I don't mind old pop music. Or anything that would be considered cool Top 40 Radio. Gansta Rap: That's on its way out. Justin Timberlake: Ugh! I don't know what people see in that self-indulgent #$$%&^ Kanye West. The self professed #$$%&^. If I think of anything else I'll repost it here.

Seriously, though, I remember when Cher's "Believe" came out, taking a "secret" production tool that "fixes" flat vocals and making it an element of the song itself. I couldn't stand it then, and now it's in almost every song you hear on pop radio. Hm... might be why I avoid commercial radio... _________________ Matthew Wayne Selznick Chief Evangelist http://www.retroland.com

Saucerian Member Since: August 2009 Contributions: 287 Gold Stars: 21 View User Posts	Re: Music you don't like Posted: Wed Oct 07, 2009 3:58 pm Central Time I grew up with Country music, which is why I detest it so much. You can only listen to 'My Woman, My Woman, My Wife' so many times before something snaps. Really, though, I can sort of enjoy very old school stuff, Hank Williams and Johnny Cash and the like, and some of the freakier stuff from the 60's and 70's is fun in a kitschy sort of way. But it seems like Country's evolved into the blues for people whose lives really aren't all that bad. My line used to be, heavy metal's for people who are incredibly stupid and pissed off about it; Country's for people who are too stupid to be pissed off about it; and rap's for people who are too stupid to realize they're not even singing. But then, I love Tiny Tim, so what do I know?

Are you crazy? HAVE YOU TRIED Stevie Ray Vaughan George Thorogood Eric Clapton ZZ Top If those don't convince you, nothing will. Then again, my sister doesn't like country rock. _________________ Oh Gloria, with hair like granite.

I can't stand her anyway, so I really don't give a rat's hiney) Journey (GAG) Most hair bands I found simply an embarrassment to the music community. Michael Bolton Rick Springfield and Bon Jovi.

Everything else is music. view All I don't like by Journey is "Lovin' Touchin' Squeezin'". I can only hear "Na na na na" for so long. What's wrong with hair bands? They're just the counterculture of the 70s/80s. Are you a member of Jon Bovi? _________________ Oh Gloria, with hair like granite.
