Roger is an a**hole

I think he called Roger Waters a homo, that is uncalled-for.

What fixxy said...

I think everybody, even Roger's detractors, would admit that he's a genius when it comes to writing songs & lyrics. Once Syd was no more, the song-writing teams of Gilmour/Water/Wright (singularly and in any combo) put out some pretty damn good stuff (Which is why we seem to be coming back to these boards).

Don't be so hard on Roger. It's his life to live the way he chooses. He owes us, his fans, nothing.

He was a major major part in the writing of my two favourite albums of all time ever in the entire world (animals and wish you were here) so I can't really complain really no matter how vast his ego is.

Roger Waters is one of my favorite lyricists. The Final Cut is especially great - people who say that Roger is distant, a prick, etc. should listen to that record, 'cause he lays it all out for everyone to see, just what makes him tick. Any artist that can do that without shame should be given a medal, I say.

Plus Roger is commendable for doing exactly what he wants to do, when he wants to do it. So be it if he broke PF up - it eventually would have gone to hell anyway, I think.

No thats not the meaning of what I said. Homo Sapien is the human species. It's like saying he's part of a race of morons.
I do give him credit for Dark Side and Animals and Wish You Were Here I misspoke he did great work on all those albums but the Wall was what he he worked on most.

Did I say I don't like Waters because he called President's Nixon and Reagon tyrants? Those lyrics are in Fletcher Memorial Home. That song is in the Final Cut. Did you even read the whole post? Or did you not even realize that I was talking about your so called "great album".
