Correct. That is indeed a true problem.Originally Posted by Bidoofdude
Oh, and further to your rant post, tell these associates of yours that the latest music is all rubbish. I cannot speak detrimentally enough of the music you kids listen to these days. And I don't say this in the way that my father/grandfather said this to me, in that the style has evolved into something those that came before consider meaningless noise (I put heavy/death metal in that category.)
Music has become a means to an end rather than the end itself. It has become nothing more than a method for the "artist" (and I use that term VERY loosely) to promote and sell their image. And their image usually involves said "artist" in a video clip acting like a 2 bit ho (if a woman), or surrounding themselves with 2 bit hos (if a man), and partaking in activities and behaviours that we generally consider to be detrimental to society.
I just had a look through the ARIA top 50 singles. And really??? The only artist I think deserves to be there is Missy Higgins. WHile I don't really like her music, at least she makes music to express herself and connect with her listeners. Not to get the most bang for buck out of every song and hundreds of potential club remixes.
