I like Jazz and Blues, but detested that song.

Eh, props to the guy for taking an opportunity to make a shit-load of money. I can't fault him for that.

I sure don't have any idea. It's surely far above how high I can count.

I don't think he gives a shit either. I certainly wouldn't.

Actually I think I prefer his acting.

If you watched How To Be, he plays the guitar and sings in that.

OT: It's not that bad, I've heard worse. -shrug-

Unfortunately, if Robert Patterson did great things like win 3 gold medals, sell a platinum album which everyone liked and wrote an amazing book, I still think people would still be "isn't he that fag in twilight?"

Having said that.

He is making more money than any of us will ever see ever. So I guess he wins.

I don't see why everyone seems to hate Rob Pattinson. Fine, despite being a Twilight fan, I don't like the character of Edward Cullen. And also, I think that Pattinson's acting in Twilight and New Moon was extremely wooden and he showed literally no emotion in either film. But Rob Pattinson has proven himself to be a good actor as Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter, and he's also starring in an upcoming film called Remember Me, which I saw the trailer for, and that film looks great. And more importantly, according to the trailer, Pattinson actually acts extremely well (watch the trailer or clips of it for proof). He's not a bad actor, he just happened to be crap in the Twilight films.

Anyway, back on topic. I've heard some of Pattinson's music and he's pretty good. Maybe nothing mainstream, but if his acting career goes tits up then he's got something good to fall back on. That's got to be worth something, right?

And he actually hates Twilight, believe it or not.
Once he figured out what it was about, he stopped showering so that his fans would be disgusted.

I think the real victory here is all the tween girls who will use this song as a platform to actual music and not the shit they listen to.

Or so I can hope.

I've heard him jamming things on the piano and guitar etc and I think he's a really fucking talented musician. He composes with real soul and creates interesting and diverse soundscapes. People need to get over the twilight hate, it's old news, yeah it wasn't all that great but for fuck sake get over it and find something you do like and praise that...

Just lay off the guy already, give him a chance to repent at least. Direct your hatred towards that at that Jacob kid. He's the mindless droid you've been looking for... To hate on...

Remember when Charlie Simpson left Busted to continue with his old band Fightstar? Well guess what? Fightstar are fucking awesome and absolutely nothing Charlie did with Busted (which was horrible btw) will have any effect on me when I think about Fightstar. He got over the fan rage and abuse by blowing peoples faces off with Fightstar's emotive brand of highly textured, hyper charged post-rock music.

It's very generic sounding. But it's something I could put on and listen to in the bath. If I ever did that. Which I don't. Cos I'm a guy. And shit.

Can't someone just stake him, and leave him out for daybreak, along with the rest of that sparkly garbage?

It's not my type of music, but it's not anything I'd call "bad" by any means. I'm far from a fan of the Twilight series, but I can hardly blame the guy for wanting to ride the gravy train. Who knows- maybe he'll turn out like Will Smith and develop some real acting chops.

I don't like it. Not a fan of blues in the first place but he's a little hard to understand, I think.
