Do you think some pop stars should retire?

Do you think some pop stars should retire?

Post by Spiritinthesky »

Do you think our pop stars go on past their best?
Should some of them stop making a fool of themselves and pack it all in.

Or is it OK to be still rockin' at 65?
Mick Jagger is now 65, should Madonna still be dressing like she does on stage?

Will Michael Jackson ever 'Beat It?'
Is Elton John now a load of old crock?

I can do without Jackson and Madonna. Than again I never liked Madonna. Elton is still good. Haven't seen Mick lately but Rolling Stones music is still good. If the music is good they should still make it. If the show is good they should still play it. Some have just gone to smaller clubs and that is good too.

As long as people still want to see the mature rockers then they should keep going. Some of the best stuff can come out of the twilight years. Take for instance Graham parker he has penned some great songs in his aged years and i feel there is yet more great stuff to come and as for the likes of Tony bennett and Andy Williams, sheer legends!
