Rap
You're a bad dude... or at least that's what you try to tell everybody. I have the sneaking suspicion though that you've never actually shot a dozen clowns, burned down a jail, or any of the other things you claim to have done. Word.
Oldies
I'm sorry, I don't care how great you thought your music was back then and how bad you think modern music is, you're wrong! All of your songs were about one of five things:
1) Some boy or girl who doesn't really love you as much as you think they do. They probably don't even know you exist.
2) Drugs. Yes, all those strange references you thought sounded cool but didn't really know what they meant were actually about drugs. I'm looking at you tambourine man!
3) Cars. Your old piece of junk wasn't that cool, get over it.
4) Rock and Roll. Yep, you wrote music about your music. I just don't get it.
5) How much the older generation/establishment loved war and how they should be like you and love the four things listed above.
Country
You and it have come along way in the last ten or so years. It's gone from being a bunch of twangy noises about trucks, beer, and cheating spouses to becoming Rock and Roll's little brother who finally gets to wear "the big boy pants." You in comparison have... wait, how have you changed again?
Techno
You like to take little bits of something good and pour into one giant pot, thereby creating a result that is less then what you started with. It's kind of like when little kids take their mashed potatoes, corn, chocolate milk, sweet potato pie, and rice and mix them all together into a gray pile and then dare each other to eat the vile concoction.
Pop Rock
You're easily swayed by what's new and cool, even if it's not something you yourself enjoy. You also probably wear all the trendy clothes, drive an SUV, eat only food endorsed by TV celebrities, and have no actual meaning in your life. Radical!
Metal (a.k.a. heavy metal)
You like things that are loud and intense. Could this be because these activates drown out the nagging feelings of inadequacy? Of course I feel safe saying this to your face since every metal fan has gone deaf.
Elevator music
Ouch! Words make me head feel hurt. Me no like words.
Parody songs
You think you're hilarious! You're the bee's knees. You're the cats meow. You're the greatest thing since sliced bread. You rock out loud. Sadly though, none of those things are true.
Any music whatsoever
This maybe my inner psychoanalyst talking but it is my esteemed opinion that your interest in music, regardless of genre, is an overt manifestation of your unfulfilled sexual desires. Either that, you just like the rhythms.

Post a CommentI honestly think that the only reason that you bash on every type of music is just that you can't appreciate any of it. You are just pissed that others get to enjoy themselves while you sit basking in a complete lack of understanding of music.
Great article. I laughed. I enjoyed. I can't stop reading these...that must mean that you are pretty good! :-)
It's really up to you to decide if a song from 28 years ago is an "oldie." Late seventies borders on not being an oldie in my opinion. I'll check out your song though.
Interesting. One of my favorite songs of all time is 28 years old and its about how the views and opinions that accept are natural outgrowths of their individual worldview have actually been inculcated through the particular social structures in which they grew in an attempt to divert you from realizing that that structure is organized specifically to distract you from seeing things as they really work. Maybe you should try listening to oldies that aren't about the five limited subjects you mention and you too will understand that mass produced images don't authentic emotions. The song, in case you want to take a listen, is "Natural's Not In It" by Gang of Four.
