Mike was a class act as always here. I’d have torn apart someone who literally said he hated Sharp Edges for being a cheap and cheesy Ed Sheeran ripoff, considering how intimate and self revealing that song was for Chester. I mean, one thing is being critic towards music, the other is being borderline disrespectful to the artist. I don’t like Happy Endings but I’d never make a 10 Minutes video making jokes about it. Kudos to Mike.
I respect Fantano for his passion in talking about music but I stopped caring about his videos at a certain point because he tries too hard to convince people that music is objective, like it’s not objective that Battle Symphony is a bad song, it’s objective that it’s less complex and elaborated instrumentally than 7empest by Tool. Taste is not objective.
