Kanye West, Fall Out Boy, Alicia Keys Are Out Of This World At Live Earth
'Music can change people's minds. We'll see what happens,' Fall Out Boy's Andy Hurley says.By James Montgomery, with additional reporting by Shaheem Reid
Del.icio.us Digg Newsvine Send Print You Tell Us EAST RUTHERFORD, New Jersey — "You all came to this concert," Melissa Etheridge opined midway through a smoldering evening set at the Live Earth concert in Jersey, "because you are Americans." (Check out behind-the-scenes footage, on-the-ground coverage, fan reactions, videos and more on MTV's new You R Here blog; watch Alicia Keys, Kelly Clarkson, John Mayer and more chat with John Norris at the NJ concert; and see performance pics of Rihanna, Linkin Park, Jack Johnson and more.) That's one way of looking at it. You could probably also argue that plenty of the 60,000 or so people who made their way out to Giants Stadium on Saturday (July 7) were concerned citizens of the world, plunking down their hard-earned cash to make a statement that the real fight against global warming begins today (though this is probably wishful thinking). Or perhaps everyone was just... | |
| | Can Bon Jovi measure up to the Rolling Stones? | | I know a few people who say Bon Jovi will never be as good as bands like the rolling stones. Granted, the stones have been around like, forever, but so has Bon Jovi. I can relate to Bon Jovi so much more than the rolling stones, maybe because I'm more familiar with their work. I know some stones songs, but still.
Do you think Bon Jovi could measure up to the rolling stones? so people who made their way out to Giants Stadium on Saturday (July 7) were concerned citizens of the world, plunking down their hard-earned cash to make a statement that the real fight against global warming begins today (though this is probably wishful thinking). Or perhaps everyone was just here to have a good time, to watch a bunch of bands, get sunburned, throw back some adult beverages and chuck footballs around the parking lot (this is probably reality). Because, really, for all the pre-show discourse (from both sides of the aisle) about just what the point of Al Gore's Live Earth concert series was, the biggest surprise on this Saturday in the Meadowlands was that no one — not the fans, the... | |
| | which do you like more Rolling Stones or The Beatles songs? or u dont like it?? | | hi people, how are you?
the question is very simple, and its about both famous bands around the world.
which do you like more? the beatles or rolling stones? which do you feel more comnfortable to listen? and why?
in my case, i like more rolling stones, i like the songs and the style of the band, the ideas they expressed; my favourite is "miss you" and "starts me up"..
whats about you?
thanks to respond,
have a nice day | |
| | Rolling Stones or Beatles | | Do you like The Rolling Stones or Beatles better? And who do you think did more for music and rock and roll? | |
| | | How many of you listen to The Rolling Stones | | I simply love The Rolling Stones. My best Rock Band!!What about you? What can you say about Rolling Stones? Which is your best rock team? What can you say about them? Which songs of them you like most? | |
| | | The Beatles vs. The Rolling Stones... | | OK,Two of the greatest bands of all time but which group is better? Personally, my favourite group in the whole wide world would have to be the Beatles. I think they were able to accomplish in 10 years (officially as recording artists) what the Rolling Stones have done in the last 46 years. The Beatles have more memorable tunes. Sure you've got RS songs like "Tainted Black" and "Satisfaction" but can those really compare to "Yesterday", "I Want to Hold Your Hand" or "I am the Walrus"? Cu-cu-ca-choo people!!! Lennon and McCartney were both able to be extremely successful after the Beatles break up. Who can forget "Imagine" and "Instant Karma" by John Lennon or "Live and Let Die" and "Silly Love Songs" by Paul McCartney? George Harrison had a couple of good songs like "My Sweet Lord" and "Got My Mind Set on You". Even Ringo was able to bust out some singing chops on "Photograph" and "You're Sixteen". I don't think Mick Jagger, Keith Richards or any other member of the Rolling Stones would be successful or as successful as solo artists. Each Beatle brought their own musical genius to the table and there's just no comparison between the two groups. I give the RS credit for having... | |
