More Brookstein ramblings
The guy has now banned all talk of any act connected to Louis Walsh , Simon Cowell or Sharon Osbourne.
I can't believe how bitter and twisted the guy is because he messed his own career up. Think he should take a chill pill and concentrate what he's best at as there is no denying he is a great singer, he just seems to have lost it completely. |

That's not true Bridgem! _ I was reading on his site today and all threads on these acts are open and no there is no mention of any ban.

I think Steve's in the right. Simon ruined him, liked he's trying to ruin Shayne. Luckily for Shayne though, Louis' there to help him.

I think its from Monday..
Can't say I blame him, I think when Louis said something snidey on an afternoon show about having a worthy winner this year Steve suddenly thought - hold on, this is my forum funded by me and I've got threads promoting Louis's acts and here's Louis going around on TV slagging me off.. I don't think Steve is bothered about how he is perceived by people who think Louis & Simon are doing great things for the British Music industry, he just wants to get on doing his & Eileens album on his terms. |

He has every right to do what he wants on his own site
and if people to the trouble to read what he posted, his reasons are valid and i don't blame him one bit and as for this thread its yet another excuse to slate him don't you think its getting a bit boring now. |

Well here are the words of the man himself Quote:
I think west life, g4 and shayne have good enough forums to discuss those acts there. So as from Monday, i'm asking Pam to end all Walsh threads. My apologies to those who are fans of both myself and those i've mentioned. I don't like any of them musically. I'd never in a million years buy any of their albums. i would much prefer to see john legend fans, brian mcknight, luther, george benson, anthony hamilton, jaheim etc being discussed. Quote:
Thanks, I have a good idea of the content i would like on the site and Walsh isn't part of my plan. Walsh and his acts will only get a mention when he decides to put his foot in his mouth again. I must say i'm disappointed that his acts condone his actions. I would not tolerate a manager that openly critises another artist the way he does. I guess they work for him, not the other way round. Unfortunately they are guilty by association. but it's OK for him to slate other acts and other people Quote:
Posted: Fri Feb 10, 2006 1:46 am Post subject: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- sorry, chico's time is nearly up on this site. oh i didn't mention that. I'm also getting shot of Cowell's pop schlop from the site aswell. No offence chico. but the whole sharon, louis, simon crud has got to go. i guess this an early spring clean. night all x Yes he can post what he wants on his own site, and anybody should be able to have a view that they want on any site. I don't like Louis Walsh and have openly slated Cowell for his poor promotion of Steve , but to start calling these people in public Steve might as well sign off the end to any big career he ever may have had because like it or not these guys are influential and have track record to prove it. Some things are better said behind closed doors and I would expect a higher level of professionalism from someone like Steve, seems like he's spending too much time on the forum slating Walsh and Cowell and not enough time in the studio or on TV proving them wrong. The best way to shut them up is to prove that you are bigger than Shayne , bigger than Westlife etc etc. Steve boasts the points that he was a worthy winner and got more votes than Shayne, and I agree with him on that point, the public liked him better when he was doing the type of songs that the public likes, but they have outsold him 10 to 1. OK by making covers which is what Steve would say, but if you don't want a pop career singing covers for the first couple of years then don't enter the X Factor. I actually think that Steve breaking away from Cowell he has actually let all those people who voted for him down, as he has deprived them of his music, but he only wants what he wants and couldn't give a crap about the fans apart from those few who hang on to every last word he says. |

He is in the studio now finishing off an album of mostly new British soul - original stuff written by him. That's what I wanted when I voted for him and that's what I'm getting. So I'm not hanging off his every word, I just happen to agree with him. |

If you like Luther, Micheal McDonald etc then why not listen to them? Why listen to Steve singing them? He's a soul singer he ain't going to sound that different to the originals..

I'm with Spiv on this one, I cant see that steve has let anyone down, he is doing the opposite, he's being true to himself and his music I for one cannot wait for his next album, I enjoyed the first as I believe it was an idea of what he can do, I have heard him sing his own material live, it outweighs anything he didwhilst imprisoned by syco. |

I just don't understand the whole X factor bit f you say Steve wanted to be true to himself, in that case why didn't he insist on singing some of his own material on the show or walk if hadn't been allowed to? |

If Steve wants his forum set out a bit differently why shouldn't he. What's it to you, if you don't like Steve anyway. It's not as if you or anyone for that matter who slates Steve will be reading the forum or psoting there ? Or do you and will you ? Actually I have just answered my own question there. You are copying and posting stuff yet again from his site, so you must be a member there. You shouldn't even be copying and pasting from secure sections, as you have done before, there must be someone I can get onto about that. I will look into it. What favours have any of those judges done for Steve during and since the X Factor to be honest. So why should he promote them and their acts. If he wants to distance himself from it now, good on him. And if he wants to have the occasional say about things printed in the papers when he wants so be it. He is hurting no one by having an opinion on news items, he is not even saying he believes them. He is doing no more than half the people on this forum are, he is debating stuff.

I think "freedom of speech" comes into it here, I hardly think mentioning a name is promoting them, people aren't saying "Come and buy the new westlife album it's better than Steves" that would be promotion. 3. It is a public site so there are no restrictions about copying a pasting any bit of text be it positive or negative , so look away and if you find I am breaking any laws then please feel free to report be to the necessary authority. 4. There is nothing wrong with having a debate about anything but going about it the way he is shows that he is harbouring a jealousy of the success of Loius Walsh's acts, Walsh is probably laughing his socks off at it all. 5. Do you ever have any type of opinion that deviates from what comes out of Steves mouth. If you were a true fan you and others would be encouraging Steve to put a stop to all this jealousy and Vendetta nonsense now and just to let his music do the talking. Steve is always right in his own mind (and in people like you) and can only come up with derogatory comments like name calling e.g, Louis Waltz & calling me Bridget. If thats the best he can come up well.................... |

I find it a bit hard to relate to where you are coming from Bridgem - its horses for courses and all that - I love Steve's voice and as much as I enjoyed the album I couldn't say that I prefered his versions, I would be hard pushed to say that anyone could do a track better than say Al Green on an Al Green original. As for insisting that he sang his own material on the show come on get real! If he had walked off wouldn't he be letting down all the people that had voted for him until then if we follow your logic??

I wasn't suggesting he walked off the show, I was making a point, Steve summed it up perfectly on his site Quote:
Now wally, let me explain... Exactly right people don't want to hear original songs, and it would be of a disadvantage only if they were not upto scratch. Even Chico pulled it off so if Steve was so good at writing then so would he.I'm the artist. why would i spend my life sing covers to please you? yes it is about taste, mine! why would i sing original songs on a prime time tv show giving myself a disadvantage against other acts who sing songs people know. There is a time an a place to express your creativity. I felt one album of covers was enough. It wasn't ideal, but i went along with it hoping to get more freedom later. It never transpired...the rest is history! Ramblings over...til the next bit of crap you chuck up! I obviously bother Steve and I'm obviously striking a raw nerve as he cannot stop posting about me, he's even copying and pasting stuff from here now. Susann are you going to report him Imagine big star Steve getting all upset and posting about an idiot like me. PS Steve - How did you know I male All-Bran castles? Still probably beats making coasters out of unsold jazz CD's |

Goodness me. Does he really call posters on his site names?
That's not smart and not at all a good way to keep the fans he has. |

I think everyone knows my opinion on Steve by now, but I think by now, everyone also knows that he'll do what he wants on his site... without thinking about the consequences.
This thread won't change his mind! |

As much as you all think he has a right to end whatever discussions he wants, i think its pathetic that he is banning any G4/Shayne etc threads. I use to have respect for the guy when he could turn around and say "i dont like their music but well done to them"...i think this just shows that he's clearly bitter that the likes of G4 are more successful then him, or he wouldnt feel the need to ban any G4 chat!...its nothing to do with the fact he wants to distance himself from the X factor, if that was the case he wouldnt have recorded a duet with 4tune!!!!
Deary me, what a bitter man we have on our hands! |
