No wonder you didn't like the Black Eyed Peas...
You are a musical phenom...
There is a place in the pop world for the BEP's, I repect that, if you are a fan, I respect that, it's all subjective, what's good to some is crap to others.
I'll give the BEP's credit because they have ideas, and they are creative, and they have won multiple Grammys, and they are only one of a few acts to have the number 1 and number 2 singles on the Billboard Top 100 single chart at the same time, so you can't argue their success.
What's the old adage?
"A million people can't be wrong"
You know what I say?
"Why not"
Music phenom, I would go that far, but that was nice of you to say, music lover is more like it. But that was nice of you to say.
I don't play anymore, I just listen now.
But there is a lot of very good music today coming from kids half my age, here is a video from my favorite band
This what I consider great. (and they are about half my age)
This video clip is about his (Brandon Flowers) mom, who battled cancer.
He refers to 'Cindarella" as his mom.
He refers to 'The Devil' as the cancer eating away at his mom.
Listen to the lyrics closely, you'll understand it's about his dad first meeting his mom, his mom then getting cancer "Devil wrapping up his hands"....
Watch his mannerisms as they pertain to the lyrics.
Listen to the chord changes...
This is what I consider incredible, genius.
LIVE, not recorded but LIVE
You'll appreciate this.
