[OldSkool]

I'm with Batchainpuller and JoePorto here - and if you really want me to say why you're going to get an earfiul. lt's just that to me, and I've been obsessed with music for almost 40 years and played multiple instruments and sung for over 30, the $hit you're talking about sounds like only 11-year old girls could possibly like it, and that it was designed, and I use that term very literally, from the ground up, to appeal to 11-year old girls.

It is stupid, robotic, involves no actual musicians or compositional/arrangement skills, and lacks syncopation so is rhythmically dull as dishwater, which for dance music is pathetic. Dance music used to be so engaging that you could listen to it for hours on end, whether or not you were dancing, but that has been stomped on and killed by "producers" who have no feel for rhythm and use machines to create their beats - beats a little kid could learn to program in minutes.

You suggest some of us might not listen to this infantile boring dreck because we think it's cool. Music is my f*cking RELIGION, man, and what I think is that if you listen to everything under the sun - classical, bubblegum, and world beats - it's because you do not have a discriminating ear and an emotional connection to music. Maybe it's all just a background roar to you, the soundtrack to your morning drive or your morning dump.

If this attitude makes me a "dinosaur", an "old lady" as some dumbasses tend to characterize it, all I can say is I am one proud and happy dinosaur.
