Music's deteriorating. How do we stop it?

[MostEpicSwordy]

I don't listen to the radio anymore. Even the rock stations play crap. I can't even bear most of the music. But I have to admit Lady Gaga is quite catchy. *flinches* Don't kill me! My musical tastes are crazy I can go from listening to Lady Gaga to Bring Me The Horizon. But rap and country kill me. My music MUST either have gratuitous amounts of screaming or be super catchy. Everything else is suck. But I don't like classic rock at all. I'm a freak!

well now.

Lady Gaga? Waht in the- Oh wha-what am I doing here?

[RuneBlade]

Makes me proud that I am a fan of a genre where the musicians actually write, record and play their music by themselves, and most likely deliver brilliantly live too.

All lady gaga songs are the same. She records some lines. Some geeky guy mixes it all and makes it sound like she's singing and all that crap.

Gotta disagree with you here, despite my hatred for pop music. Contrary to popular (apparently) belief, the vast majority of pop singers sing all their stuff. And anyway, Lady Gaga is actually pretty talented, I just hate her for some of the stuff she says (No your music is not insipred by glam rock you idiotic twat)

Anyway, music is entirely subjective. I think techno is horrible, talentless crap, but honestly, if someone put ther enjoys it ( and a lot of people do), it by all means has right to exist. It doesn't affect you too badly.

I respect Lady Gaga, she is a pretty good musician, and plays piano in some of her live performences (whether she is playing or not, it looks real enough for me).

Some of her music has some really complex stuff melodically/harmonically.

*facepalm*

Music isn't deteriorating. It's the people.

Gaga doesn't bother me. She's weird and eccentric, but she's also a songwriter and seems to be trying new things. I respect that a lot more than rapper #454 who sticks to the tried-and-true formula of money and hos.

Let's not lose sight of who the real enemy is here. Ke$ha.

[Uberpwn_w00t]

Ke$ha

OH GOD KILL ME NOW

[HackersTotalMassLaser]

Rappers poppers. And I dunno who Ke$ha is.

I lost interest in this topic now.

Hey look an avocado.

Radio is a sad excuse for a media outlet. Don't give it the attention it doesn't deserve, and you won't be complaining about the death of music.

Don't even.

Don't.

Even.

The government/superiors have put so many measures in place to prevent global warming, racism, and even he prevention of deforestation. These
are important, and they deserve our attention. However, as resources are kept in good measure, and as the world progresses, I've not seen an
attempt at someone forming a good band in quite a while. Okay, there's a few exceptions: Red Hot Chili Peppers, Aphex Twin, Electric 6, etc. But
overall, I think the "sik init" rappers and "you're so beautiful" frat boy prick RnB singers are winning.

Is it me, or does every song recently on the radio just have a monotonous resonating noise in the background with a rapper humming over it? Look at my theory:

1969 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrVDViSlsSM - An instrument is actually used.
1985 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EXxMlIExpo - Instruments still used, but electronic devices are taking over.
2002 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=goxd6n2ires - No talent. Talking is referred to as "rapping" is a muscular black man does it.
2009 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cKnTLrDbcw - Not even a background tune. A buzzing noise and talking.
Possibly 2020? - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BX7Ar3Z-oTo - The future of music?

This is called "deteriorating". Am I predicting the future? I hope not. :p

Eh, depends on the Genre of music man.  You're showing everybody some rock n roll, to rap, to shitty ****ing crap like B.E.P's.  honestly, there is a lot of good rock bands that use instruments even in our age you just need to find em.  Rap has always been electronic for the most part.
