I sent this guy the following email:
Six great songs??? Maybe that is the case for you personally Mr. Harrington, but ask the fans in that arena and they will give you a list much longer than that. Five minutes on billboard.com would have given you factual numbers that dispute this statement.
As for your comment that the number one reason BJ is still so successful is because JBJ is willing to shake his booty, play the clown etc.... here is what I have to say:
Yes BJ's fanbase is predominately female, yes most of us enjoy looking at the frontman, yes it's a bonus that he is goodlooking, has a fine body and a million dollar smile, and that his "bad" dancing rocks, but the reality is that isf it weren't for the songs that we connect with, that make us laugh, cry, smile,dance, sing along with and mark the times in our lives by, no amount of booty shaking, clowning, bad dancing, and flashing million dollar grins would have kept most of us on this train ride for the last 25 years.
Give the fans some credit Mr. Harrington, while you personally may not enjoy BJ's songs don't assume those of us that do are all just shallow, all about appearances, if the performer is hot we will go watch no matter what "drivel" he's performing types. Maybe you've spent too much time in the "Appearances are everything " world of California, might I suggest you come and join us in the real world, whether you get it or not most of us are filling the arenas of America because we love the music and the band that plays it.
