oh dope posted:My entire life, I have been utterly confused about the popularity of Queen. They're just not that good. Bohemian Rhapsody is a loving annoying song. I hate it so, so, so, so, so, so, so much. It's obnoxious, distinctly uncatchy, and over-long. There is absolutely nothing appealing about it, and yet 99% of the human population seems to love it. I wish I understood.

Yall wouldn't know a charismatic and legendary singer if you were in an 80,000+ crowd singing along with his vocal warm ups. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DuoBTJdmds

If you like radiohead you instantly have no credibility in regard to music choice. You should never be allowed to run the boombox at the party.

You know that band that is an all-time great? They suck. That singer that most people think is amazing? Can't sing. That symphony that has been loved for 400 years? Total rear end. Brittney Spears was never good.

If we’re talking about songs that are way too long and suck rear end, Hey Jude. It could be faded out after the first few “na na na na”s keeping it at around four minutes instead of over eight, and it would still suck lovely rear end. Such a dumb obnoxious song. Except for when it’s done by Wilson Pickett. Then it’s a loving masterpiece: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0y8Q2PATVyI

She talks like a modern day youth because she's like 19  Unpopular Opinion: I don't get what it is with 'electronic music' where indie producers/groups/whatever you'd call them?? get super shared and super hyped up and then you go and listen to it and it's either really sparse 'spacey' instrumentals and spoken word vocals with glitch effects, or plinky plonky synthpop that's so straightforward a new wave group from the 80s would feel embarrassed to call it a finished composition - but it's intentionally a 'naive' vibe so it's okay. Also usually accompanied with similarly straightforward blunt but relatable lyrics by someone with the most 'average' voice imaginable, usually some guy with a limited high baritone range and very light tone that sings like a second year choir student, technically competent with little to no personality or flair.

I cannot get into Frank Zappa. I’ve tried. I get that he’s like the granddaddy of all the other hosed up weirdo music I love but Zappa’s whole smart rear end hippie shtick just never clicks with me. There are songs and other moments I like but I mostly don’t enjoy listening to anything in his catalog even though so many of my favorite bands would name him as an influence. It checks all the boxes of music I should like but actually listening to it is tiresome to me. The stuff that’s supposed to be funny isn’t funny. But I like Zappa in interviews and quotes from him and stuff. I think he was really smart. Sorry Frank.

She sucks mostly because you can't understand what the gently caress she's saying 95% of the time because speaking in deep guttural half-whispers is apparently music

Nthing the Queen thing. I liked them enough as a kid/teen because my mum and grandpa were super into them and it was like an emotional bonding thing, but overplaying/overhyping has kind of ruined that even. Just the most pretentious boring annoying songs ever. Also whoever said Trip-Hop is the best genre is my buddy

Anything that's been played to death on the radio, films or adverts for decades loses all emotional resonance. To pretend otherwise is to desperately cling to a different time, imo.
