I won't deny that years of continuous drug abuse addled his brains. But he was a great lyricist and a spectacular vocalist, and you shouldn't decry him because he's a little nutty now.

Platinum you said. Westlife have records of more number one singles though.
Beatles singles competed with each other for the #1 spot. I don't think that the amount of number ones really bears any justification though, since there are plenty of number one pop stars out there that don't deserve to lick the shit off the Beatles shoes.

Still metal fans tend to be a bit juvenile like to me.
Don't they go and shoot themselves or shoot schoolkids often?
Seems a little juvenile like to me to be making generalizations like that.

All I am saying is that for me a good band has intellectual depth and tackles issues.
But each to their own.
Not everyone values the same qualities in a band.

It would be like someone liking a poet because they wrote poems about snorting ants and getting pissed.
Uhhhhhh...what?

People respect more bands that have meaning in a wider context.
And other people respect bands that have a significant impact upon musical history.
