as well as--
"it [Angel] was inspired by articles that she read in Rolling Stone about musicians turning to heroin to cope with the pressures of the music industry and subsequently overdosing"
READ Background: Angel (Sarah McLachlan song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
it qualifies WITH ADDITIONAL comments added. Thank you for posting.
Your welcome. I am glad you took the time to educate yourself about Sarah. I am a very huge fan of hers and I know much about her background and struggles. I was very surprised by your DM demanding me to remove that song from this post. It certainly belongs here
Title was --- Angel does not fit this genre HARDCORE Recipients: TVC15
Title: Angel does not fit this genre HARDCORE
(is this true? why of course. let's continue)
You may select something else or explain if Sarah was a depressive
(Is this in keeping to what was outlined as standards for posting in this thread?
Yes... therefore impossible to be demanding chuckle... let's continue)
otherwise I will have it removed.
(for the sake of the integrity of a thread, a responsible OP is required to maintain a standard for the enjoyment of all who lurk and post?... Of course! It keeps it drama free! lol)
Let's go on
Strict adherence to my outline will be enforced.
Demanding? No... It is a clear declaration that what was stated in the Original Post will be followed through.
As to Sarah---
I knew her history but repected that you as author would desire your own hand at editing your post as well as would WANT to be in harmony with rules originating from me AS OP.
the above stood behind the original post, and was clear as to what was to be expected of you as well as myself as a poster in this thread.
If you found that constrictive then there are other threads with a similar intent as this one to post in.
I did on your behalf what was asked of you to do, both in the DM as well as in the original post in order that your selection remain without vexation to lovers of this Genre.
I wouldn't want to see Hip Hop if the Genre is Rock, without explanation.
--so in consideration of you loving her did I take it on myself to bring harmony between HARDCORE lovers who were not shy voicing displeasure and Sarah staying.
Lurkers have a right to their expectations being fulfilled.
My position was one of harmony between both sides---
"I" did your work for you -- this was the least offensive of choices. and you are welcome!

No one but you created the drama
I simply followed the title of the thread and posted a sad feeling song written by a beautiful artist.
No work on my part was required. You did the work for yourself as I was not the one with the issue for posting Angel.
Keep in mind that you do not create the rules for CD posting. You sent me 2 DM's threatening to have my post removed and I chuckled at both of them. I posted appropriately according to CD rules.
