Just A Thought

Filed under: Patrick Swayze

wenn661130.jpg

Ya, it's a bit sappy, but….

We just downloaded Patrick Swayze's She's Like The Wind on iTunes and we've been playing it on repeat.

If we all buy the song and we make it go to the Top 10, it'd be a nice gesture to the ailing Dirty Dancing star.

    Great idea! Don't let the naysayers get to you, Perez.

    Re: no comment – Maybe because the ACS is a sham. 22% of their yearly budget goes to FUNDRAISING. They have an excess of $100,000,000 a year. And they have $1,000,000,000 in net assetts. Umm…research? I don't think so.

    Re: slut – YOU ARE A DISGUSTING PERSON. I DON'T BELIEVE IN HELL, BUT IF I DID - IM SURE YOU WOULD BE GOING THERE!!!! JUST KILL YOURSELF OR SOMTHING - IT WOULD MAKE ME HAPPY!!!!!

    312

    LMAO Perez I can't believe you got me to do this. Actually not a bad jam. Sappy and always reminiscient of the life in the water. no one puts baby in the corner.

  13. Ap says – reply to this


    313

    LOVE the idea. Just bought it.

  14. Delia/Tiny says – reply to this


    314

    WOW Perez, I've actually had that song in my head all day and night yesterday. It's sooooo sad. I love Patrick and wish him and his family faith and love and strength through this sad hard episode in their lives.

  15. jane says – reply to this


    315

    my dad passed away 3 months ago from this horrible cancer. anything and everything helps when it comes to support. thanks.. i'd play the song over and over anyway :o )

  16. Val says – reply to this

    I was first seduced by Patrick Swayze in The Outsiders….No matter what he does, or has done, he will always be Darry to me!! Whatever happens with him, there are millions of women my age who will be forever grateful not only for having some great fantasies inspired by him (okay, what woman my age didn't want to do him after Dirty Dancing?…and don't even get me started on Roadhouse!)…but if you look at his roles in so many movies, his character always wanted to do the right thing. Tough to be the sexy tough guy and still maintain your morals. I've always loved him in his movies, and his SNL gigs were SO awesome! Who knew he could be funny too…and willing to go outside his comfort zone to entertain us?

    I do hope for the best, but I realize the gravity of his medical situation. At 46, I have sat and watched Dirty Dancing with my 16 year old daughter, and even she has to admit how hot he is. There's more than "hot" to him, and I hope he is one of the few who survive this cancer.

    I will surely pray for him, and send him a quiet "thanks" for so many years of taking me away from the "same old"….isn't that what acting is all about?

    Positive thoughts for Patrick and his family….Life happens, and death, or impending death is part of life. He touched this middle-aged woman..(without actually touching)…and that's a great gift!

  17. Liz says – reply to this


    317

    I got it!

  18. Slut says – reply to this


    318

    I hear Swayze has a young son…..can't wait till he's dead so I can move in and tap that young boy ass!!!

  19. bebe says – reply to this


    319

    Great idea. I just bought it!!!!! Prayers to Patrick. God's speed.

  20. Fuck Swayze says – reply to this


    320

    Whatever happened to keeping someone in your prayers? Fuck buying the song. Pray for the fucking guy, because last time I checked, spirituality goes a lot farther than capitalism. That is the dumbest fucking idea of all time.

  21. gee says – reply to this


    321

    great idea

  22. =] says – reply to this


    322

    ill do it!
    i love patrick!

  23. purple says – reply to this


    323

    I got to dance with Patrick Swayze once- true story. He is seriously a nice guy in real life. Thanks for posting this Perez :)

  24. made sick by you says – reply to this


    324

    Re: slut – Grow up " slut" is your mother proud of your mouth.

  25. Gen says – reply to this


    325

    or we could donate to the pancreatic cancer fundation. Which would be a lot more helpful to everyone

  26. Kelly says – reply to this


    326

    That is the sweetest thing ever to think of that Perez great thought. I am so happy Patrick isn't as bad off as first thought what a huge sigh of relief

  27. Lucy says – reply to this


    327

    That's really sweet of you Perez.
    That's awful, Patrick and his family will be in our prayers.

  28. talia says – reply to this


    328

    I downloaded it :) I hope it makes it to the top 10, that would be RAD! Yeah, I said rad lol

  29. Lynde says – reply to this


    329

    Bought it! Love him so much!

  30. Lesleyfaye says – reply to this


    330

    Gosh Perez..that is one of the best suggestions you have ever had!!!! I am downloading it as soon as I get home!!
    Best wishes to Patrick and his family!!

  31. Dona says – reply to this


    331

    I am 60 years old and got on here at the suggestion of someone else to buy She's Like the Wind. What a crying shame you allow the likes of "Slut" on this or any site. The bad outweighs the good. Can't you make a small contribution to society and prohibit some of these comments? Do you even care?

  32. good says – reply to this


    332

    Did it - great supportive idea!!! You have heart Perez… keep it up!

  33. megan says – reply to this


    333

    aww thats cute.

  34. Lauren says – reply to this


    334

    I bought it.
    Nice gesture Perez :)
    You're alright sometimes.

  35. Lauren says – reply to this


    335

    Also maybe now we can get this worthless Usher/Flo Rida/Chris Brown garbage off of the top 10.

    Real music makes a comeback!

  36. K says – reply to this


    336

    god perez ur plan is picking up momentum….. radio station in glasgow just announced wat ur trying to do! good plan!

  37. MiaLovesWino says – reply to this


    337

    Bought it!

  38. Lauren says – reply to this


    338

    I had the same idea, i downloaded it last night and listened to it on repeat, i love the song…. i bought it off itunes in the UK - hopefully it will go to number 1 here as well…. x x

  39. Karen says – reply to this


    339

    I bought the song. I don't want him to die!! Get better!!

  40. angela says – reply to this


    340

    Buy it? Pfft! Illegal download only!

  41. jack says – reply to this


    341

    your sick, using his illness to make money (DO NOT CLICK ON PEREZ'S LINKS AND BUY STUFF) He gets money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  42. Melissa at lazyradio.net says – reply to this


    342

    That's a great idea Perez. You do have a heart. :)
    I love this song anyways (I don't care if it's sappy, it always brings back great Dirty Dancing memories), so I'll buy it tonight. Rock on.

  43. very nice says – reply to this


    343

    perez that is a very nice gesture to do way to go!!! grea idea

  44. candy says – reply to this


    344

    Desde Venezuela pido a Dios por tu salud. Que te mejores te quiero mucho

  45. nikkiofyourdreams says – reply to this


    345

    I would spend 99 cents to make ANYONE feel better. I guess that is the differance between some of us and the rest of you. What pisses me off the most is that all you pathetic people who write nasty, inapropiate comments are probably the same ones that bitch and complain about how the world is going to shit. Take good look in the mirror. It's people like you "slut" that are making this world a bad place to be.

  46. Jess says – reply to this


    346

    Great idea Perez! I'm about to buy it. Sending lots of love and prayers to Patrick and his family.

  47. Poor Guy says – reply to this


    347

    Ah, this sucks so bad. Love you, Patrick. Love you.

  48. erin says – reply to this


    348

    Re: Ricardo – I agee. Perez was always not so nice towards Heath Ledger-until he died! He just wants to a part of the pity party.

  49. pancreatic cancer stinks says – reply to this


    349

    what is so horrible about this cancer is it is the 4th leading cause of cancer death yet ONLY gets 1% of funding for cancer research. there is no screening, little drugs, no symptoms, there is HOPE and SURVIVORS.

  50. Big Ups to the 40+ 'ers on this site! says – reply to this


    350

    I am nearly 46, next week in fact, and to whoever wrote that she's 46 and it's middle aged, OK, but I look better and feel better than twenty years ago. To those in their 20s, watch out. The years coming up do literally fly by. I love that we're all here with all our different ages, baggages, opinions and trash talk! Love you, Perez.

  51. Perez Has A Heart says – reply to this


    351

    I think the idea of downloading that song from iTunes is a great idea. Don't forget everyone…his family will benefit from his estate if he doesn't make it. I can't think of a more generous parting gift.

  52. Did Patrick Write the Song? says – reply to this


    352

    Because if he didn't the download money isn't making it his way. But the idea is very sweet anyway. I know it's not to make him more money. I get it. Very nice.

  53. Misery Loves Company says – reply to this


    353

    Re: nikkiofyourdreams – #352 Don't worry about it. "Slut" is probably the most miserable slag on the Net. We should feel sorry for IT.

  54. Barry says – reply to this


    354

    Have to say that I generally think that you're a pretty nasty person–but this was a really nice idea and a really nice gesture. Almost out of character for you, Perez!

  55. shannon says – reply to this


    355

    damn. you're good.

  56. Frances says – reply to this


    356

    You are a freak from hell…but I love ya!

  57. RESPONDING TO SLUT #13 says – reply to this


    357

    People don't deserve to die just because they smoke. Only evil people who hate and who kill without concience, deserve to die a horrible death.

    The fact is, we all going to die sooner or later. Think about, 150 years from now, not one single soul that is alive today, will prevail. Not even you, and that Slut is a very, very good thing. You don't deserve to have the gift of live.

  58. GROCHA says – reply to this


    358

    I wish you were THAT sweet more often Perez, and then, you would make the world a better place. Now that you have the power, why don't u just try???
    Just like Madonna, now she's still Madonna, she's still a bitch sometimes, but she's definitely "a better version of herself".

  59. Sarah says – reply to this


    359

    Aww i think this would be a really nice thing for people to do. Hope you get better soon Patrick xxxx

  60. Elizabeth says – reply to this


    360

    I think it's a great idea! Perez obviously has a great influence over people, so to suggest something like is was very cool of him. There are a lot of haters on here…really ugly people. Must suck to go through life with that outlook…

  61. Hubris says – reply to this


    361

    I downloaded it too.
    The news was terrible to hear. Patrick's a cool cat. We're sending you warm wishes and you're in our prayers, Mr Swayze.

  62. Maggie says – reply to this


    362

    Sure, Perez - I loved him in North and South. There is like 15 different versions of the song to buy. If you want it to get into the top ten, you might need to specify which version to buy.

  63. lyf says – reply to this


    363

    Re: slut – slut, you are sad. go perez! thanks for your caring heart and the support you extend to those who need it now most!

  64. Lilly says – reply to this


    364

    Prez, this is such a nice gesture and I love you and all, but you are acting like Patrick Swayze has already died… Although this type of cancer is extremely agressive he still have several wonderful months or years to live… We should be donating our money to cancer research not giving it to Apple we all know they have enough money.

  65. mke girl says – reply to this


    365

    That would be nice! I just bought it and i've never purchased a song from the internet b4… get better, Patrick, we need more SNL skits from ya… xo!

  66. Yo momma 909! says – reply to this


    366

    I hardly agree with you, because of all the shit you talk about Mariah… HATER!!

    But I think buying his song on I-tunes is a very nice gester!
    So I did!

    COME ON PEOPLE BUY, BUY, BUY, BUY!!!

  67. Sophia says – reply to this


    367

    So sad…..He was my first huge crush as a kid, and he is in 2 of my favorite movies of all time :( I hope he gets well & beats this, I am praying for him & his family! He is a great actor & what appears to be a devoted & loving husband…just depressing!

  68. Susetta says – reply to this


    368

    I bought it five times.

    #322 (Val)

    I just want to say that I totally agree with everything you said! I've loved him since the Outsiders, too! :) I think the most hilarious thing ever was him in the Too Wong Foo.. movie! :D

    I purchased the song, too! I have the CD around here but I think it's a fun tribute to him. :)

  70. Jules says – reply to this


    370

    I WAS LISTENING TO IT TOO! But I got it a while ago after my roommate and I went nuts watching Dirty Dancing. It's so corny! I love it!

  71. Sally says – reply to this


    371

    Perez, that's adorable. Excellent use of the internets.

  72. Perezugottabekidding says – reply to this


    372

    LOL. That song has always been at the TOP of my WORST LYRICS of ALL TIME List!!! 'She's like the wind..through my tree?' OY! Patrick would better be honored with a back-to-back showing of Dirty Dancing and Ghost. TBS likes to do that sort of thing–ask them.

  73. poison says – reply to this


    373

    nice thought

  74. Chelle says – reply to this


    374

    I'm wrong about not being sensitive about a person's well-being? What was the insensitive part — suggesting money be donated to a charity instead of iTunes? Okay?

    I hope the best for Patrick Swayze. My larger point is that only caring about people when they get sick is no way to live a life. Swayze would have been a punchline a few days ago. Any of Perez's targets could die tomorrow so why not be decent to some of them today? You can't call someone a joke on Monday and a saint on Tuesday without wondering if you were a little harsh on Monday.

    I come here because I like celeb gossip, but it's a lot more rare than it used to be. That doesn't make me a great person. You're right that I should stop entirely, but I felt compelled to point out the larger sadness.

    376

    OH, WHATEVER PEREZ. YOU JUST WANT TO GO ON A POWER TRIP AND SEE HOW MANY PEOPLE YOU CAN MAKE BUY THIS SONG! YOU JUST ENJOY IT WAY TOO MUCH WHEN YOU SEE A SONG YOU PROMOTE END UP ON THE ITUNES CHART. GO FUCK YOURSELF.

    Re: slut
    Seems like the only pig here is you, and maybe anyone else who talks like you. ou must have had a really shitty life to be so heartless and hateful…and why do your read this site if you hate Perez sooo much. You need to crawl back under the pile of toxic waste that fermented such a pathetic "creature" as you, and stay there. It may be sappy to buy a song, but maybe it would touch someone who, celebrity or not, needs support. As for me, I'll buy the song and donate to cancer research (great idea to the earlier poster) and thank the stars that I am not now, nor ever will be as sickeningly disgusting as you. I really hope your life gets better.

  93. come on... says – reply to this


    393

    for those of you who are beating down on perez for this idea…shame on you. swayze is getting his 'punishment' or whatever suffering you think he deserves… he's going to fucking die!! he was still a good person despite whether or not he did this to himself. that is a very sweet and nice way to send him off perez. we all make mistakes– back when he smoked…it's likely he became addicted before they even knew the real long term and bad affects…it's not easy to quit…this was a very thoughtful idea. i bought the song.
