Description
I don't really agree that much with this stamp anymore, keeping it around for everyone else~Music has changed over the years, yes. There are many, if not thousands, of genres; and just because one is different to your tastes does not mean they're bad or talentless. A song can be either instrumentally or lyrically brilliant, if not both.
Another thing, just because something is popular does not automatically mean it's good or bad.

Try telling that to Lady Gaga and rapper Psy-they don't have ANY talent at all!

Do you remember when was Skillet still relevant?
No? Neither do I.
The 9-year Kiddies celebrate only Justin Bieber.

It still does. The only difference is that people nowadays just like being complacent with the crap they give us.

I dislike a large portion of modern music- I don't enjoy rap, almost all of it is about sex, hot bods,
money, and blazin' it up. There are good musicians though.

Are you saying I have no talent just because I'm a modern musician?

I've never heard your music nor can I really say it's good or bad. Β Like I said, a lot of people, not all, in the music industry don't exactly seem like they really belong there; they might be talented dancers, or have a pretty face, but they can neither sing, compose, or help out in any way with the music they "do". Β I honestly have a lot of mixed opinions on this matter, and it constantly changes--when I first made this stamp, I had a completely different opinion behind it. Β I still keep the deviation up because people seem to like it, though their opinions may vary from mine.
So no, I bet your music is fantastic and if you're not satisfied with it, I am absolutely certain you'll improve it to your own liking, and I wish you good luck with that.
Have a nice day, and sorry if I offended you or made you feel uncomfortable in any way. Β c:

It's not that you can't just make it. Nobody can make music. Music is born, not made. It grows as multiple artist contribute to it. It breaths the air (Or the smoke, depending on the musician). It feeds on our creativity. It travels around the world, finding shelter in the hearts and ears of people. Music is a living thing, and can not be processed from a computer.
I agree that music should require some level of talent. Because it's a language. And unless you are fluent in that language, you can't give birth to music.
Sincerely,
A guitarist, pianist, bassist, songwriter, and poet.

I sympathize with this so much... Although I don't know much about Linkin Park, I strongly agree with the point that auto-tuned, generic stuff is NOT good music, if it can even be considered as such. I personally like opera and more classical styles, especially Contemporary and Baroque, and especially the 1800s~

I grew up on opera and classical music, my mom's part of an orchestral chorus, so we listened to that kind of music very often. XD I'll check out some of it. C:

Yeah, I actually grew up on a lot of stuff, we had an odd mix of opera with nu-metal and rock, Spanish 80's pop, Madonna, and Enya o:

XD That is a strange mix! Which opera is your favorite?

I don't really have a favorite XD; Yours?

I completely agree with you. I actually rejoice when I hear a song that doesn't have Autotune and/or the words "boy", "yo", "sexy", or "heart" in it. This is why I never purchase billboard songs on iTunes anymore, as long as it's about something OTHER than, breakups, love, or is hypersexual. Those are the three categories it seems music must fall into to gain popularity.
There is a fourth category I am now aware of, now that my bus driver has started playing rap music on the ride to school. Music can now be popular if it's about nightclubs and getting high. That's almost worse than the overly-romantic teen-pop-star garbage.
Another artist I'd reccomend is the Russian singer Regina Spektor. She is highly underrated, but her music is about how society treats people and has more positive messages. I guess that's why she's underrated? People think that negative messages equal fame?
The music industry is really getting under my skin.

I completely agree, and I'll look her up; she sounds interesting.

You'll probably like her.

Yeah.... it's not different here in Hungary either. Ergo here is that stupid Nigerian dude who sings a not even rhyming hungarian song while he can't speak hungarian normally (aka I don't understand 80% of the song), and all this pasted on a copied melody. Now this sh.t is the song of the summer.... No comment.

Half of the songs today almost ALWAYS talk about sex, rape, some (unusually) hot girl, partying, and drugs. 'Tis not something people can relate too....

There's a purple heart on the stars and stripes tonight
It's pinned to the chest of the latest liar
And if you try to speak your mind
They tell you keep it to yourself
You got friends in the armed forces
They wanna know which side you're on
Doesn't matter cause we'll all be off
To train, to fight
Disregard our human rights
To play the part
The consciense of the damned
You say you're defending me
I'm sick of tying yellow ribbons
Praying not to see
Another folded flag to a mourning lover
He was an army of one but they'll find another
And in the fold of the body bag
Somebody check for a heart
You got friends in the armed forces
Now we know what a soldier costs
It's the cost of the rest of us
To take a life
We all have our price
The wife and kids sleep soundly in their beds
You say you're defending me
I'm untying yellow ribbons
On every single tree I see
They'll float like butterflies back home
And I can feel the desert's heat
When you're standing next to me
Friendship offers no relief
Stay with me now, just hear me out
Don't want to lose you to that great black cloud
Coming down
You see in the path a bullet makes
When it calls you by your name
And the medic can't play the rythym of your heart
So it starts to fade like footsteps in the march
The parade passes by our fingertips
As lives once were right
To change our minds
Everything that's wrong looks right
The lives we lead
Are somewhere in between
You say you're defending me
I'm sick of tying yellow ribbons
Praying not to see
We're not going to hell
To run rings around a wishing well
THERES SOME GOOD SHIT RIGHT DER FRIENDS IN THE ARMED FORCES- THURSDAY

I hate justin biebers songs, but I admire the fact that he plays so many instruments. but the fame has gone to his head.
whatever happened to picking up a guitar or some drumsticks, getting a singer and working hard to make it to the top?
now all u have to do is make a repeptitive computer beat, make up ryhmes and talk them out instead of singing.

Yep, hard to find good music these days :/
