"it's a damn shame that i don't even try to like new music anymore."


  

          

i don't even try to form an opinion on
whether any of the stuff in the top 40 is good or not.
i just realize that the new crop of artists
are not for me... and it's up to the people that love that music
to decide whethere it's good or bad.



it's not that i don't like ANY new music.
but most of the new music that i like
reminds me of old songs that i like.
(for instane, i dig lady gaga, but she sort of reminds me of madonna, and i like that.)



anyway... i'm not saying that the older generation of music
wasn't better. i still think the 60s and 70s
had more great music.

i still haven't seen an artists of today
that can compare to MJ or stevie or prince in their primes (or even past their primes)



but honestly, i don't feel it's my place to judge what
the "kids" are listening to.



when it comes to new music,
i think my "old" ass needs to stfu.
(i just turned 29, btw).

No offense, but you're lazy.
Jan 04th 2012

not lazy, just uninterested.
Jan 04th 2012
11
it's supposed to be fun, not work.
Jan 04th 2012
13
Understood.
Jan 04th 2012
16
Actually, this has contributed to me listening to LESS new music too
Jan 05th 2012
45
      Nobody has taken away your option to turn on the radio
Jan 05th 2012
52
           Technically, I don't own a radio.
Jan 05th 2012
54
           You were talking about weeding through all the shit that's out there
Jan 05th 2012
58
                you seem to be misunderstanding me, though.
Jan 05th 2012
60
                     Yeah maybe I misunderstood
Jan 05th 2012
62
                          Because it's too overwhelming.
Jan 05th 2012
63
                               What you're saying still doesn't make sense to me
Jan 05th 2012
65
                                    ahhhhh....
Jan 05th 2012
69
                                         So now I'm a dimwit because you can't walk into a record store?
Jan 05th 2012
72
                                              No.
Jan 05th 2012
75
                                                   I told you it wasn't that big a deal
Jan 05th 2012
76
                                                        I didn't insult you.
Jan 05th 2012
78
                                                             This type of shit is actually more insulting really
Jan 05th 2012
80
                                                                  I apologize if I offended you.
Jan 05th 2012
81
                                                                       I appreciate that but I don't need an apology
Jan 05th 2012
83
                                                                            okay.
Jan 05th 2012
84
           Finding new music today is pretty damn easy....lol.
Jan 05th 2012

I never really went out of my way for pop music
Jan 04th 2012
10
I don't try to like new popular music
Jan 04th 2012
12
I just get bored listening to the same stuff over and over
Jan 04th 2012
15
Lol
Jan 04th 2012

And ppl wonder how folks in their 50s/60s listen to elevator music
Jan 04th 2012
20
elevator music = marketing to 50-60 year olds?
Jan 04th 2012
21
marketing was the wrong word, but you get the point..hopefully
Jan 04th 2012
23
Change elevator music to smooth jazz
Jan 05th 2012
50
      does smooth jazz even still exist?
Jan 05th 2012
51
           I was surprise (pleasantly) to see our local station changed format
Jan 05th 2012
53
           yeah, the format is in decline
Jan 05th 2012
55
                RE: yeah, the format is in decline
Jan 05th 2012
59
                     LOL
Jan 05th 2012
61
                          I take some bit of umbrage w/the idea that it comes from 'new age'
Jan 05th 2012
68
                               Yep
Jan 05th 2012
74
           Yep. My parents (in their 60s) love it, go to concerts and all that shit
Jan 05th 2012
56
Most folks grow out of top 40 stuff by your age
Jan 04th 2012
24
I guess I'm sort of the same way.
Jan 04th 2012
25
This is a good post
Jan 04th 2012

Jan 04th 2012

See, I hate the argument/division on both sides of this.
Jan 04th 2012

LMAO. You've basically summarized every Youtube Comments
Jan 05th 2012

Jan 04th 2012

Two Things Happened To Me That Made Me Lose Interest In Most of Today's ...
Jan 05th 2012
40
ALL new music reminds me of old stuff, whether I like it or not...
Jan 05th 2012
41
That's another good point:
Jan 05th 2012
47

Jan 05th 2012

Jan 05th 2012
42
I don't look for new artist at all....
Jan 05th 2012
43
i agree.
Jan 05th 2012
44
The demise of record store culture is what...
Jan 05th 2012
46
'curatorial filters'... I like that!
Jan 05th 2012
48
I've heard a similar phrase
Jan 05th 2012

           Yeah
Jan 06th 2012
108
i wasn't hitting up record stores much anymore even before
Jan 05th 2012
67
      My tipping point was the copy protected albums
Jan 05th 2012
70
           yeah and the FBI logos and shit.
Jan 05th 2012
71
the importance of music in my life is diminishing rapidly
Jan 05th 2012
64
I think this ties into
Jan 05th 2012
79
it's hard for older folks to have same sense of discovery w/ new artists...
Jan 05th 2012
82
      but where do your expectations play into it
Jan 05th 2012
89
      hmmmm
Jan 11th 2012

Jan 05th 2012
87
starting to smell like mothballs and bengay up in this bitch
Jan 05th 2012
88
where else was it going?
Jan 05th 2012
91
      a wholesale indictment on potna's mentality?
Jan 05th 2012
92
      That's where I was going too
Jan 05th 2012
93
      for what?
Jan 05th 2012
94
      but did you hear the ballads on "invincible?"
Jan 05th 2012
96
      It's because in the end B ain't MJ
Jan 05th 2012
99
           Basically.
Jan 08th 2012
110
      are you saying that we establish biases towards certain
Jan 05th 2012
98
           I'm saying the lesson has bias towards certain arguments
Jan 05th 2012
103
                This was bound to happen though
Jan 05th 2012
104
                     lol. ouch.
Jan 11th 2012

      LOL
Jan 05th 2012
