I knew it was only a matter of time... how many musicians does this make that have attacked McCain for using their songs:

Did you read all the comments left on that EW link?

They're upset at Heart and are boycotting them for saying something.

It gives you a little sense of the "weather" outside of BWW, doesn't it?

Chilly. Very chilly.

When are Kool & The Gang or Earth, Wind & Fire going to do the same?

But there are also comments in defense.

These two old cows should be glad he played their song. When was the last time anyone listened to Heart? At least this introduced the group to millions of under-40s. I just hope this doesn't embolden the The Bangles. We don't need to return to "Eternal Flame".

No, they shouldn't be "glad." And they don't need the money (of which there is none) or the negative (yes, negative) exposure. There's nothing to be grateful about, at all.

The Republicans should play by the rules here or get a nice fat lawsuit slapped on them.

And if all the lemming Republicans in the U.S. stopped buying Heart albums because of this, it would have little or no effect on them at all. They've been in the "best of" bin for years now. How could this hurt them in any way?

I'm glad they respectfully objected, and I hope the Republican Party respectfully complies. Immediately.

Heart is actually currently on tour and was seen by lots of the younger generation in the NY/NJ area a mere two weeks ago.

Cows? Goth, you really are a pig.

Plus, as long as there is an American Idol, there will be someone around to butcher "Alone."

No one is above the law... not even the Republicans :)

I'm so glad! I knew those two fabulous ladies would not approve!

"These two old cows should be glad he played their song..."

Yeah, Goth...that's pretty tacky, and rather beneath you...or so I thought

I used to at least glance at your replies, for a glimmer or two of insight....me trying to other understand the other side of the argument.

But you just seem very angry, bitter, and completely disrespectful of others.

Windy, why such a hypocrite? If you read these boards on a regular basis, you see a lot worse than what I wrote. But you, like most other posters, only confront it when it's me. There really is a pile-on mob mentality on this board.

The "cows" attracted, along with Journey and Cheap Trick, a crowd of 23,000 to Saratoga NY a few weeks back.

Most of the reviews said they were the highlight of the evening.

You must be new here.

That made me laugh out loud madbrian! Well I am headed to a cabin in the Rockies for the weekend and now I want to take some Heart up with me! These Dreams is one of my favorite songs.

I'm under 40 and I love Heart, too! Ann has always been one of my favorite vocalists.

So, if you're a "pig" for calling someone a "cow", what are you for calling someone a "pig? A goat, maybe?

[jrb_actor]

A "dom"

I love Heart. I am nowhere near 40.
