The TOPIC clearly is that Ed's music is terrible.

Why did it happen? How did a man they was once able to write amazing lyrics become the pathetic cliche that he is today? Was it the pressures of fame? The pressure of maintaining a certain lifestyle that he had become accustomed to? Maybe it just wasn't fun for him anymore, but he had no other career options?

What does everyone think?

I feel that artists just reach a highpoint (is plateau the right word here?) and then the decline begins. "Better to burn out than to fade away." I think we all can agree that Eddie's artistic plateau was TC & SS.
