Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters Ruins the Song ‘Money’!

Another case where I have to separate the artist from the art.  I think a lot of his work is fantastic, but that doesn't mean I subscribe to his world view.  I still love Annie Hall, but I don't condone Woody's behavior over the last (checks calendar)...always.  If I narrowed my focus of things I find entertaining to just the artists who pass some kind of purity test I'd have a pretty small record collection.

The OP post link is simple clickbait for some @$$ hole talking about the song.

otherwise agree with dissent regarding Roger Waters

Water's remake is a peculiar mix of an old rocker's creative re-expression and his religious views. "The Devil pats the briefcase that holds the Faustian pact" The pact is with Waters- and he pays homage to Cohen who also professed his Faustian Pact.  

It's an age old story- make the deal, get big and rich and then get torn down. Why should anyone be surprised that Waters is in the destruction phase now?

It's his song and he can do what he likes to it......

the same as its your ears and you can choose what you listen to with it.....

I personally don't like the new version so I will not listen to it again.

It's really as simple as that!
