-he was a revolutionary, but that fact now outshines anything he's done since those halcyon days, and thats why people will continue lapping him up and worshipping him even if there are "better" or more relevant artists now that aren't getting the attention they deserve. pioneer syndrome, i call it
-granted this was my weakest criticism, but i'll say that where sp's lyrics are occasionally just trite or half-baked, a few of bob's try to sound cleverer than they are and result in my brain feeling scrambled in a bid just to picture what he's talking about. this may say more about me than about his lyrics, but i know i'm not the only one who feels this way.
IS THERE ANYTHING PUMPKINS RELATED YOU DO NOT LIKE
