Submitted primarily because this is a grown-ass old man saying this shit.

Of course you’re entitled to your opinion, but I didn’t think I’d hear a boomer (or older?) using “autistic” as a substitute for stupid/dumb. That seems like more of a teenage edgelord thing. And if I was sure it was a teenager I wouldn’t have bothered to submit it.

“I had this album 50 years ago it was shit then and shit now”
It’s not for everyone. Maybe you’d rather Donny and Marie navigating a path through Country and Rock and Western and Roll?

"made for autistic retarded no idea types”
But this retarded no-idea music did become the iconic soundtrack to the Exorcist.

"like a group of hippy wannabes”
Just one guy, actually. Oldfield did everything himself. Oh, except for the introduction of the instruments.

“bashing horrible drums at Brunswick Heads on a Sunday arvo totally pathetic”
You have an odd definition of pathetic. I mean, unless you’re Michael Jackson or his choreographer.
Have you ever done anything or even been associated with anything that sold 20 million copies?

Why did you have the album? So you're jealous at his success and it's the best way you can express it?

Using the words "autistic" or "retarded" as insults is in very poor taste.

(Down Syndrome and autism both occur in my mother's family, so I am a bit sensitive.)
