American music has never been worse.
You thought Justin Bieber was bad?
YouTube - Rebecca Black - Friday (OFFICIAL VIDEO)
This has 30 MILLION views on youtube.
What happened to substance? What happened to integrity? This is great big whoredom, and everyone in the mainstream industry has completely sold out.
Songs like this make me wish I was born 50 years ago when music was real and people had to have more than a pretty face to get somewhere (more often than not). What enrages me more is the fact that people actually listen and pay for this garbage. I can't think of a more mind numbing, brain washing activity other than watching certain cable news programs.

I bet 99.9% of those views were just to see what was so funny. I worry about the other .1%.
It gets worse, the company that produced the video/song churns these things out like an assembly line. read this: Who the Hell Made Rebecca Black's 'Friday' Video? | City Sound Inertia

Music is being mathematically designed to appeal to children's brains, theres no art to it anymore.

Foo Fighters ans Green Day are releasing new albums, they were never on American Idol.
I know Green Day did the Broadway thing, but that's closing.
Of Course Led Zeppelin sounds best cruising in the C900

I liked Green Day before they got political.

I turned it ALL off about 10 years ago. I am sick of negativity, shock bull shit, in your face, politics and deviant social nonsense.
The music I once found corny, I now find some comfort in.
Screw the nihilism of Paint Shit Black, Pink Flyod and any other Brit shit. You live in a crummy rainy and sad part of the world but thank you for sharing? Bruck in the wall? No darling, you are an extra special brick?
Yeah, "burned" all of my Dead and Allmans tool.
I think I'll put on "Moon Out Tonight" and remember high school and life "Pre The Nam".

You have to watch the Friday vid. It's like a sonic car accident; you can't help but look.
Be warned though- your ears can't unhear what they heard. I'm still not certain it isn't a joke.
I've never watched one minute of American Idol either. No desire to at all. It's bad enough to get bombarded with AI shiet on all the major media outlets.
I like very little from the past 10 years or so. There's enough stuff from before that to keep me satisfied. I really don't have the time or inclination to absorb anything newer. Pre mp3 era, I do have 400+ CDs, about 25 records, ~100 tapes- so I like a ton of stuff.
I swear, I've never knowingly heard a Lady Gaga song. Same goes for Justin Beiber, Black Eyed Peas, Taylor Swift, and many others. Just like AI, you get bombarded with articles about them on news outlet sites so that's the only way I even know who they are.
