Are you being serious? Whether you're joking or not, this was an 
offensive thing to say. I don't have a problem with your 
disliking a song and saying so, but insensitivity to another's 
pain -- especially in grief -- is simply not done. I know you 
like to swagger in your posts -- and usually your assertiveness 
makes me smile, but in this area it truly is best to step 
lightly.

I'm sure one of the reasons KB chose Clapton to work on ASIL was 
that he'd just experienced such a horrible loss -- much as she 
had done with her mother. And the fact that he is a guitar god 
probably didn't hurt her decision.  :-)
