Ointment FlyI've always just assumed so, since it seems to be a popular position. But I've never actually heard the man's music, as far as I know. It doesn't seem like the kind of music I'd like, but perhaps someone who has actually listened to him could chime in.
And no sports talk allowed in this thread. Unless it's John Tesh related.

of Earth.I thought the Title of this thread, upon a quick scan, was "John is Teh Suck?"
Yes. John is teh suck.
(Actually I don't know. I don't like country music as a rule. Saying he sucked earlier was mostly meant as a joke.)

Wait, isn't he new age?
Also, I think he wrote the "NBA on NBC" theme song, which is an example of sports talk that is allowed in this thread.

Well, to be fair, xhonzi can't tell your gender or descent, what with your giant Spaceballs helmet and all.

Host extraordinare of "THE VFP Show"!The NBA on NBC theme was cool, except it was mostly a ripoff highly derivative of CBS' NBA music. So, yeah, he is TEH SUXXORZ.

yavasizadooAll I know about JT is that he used to host Entertainment Tonight w/Mary Hart, and he's married to the beautiful actress Connie Sellecka. I've only heard bits and pieces of his music, and I didn't care for what I heard. Kind of watered-down, Yanni-type new-age stuff. Some new-age/atmospheric stuff is great (like Nicklaus) but JT ain't it.

Magister Pontifex MaximusI once materialised on his starship (he was not in residence) and witnessed first hand that members of his species do indeed suck marrow from humanoid cadavers.
The corpses need to be a few weeks old and are chosen from special request messages on his various fan websites across the cosmos.
If you prefer a Tesheki to slurp on your rotting dead bones to a traditional cremation or burial just contact John and he will do the rest.

Just a simple man.As a kid, I grew up with John Tesh and Yanni on PBS.
In my mind, I always imagined that Yanni would kick Tesh's wimpy ass. My preference of Yanni over Tesh was due 100% to his mustache, which made him look to me like a longer-haired version of my dad.
However, Yanni would eventually fall out of the limelight of my young life and I would find John Tesh was more and more involved in my life than I thought.
I used to catch Tesh on Music from the Hearts of Space on NPR late at night, and it used to scare the shit out of me (whale sounds after dark as a child are terrifying). I love that kind of minimalist ambient white noise music now, though.
One Christmas a few years ago, I found that Tesh hosted a radio show that did pseudo-advice for dumb people that came on after Delilah's show where she gives really bad relationship advice, also to dumb people. This was the globally-syndicated Mix station that is exactly, disconcertingly the same in any city you go to.
Because of his reentry into my life, I began to notice his voice in commercials (especially for Amway) more and more.
Obviously, because of the earlier parallel to my father, the only conclusion I can logically come to is that Yanni represents my long-lost biological father who I idolize and idealize though he abandoned me and neglected me in my most impressionable stages of early life; whereas John Tesh represents the kind stepfather who has stepped in and tries to win me over with fatherly advice and Amway products, and yet I resent him even though he has been in my life longer and provided more love for me than my biological father (Yanni) ever did.
I am not sure where this leaves my actual father.

Better a bad bomb than a bombadMy hatred of Tesh stems from his radio show.
As a DJ he basically reads short lists of ways to be a better person and gives really lame, obvious advice.
"Is your wife waiting for the results from a serious medical test? Studies show it will help your marriage if you comfort her as she waits."
"Did you know MONEY is the cause of lots of stress in life? To avoid stress, make sure you have as few money problems as possible."
"Researchers in Cambria have found that if you lock babies in closets, they grow up less secure than non-closet-locked babies. Be sure to talk to your spouse about that, and avoid trans-fats."

... And they had 'The Empire Strikes Back', the fifth of the four Star Wars films. He is fucking with us numerically, isn't he! "Children, count up to ten." "Four, five, six, one, two, three, ten". No, it goes, four, five, six, one, two, three… No, it goes: four, five, six. One... Two and three have not been made." "Two and three have not been made! What should they be?" "What should they be? We do not know. All we know is that there will be a big floppy character in it that goes, squawk squawk squawk... who needs a punch up the bracket!"
