    When will people cease to assume that popular music is supposed to equal good music?

    I see no Grace Jones, therefore it's rubbish.

    They're re-releasing every Elvis song ever in order to wring some cash out of the man's corpse.

    When will people cease to assume good music is only good if they listen to it?

    Popular music is good music. Whether you like it or not isn't determined by that...that's up to you, but popularity means they've suceeded in entertaining the most people, and that's what it's about - entertaining/making money. For the individual it may not be, but for music as an industry it is.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    Well man, you're sort of wrong. Popular music isn't good music, it's entertaining music but it has low musical value do to it's repetitiveness and lame lyrics. Most of the time there are barely any instruments in the songs, how do you wanna call that music? Anyhow, the answer is never. If people stopped assuming that, record companies would all go bankrupt. That is the point of record companies, to make something "cool" and "hot" enough so people will buy it, they don't care if it sounds like donkey orgasms. Basically, they prey on people's stupidity, as do many other things for that matter...

    Actually.

    Popular music is good music, but it's good music to the majority, because in order to be popular you need a majority.

    The quality of music is a subjective thing, I call it a shovel, you call it a spade, in the end no matter what you call it still digs holes.
