Yes, say Bieber to most folks over 50, and they'll roll their eyes, but that's one talented dude. Say .. Cher, Celine Dion ... and OMG, such talent. Their voice, and marketing is their only talent, as rarely if ever write their songs or play an instrument. Let alone something they did write, becomes a hit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why bother posting on an anonymous forum to tell others that he has 'never heard of ...'? I'm reminded of when we moved to a new area in 2010 - I was told there was an Englishman living about 5km away who I 'must meet' - for he was 'educated', and 'a writer'. I took the bait. Turns out his journalistic ability was posting endless one-liners on the ThaiVisa forum. A writer indeed! 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have however, heard of him and have seen many clips of him performing some of his best-known material over many years. Even though his style of music is not to my taste, I've always considered him to be a very talented singer/song writer whos first song about a lost gay lover was huge. This is very recent pic from an English tabloid presumably taken in Thailand: Here's his 'brother'. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this them/their/they BS is confusing, distracts from his abilities and only creates ridicule. I usually fast forward through the long, usually annoying intro/credits to movies. Bond movies especially, as nothing to see relating to the movie. ... sorry Sam, over to YT, as curious now. Good voice range, song sucks, can't relate.

It's like when travelling and someone figures out your nationality you then get the "Oh, there's an Irish/Aussie/American/French/Kiwi (whatever fits) pub on X street." At which point I tend to go blank. I'm travelling to get away and see other places, why the hell would I want to frequent a bar potentially full of my compatriots!

We had a saying in my previous life "A whinging soldier is a happy soldier" (based on the fact that if someone is quiet and withdrawn it's a good sign he may have issues). The person that coined that phrase, god knows how many decades ago, may well have changed his mind if he was a member on here or got bailed up by certain expats 555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had one of those classic conversations with a yank in Bkk one drunken avro. I let him prattle on for a while before telling him it was perhaps time he moved on as it was getting boring. He started getting indignant so I cut him off with a "Mate, maybe I don't look it but I've no doubt I'm older than you and I'm too young to have served in "The Nam", no way did you and your tales have changed from faintly amusing to quite pathetic so jog on" 555 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
