Where has all the good music gone? If I have to listen to
another auto-tuned remix with Nicki Minaj or Rihanna, I might jump off a
bridge. Not to mention the newest Gyote song has been given a “pop” remix just
to play on our local pop music stations. It sucks.
Anyone can be a singer these days, great producers and some
auto-tune can make a star out of just about anyone.
I don’t get it. Back in the day, artists were talented,
wrote their own music and played their own instruments. I bet the members of
LMAFO wouldn’t have the slightest clue what to do with a guitar.
I should have been a teenager in the 60s. I love me some
Beatles, the Mamas and the Papas, CCR, Elvis and the Rolling Stones.
Don’t get me wrong… I have a very eclectic taste in music. I
enjoy all genres. But most importantly, I enjoy talent. The “artists” these days
are performers, putting on an act. They put on a show full of electric-induced
music. Geeze, give me a good costume designer and some dance lessons, and I
could be the next big thing.
Good music touches your soul, makes you feel something,
brings out a good memory. I feel bad that the kids today are going to grow up
listening to the less-than-talented Katy Perry. Introducing them to actual performers,
like Adele, is a much better choice.
Now, this is my opinion… many of you may agree, or agree to
disagree. But I all hope that you can relate to at least ONE good song that
brings you back to an amazing time in your life (I just hope it’s not LMFAO).
