Wait, he's a real person? I thought it was just a meme.

This is a forum on steroids tbh. The rate at which content worth reading is being generated could get you pregnant.

Is that Verone in a Minmatar shirt? That can't possibly be right... can it?

To me, it always looks like he's attempting the "emo swoop" haircut
(circa, 2007 http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NmHOPs9j4rc/SIhwhAM2yVI/AAAAAAAAAZk/Aom3prgi9E0/s400/Newt.jpg),
but because he's 9 his head is too small in diameter, so it ends up going totally horizontal instead of an elegant 25 degree angle.

The death of music came when the kids of the Mickey Mouse club started to rule the American pop music scene (Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears.)

The death of music came when we discarded LPs.

The death of music came when we moved from analog to digital format with music.

The death of music came when all the greats of rock n' roll suffocated in their own vomit, overdosed on drugs or drank themselves to death.

The death of music came when music videos became the primary way of promoting your music.

The death of music came when white boys started playing music of the black folk.

... need I go on?

There will always be good music, you just have to find it, or make it yourself.

So Led Zeppelin, the Stones, Elvis, the Beatles, and Chicago killed music? Michael Jackson's Thriller video didn't revolutionize music into a new level?

I'm only 18, and when I hear today's Auto-Tune pop, I actually think that late 90's pop is better constructed than today's rubbish. Of course, that's bad in itself, but I can't compare to Sinead O'Connor.

Music isn't dead, it's alive and well.

Stop listening to pop music if you think it's dead and you will be surprised at how alive and well music is.

The feelings that I expressed earlier were attempts of conveying the feelings of the people of that time and age reacting to a new status quo in the state of the music.

Personally I feel, when it comes to music, that some days we should still be sitting in trees whooping at each other and throwing poop at each other. Some days I feel that it was not such a good idea to even get out of the ocean. But everyone has that kinds of days.

Some days I stumble upon something specific in this white noise of music of today and find something that gives me an emotional response which I find delightful and reinvigorating.

The fact is that at the moment, partly because of the population explosion partly because of the fact that music is so easily accessible in recorded form from the past 100 years, we have access to more different kinds of music than ever before this time and age. With the personal computer people can quite freely create and mix music into something completely personal, share it through different online mediums and collaborate, if they choose so, with people across the globe.

I may have come off as pessimistic in my last post but actually I am quite the opposite when it comes to music.

What I am pessimistic about is the state of humankind at the moment, especially in the western world.

But that is more hippie shit and not for this thread.

lallara beat me to my first thought:

Why's music dying?

Because: Video killed the Radio Star.

I personally have given up on the radio station that is "aimed" for my age group and listen to a station call "The Q" mostly now which is a mix of classic rock and a few decent songs from when I was about in high school.

In terms of pop music, although I hated her at first, Lady Gaga has some catchy singles. It's not like that disgrace of a singer Ke$ha that's all the rave now. But I'm eclectic in my tastes.

Right now I only listen to 70s and 90s rock, funk, trip hop, alternative hip hop, jazz, and techno. Also the occasional Romantic period composition to keep my piano skills top notch.

I'm almost convinced that Justin Bieber's a rework of the Shaun Cassidy bot.
