Now playing the role of Godzilla in our cyber-Tokyo: Sir Elton John!

Sir Elton wants to destroy the internet because he thinks it's ruining music. A few gems include:

 

"The internet has stopped people from going out and being with each other, creating stuff. Instead they sit at home and make their own records, which is sometimes OK but it doesn’t bode well for long-term artistic vision."

 

Huh? So, music is more accessible for people to make? Bad, eh?

 

"I do think it would be an incredible experiment to shut down the whole internet for five years and see what sort of art is produced over that span."

Um.

 

"I don’t have a mobile phone or an iPod or anything."

 

Good evening folks, introducing your evening's Unibomber, it's Sir Elton John!
