This is what Sir Elton John wants.

Yes, he said Internet has been destroying the human relationships. People don’t go out anymore and don’t listen music.

Why? Blogs! That’s it. He said: “We’re talking about things that are going to change the world and change the way people listen to music and that’s not going to happen with people blogging on the internet.”

So, if there are no more good albuns, good music, you are guilt, dear bloggers… That’s all your fault!

I think people just can’t deal with the new. People don’t like change. The internet has helped a lot to kick-starting the careers of some best new talents. Internet has been opened doors and of course, closed others.

How can you deal with that?

It seems Sir Pop Legend can’t do it. His new album sold just 100.000 copies and he blamed the internet music download.

My opinion: Let’s Shut Down Elton John!
