Top 10 Musician Quotes About Other Musicians

Do you agree or disagree with the opinions of these musicians?
The Top Ten
1 Kurt Cobain on Guns N’ Roses: "They’re really talentless people, and they write crap music, and they’re the most popular rock band on the earth right now. I can’t believe it."

Maybe this is the reason people hate Guns N' Roses so much because they are mindless slaves who worship Kobain as if he was a god or something and making bands like Guns N' Roses look like satan or something

Umm, I don't think Nirvana were more talented than Guns N' Roses... Kurt wasn't a better guitarist than Slash and wasn't a better singer than Axl either.

And it's by the most talentless and the crappiest music writer ever...

Maybe he was too high at that time.

2 Trent Reznor on Marilyn Manson: "A malicious guy [who] will step on anybody’s face to succeed, and cross any line of decency."

Nine Inch Nails is so much better than Marilyn Manson

3 Van Morrison on The Beatles: "The Beatles were peripheral. If you had more knowledge about music. It didn't really mean anything."
4 John Lennon on Chuck Berry: "If you had to give rock and roll another name, you might call it Chuck Berry."

Not Elvis Presley for sure...

5 Ritchie Blackmore on B.B. King: "You can’t say it all with just four notes."
6 Arjen Lucassen on Hansi Kürsch: "His voice is very distinctive and sounds so huge. Whenever he sings he’s like this bard, this giant standing on top of the mountain, filling the whole valley with his singing."

I definitely agree with this.

7 Noel Gallagher on Liam Gallagher: "He’s like a man with a fork in a world of soup."

One of the nicest bros in music history (sarcasm).

8 Ritchie Blackmore on Dio: "I felt shivers down my spine [when Dio was singing]."

Because Dio is a Metal God (Dio means God in Italian)

Body's aching all the time?

9 Robbie Williams on Noel Gallagher: "He's a mean-spirited dwarf."
10 David Lee Roth on Elvis Costello: "Music journalists like Elvis Costello because music journalists look like Elvis Costello."

Is this positive or negative opinion?
