I'm in favor of gay marriage but against awfully/tackily produced/contrived weddings (gay or straight).

Macklemore & Lewis' "Same Love," a song written in support of same-sex marriage, was performed on a set resembling a church. Macklemore's rap was followed by a mass wedding featuring 33 couples taking the stage of Los Angeles' Staples Center.
Queen Latifah officiated, and Madonna served as maid of honor, following Latifah's exhortions with "Open Your Heart." The crowd roared its approval as the couples made their way back up the aisle.



I don't your comments at all.  Why do you hate gay marriage?

Why do you care how someone else gets married.  Who are you to say it is tacky? 
I didn't watch it, but reading about it makes it reek of (douchebag) Hollywood liberals rubbing their issue into the face of conservative middle America moreso than a sincere wedding ceremony.

I think there was something more tacky and in your face than this year's Vanilla Ice and Madonna officiating like a wax figure Sun Myung Moon over dozens of marriages.  Maybe at the 2017 Grammies they can do all of the divorces.

But….am I the only one who thinks Daft Punk

AND "Random Access Memories"

AND "Get Lucky" are just really, really overrated bordering on shit?

I mean, I was bored with "Get Lucky" the first time I heard.  How many times do they sing that hook?  20?  30?  Too much?

It's a hip dance track with a pedegree (Look!  Nile Rodgers!  He was in Chic and produced Madonna!) for people who have no idea how to shake their ass.  It's like a Cocaine Socialism EDM.

It's no "Hey Ya" or "Crazy".  It's not even "Sex and Candy."

As for the album, I can't give an opinion  because I keep falling asleep in the middle of it.

And take off those stupid fucking helmets.  What are you?  Kiss?  If I wanted to listen to a pretentious French duo that rarely puts out records, I'd put on the "Virgin Suicides" soundtrack.

Everone hates on Robin Thicke, but "Blurred Lines" was a MUCH better track.  People actually hooked up and got laid to that one (whether they liked it or not.)

Also, I was hoping that there would be a massive hair dye accident and we wouldn't have to put up with any more of this Beatlemania nonsense.  For most of you, how does it feel that you worship the same stupid shit that your parents did?  Y'all want to blow John Lennon.  I think he should be shot.

The only bright point is there never will be a Beatles 60th Anniversary.  They'll be dead by then.  Then this classic rock hegemony will be dead forever.

Those phrases would certainly describe my parents, and they certainly have a shit about how I felt.

There are ways to get those people to see your point of view and come around to your side of things, but Queen Latifah officiating a mass Hollywood wedding and Madonna preaching aint it, imho.

Damn it, I guess I shouldn't have brought up Daft Punk?
What are the odds of Islamic terrorists hitting this thing hard?

that's bullshit. you can't tell anyone anything in this world, no matter how you come across or how well-versed or educated you are.  
I agree with Rhett that if one is an Evangelical of the persuasion that gay marriage is wrong, a Macklemore song + wedding spectacular is probably only going to entrench their worldview, not make them reconsider it.

That said, I'm not really sure that was the intended point of that whole thing.

Yeah, I am sure people get married all the time to piss-off conservative america instead of loving the person they are with and wanting to spend a life-time together.

You seem to want everyone to share your opinion on things.  First the outrage that someone wrote a book about women being submissive and now this marriage celebration thing.  Neither of these things affects you.  Why do you care?
