Don't care what anyone says, this is not a song for kids and has certainly stood the test of time. Say what you want about him and what he might have done, great talent.

Not the first time you or Rolling Stone were completely wrong.
Not to mention Bono

Not trying to knock a local legend; while his song writing was brilliant, his "nasal" voice for me left something to be desired. Having said that, I enjoy his music enough to compensate for what I don't appreciate from him vocally.

Ouch...my Itunes collection has a whole bunch of stuff I don't realize I even have..stuff accumulated over time from friends via bulk sharing (not actually paying attention to what they were giving me), etc. Left for a bit and came back to "Jesus Walks" from Kanye West...and it must be the worst thing I've heard in years.

Ooo, thanks for the reminder, I've been meaning to iTunes some more Kanye. And, some Michael Jackson as well. Bought Thriller from iTunes a couple of years ago, need to get a few more select MJ tunes if the service hasn't crashed. Note to self, buy Apple stock.
