What I guess I am trying to say is that you guys should all go listen to some quality music from the past, and maybe some Alternative! Haha I know if Fionna reads this she will totally agree. :) Well go listen to something other than Thrift Shop people!! :) give your ears a break.
Recently, I've been lamenting on the commonly overlooked music of the past. A lot of the time, people listen to just modern music(pop, and rap, and all of that.) I just don't understand. I think pop and rap are mainly based on a lot of jumbled up love stories made with a whole bunch of cliche lyrics and situations. No. That's not what good music is! If you look back at older bands like The Beatles and Pink Floyd, you really see how unique and cool music can be. I mean look at the song "Wish you were here" in comparison to "What makes you beautiful." There is no comparing. I think One Direction really doesn't have great song writing talent, while Pink Floyd uses great unique lyrics, with metaphors, and everything like that.(Even though it is shorter than a lot of modern day pop songs, it has way more of a point.)

I am one of those people who loves any kind of music you give me, I love it all....with a few exceptions for some utterly terrible songs

I see your point. My favorite song is time by pink Floyd, but I still think some modern songs are good.

Lucy, that is offending my entire life. Ouch. I feel like I've been shot through the soul. It's so sad that you can't see the quality on One Direction's music. I pity you, Lucy, and the fact that you are a directionator. (person who hates one direction)

Sorry Emily... but I agree. However there are a lot of good bands that are making music today that are not pop music or utterly terrible *coughcoughonedirection* such as Cage the Elephant, Mumford and Sons, Passion Pit, Florence and the Machine, etc. etc. etc. but yea I agree that some old music is better than music today. Also don't forget about old U2 songs, the old ones are awesome but the new ones like "get on your boots" are like a joke...

Modest Mouse, Snow Patrol, The Fray, the list goes on and on, my point being if you want to listen to good music there is plenty out there

But the older stuff is good! It paved the way for many musicians of today.
