow begging the audience to "Think thoughts of peace this year," just before introducing Tobey Keith and Willie Nelson, who proceed by singing the coolest PRO-WAR song I've heard in years!
Most people missed the Tobey Keith song because the producers dumped it to the very end.
