I think we need to have a serious discussion about "crap music" |
|
Who do you hate?
I absolutely can't stand Loverboy. No creativity or originality at all. It's like a record executive wrote all their songs.

1. Everything I don't like is crap. |
|
And the people who like what I don't like have shitty taste in music and are insane. Unless we like some of the same things, but dislike some of the same things. I'll let the liberal media sort that one out. It confuses me.

Now I'm going to have "Turn Up The Radio" running through my head until doomsday.

3. Jesus, yes, they were shit. And Foreigner. Rick Springfield. |
|
Bon Jovi. Dokken. And so, so, so, so many more.
I remember seeing Loverboy - the old, bald, fat version - last Fall on some stupid TV show. The lead "singer" asshole is still wearing that goddamn "Footloose" or "Dirty Dancing" style headband fuck thing.
Stupid jackass useless talentless fuckwad.

They haven't recorded for years. It's easy to avoid their entire oeuvre.
I'm losing my hearing, so I don't hate any music, really. One day I know I will be willing to trade one or more limbs to have my hearing back.
But until then, I'm still not going to buy, borrow, or steal anything by Loverboy, and not worry a bit.
Good luck!

6. How about something that's good? |
|
I'm listening to David Bowie's "Low" right now, one of my all time favorites. When it came out, the rock critic establishment hated it, now they've canonized it. That's why I pay no attention to the man behind the typewriter.
Anyway, it is a beautiful record, but rather subdued, dark, maybe nihilistic. Much of it was created yards away from the Berlin wall in 1976, and it is as relevant today as it was then.
Ok, I'm done proseletyzing :)

Aerosmith..."Love in an Elevator" and "Rag Doll"? Most over-rated band in Rock N Roll history. Also, a horrible act live.
There is more crap, but that is one band I can't stand.

It would make me very happy. ;)

13. Classic rock radio sucks. |
|
At least around hee. Occasionally they'll play something that, but most of the time, it's awful. And my roommate has it playing around the clock, and usually sings along to it.

When I was growing up in the 70's, in summer on weekends we'd drive 2 1/2 hours, to my parents' vacation home north of Green Bay.
My dad would insist on this AM station that played "those good time, old time, polka favorites."
So for those 2 1/2 hours, we'd be listening to really crappy polka tunes on a station that would fade to static half the time at random.
How's that for crap music?

On our drives from Portland to Seattle, in the 70's, my Dad would listen to talk radio. We used to hate that. Now, I listen to AAR and my kids complain. :hi:

and there is sound that is not music.
