  my     respect for pete waterman holds no bounds! also put pete in charge of the railways in the  uk and we would have an half descent transport network. i heard him talk on lots of radio station on the matter and he talks a hell of a lot of sense.

  Pete Waterman = Quality over quantity and Simon Cowell = Quantity over Quality

  I was a young boy when Pete was doing the rounds, I was about 10 when Rick Astley came out and he was the first artist I ever liked and still like even to this day so much so I saw him live the other night in Bournemouth/UK, the thing about Pete is he know's what he's talking about and is very passionate about what he created and he did all this with pocket change, the stars that Pete created are still big names to day, so much pop crap is thrown around these days that it's not worth following

  there is such a thing as too successful, Music is all about pop now , I long for the days of punks skins rastas rude boys casuals new romantics soul boys psychobillys rockers etc etc etc etc but alas I feel its gone too far & music is destined to stay in this samey homogenized one size fits all, Thanks god for my Vinyl collection!

  He was brilliant at what he did, but nothing he did was brilliant....far from it (Road Block was OK) but he was in the business of bubblegum pop, not art. He comes across as quite honest and makes no excuses for his crimes against music. Personally I think he did a lot less damage to the music industry in the 80's and 90's than Cowell has done in the last 20 years. Can't stand Cowell but quite like Pete and his amazing train set..

  Pete Waterman was right about the second series of Pop Idol and its winner.

  Music is an individual choice. You only have your opinion!

  @jayangli <br>Simon Cowell&apos;s clearly much more interested in money than he is in music. You can see that, right?
