It's official.. Talent in music is dead.

[milehigh]

There is actually a Billboard top 25 Rock Category. I listen to all music, even the new stuff. Try to keep an open mind to everything. I just don't don't like the new country though... just lacks somehow to me. That's only me though.

As far as the New Rock goes, there are some shadows of hope, such as the Black Keys. Foo Fighters, Chili Peppers, Young the Giant, Foster the People had some ok tunes. Not a vintage year for rock, far from it. But as long as there is a glimmer of hope, you never know.

The Top 100 had some good tunes overall. Some good singers. Give them that, and some of it entertaining.

Trying to keep an open mind to everything - even listen to "bad stuff". Shit, I'll listen to anything... send me your demos.

 

[Tdot'sFinest]

Please, let's not get this twisted up and call this "hip hop." This is just straight crap.

True.. She rips off Madonna, Bowie and Mercury.. But at least the bitch can sing, play an instrument and write her OWN songs.

and she has more cash in the bank than all 3 combined...not bad for a 27 yr old

 

[Mervyn]

What is a stupid how ?

 

[y2kmark]

Admit that the bathtub ad was more entertaining than the video, but it's hardly proof that music is dead.

 

[ogibowt]

okay , heres the thing....im old and i think Otis Reddingis one of the greatest singers in the history of modern music....and he had a hit with Sittin on the Dock Of The Bay in 1967....fast forward to todays "stars"....Coldplay, Pearl jam, John Mayer, all of whom, covered this song...and all 3 fuckin butchered it.....enough said about todays music

signed,," crochety old man who is stuck in the 60,s"

Paul McCartney is too old. Freddie is dead. Lennon is dead. U2 is too old. MJ is dead. Michael Hutchene is dead. Stones are too old. Kiss is too old. Jim Morrison is dead. Kurt Cobain was suppose to be the current musical genius. Chili Peppers ran outta gas. Stevie Wonder is too old....etc..

:faint:Nickleback sucks
Pearl Jam sucks
Foo Fighters sucks



Not only in the music industry but all around. The workforce is so corrupt with lack of skilled workers and women are controlling the world to destruction.

 

[WoodPeckr]

^^^ Sad but true, in general Pop....or whatever it's called today sucks.

Jazz, OTOH is doing quite nicely, thank you....

 

[Steve~]

I guess Jazz is the only place where you'll find competent musicians nowdays.

 

[sidebanger]

sinatra was an average singer at best. anyone can sound good doing what he does. how many clones are out there right now that do the exact same thing with the exact same sound and he wasn't even the original of the era. he surrounded himself with talent so his averageness wouldn't be exposed. if was the legend he created of himself that drew people in.

You are out of your mind. Fuck.

Eliane is Magnifique

Indeed!

Here's just a sample....

magnificent

not really. some black dude from a car wash just got to be famous for sounding like sinatra. everyone can do it. he was a lifestyle that people wanted, not a real talent.

 

[milehigh]

You have to relax your mind and "just go " with the new artists. Here is a Rock Classic to help a transition, possibly.

The new music is great to have playing during sex.

 

[simon482]

so she doesn't know anything of the song but the chorus. that's cool for her.

I think I just threw up a little.

I think I just threw up a little.

i am proud of her knowing the chorus to a famous song. must have taken weeks to learn.

Wow which ones don't belong in that list......Inxs (standard pop) and Kiss (influential for stage show and marketing and die hard fans but more gimmick than anything else).

Kiss rank low in heavy metal lists or hard rock lists in my opinion.

Pearl Jam peaked with 10 and it was downhill fast from there. I will say that 10 can be listened to from beginning to end.

There's some decent death metal coming out of Sweden at the moment. Check out Archenemy.
