    Everyone can sound good in the studio and no-one sings live anymore. (when it comes to pop.)
    Everyone just lipsinc so they can dance better.

    That's why pop-music is all about their appearance and coreography(sp?).

    I hate it when people who like to think they're music connoisseurs sit around and rip on anything that's popular just because they can. <i>"I'm cool,"</i> they like to say, <i>"because I'm DIFFERENT! I listen to PUNK! Which is way cooler than dumb old POP!"</i>

    Well, damn. There's good stuff and bad stuff in ALL genres. I refuse to be so fake and controlled by the tastes of other people that I will or won't like something because other people do or don't. I can't stand Britney Spears, but I also can't stand half of the screaming disgruntled teenagers out there who wrote a doggerel poem and own a guitar and thus think that they're an awesome punk band/rock band/whatever. Music isn't inherently bad because it's popular. It's not inherently good because it's not. Not all things must have intense depth, because then there would be no comparision and it would all be shallow again. What's the fun in life if you can't sing karaoke to something fluffy and pointless sometimes, instead of taking EVERYTHING seriously?

    So...yeah. I'll just get down off my soapbox now and go listen to some Pink Floyd/Judy Garland/Offspring/Hanson/E Nomine/Porno Graffitti/Mozart/Blink 182/Avril Lavigne/Beach Boys/Beatles/Edith Piaf/Olivia Lufkin/Orbital/Culture Club/Rammstein/FF Soundtracks/Whatever. It's all music to me *^_^*
    Popping up like a psychotic jack-in-the-box to get the Oldbies off their rocking chairs on the EoFF Assisted Living Home's porch >=D

    If it sounds good I listen to it. I couldn't care less if the artist is shallow or manufactured.
