David-Kuddos on a new approach; but I'm not sure insulting people into doing this is going to work. laugh

In all honesty, I think people REALLY underestimate what it ACTUALLY takes to make some of these songs. Not some half-arsed, "this is as good as anything on the radio" swing-and-a-miss...but the real deal.

If it were actually THAT easy, it would be done MUCH more. It's hard work. I don't care who you are.

If it's not your thing, I think that's totally cool. I say people should like what they like, and write the same way. The charts are not the be-all-end-all in my opinion. FAR from it! Most of the music I like would never chart at all.

It does seem a bit strange though about the number of references to how pathetically easy it would be to do chart sounding songs...yet who has done it? It always has to be cut down to make it sounds like it takes now talent. Show me even 1 song that I can actually put in a playlist with actual other songs on the charts right now and not have it stand out like a sore thumb. Looking for just 1 here.

If you (no one specific here) say how stupid and crappy this kind of music is, yet you can't do it...you are saying some not so great things about your own abilities.

I dislike the sound of screamo music. It is SO NOT my thing. I don't say it's no talent crap though. I would look STUPID if I had to try to play blast beats are sing that way. I'm talking MAJOR embarrassment. I just not a fan of it; and that's about where it ends for me.

I'm glad we have the songs in the user showcase we do. There's a lot of great music there. I do wish we had a tad more genres represented to really showcase not just us, but the flexibility of the product as well. PG Music, in so many ways, has set us up for success. I'm sure at some point, we'll have people who add to what we already have.

Later for now.
