Bid Farewell to Crap Music Good morning! - I stopped listening to the radio the way I had been used to around 12 years ago because I found that it was gradually getting to me and aggravating me to the point where I would even throw occasional fits in my car or at home. Listening to music had finally started to seriously bother me. I am not talking about music in general, no I am referring to that kind of disharmonious three- to four- minute noise patches that had slowly but surely managed to infiltrate our music scene on a scarily large scale. Just listen consciously into the sort of musical harassment that is usually played throughout a 24- hour period on most public stations.
It truly makes my stomach flip and my hair stand up! You talk about harmonious, harmless even though at times quite trivia- natured lyrics that are vocally presented excellently. Well, I hate to bust your bubble, but this is history, I'm afraid. Today shows such as The Voice, The X- Factor, American Idol, and much more mislead mostly young and immature would- love- to- be- famous contestants by seriously making them believe that they are the real deal and that they can be turned into superstars overnight. For God's Sake, just read into some of the greatest musical icons' bios, and you will find that they all had one major thing in common. Not one of them was born or made a star just like that.
They all started at the bottom and worked their way up lavishly and zealously. By the time they stepped into the public lime- light for real, they had successfully acquired a set of tools necessary to stay at the peak for quite some time. Outstanding vocals, lots of charisma, extra- ordinary show presence, and a great deal of passion to share with their audiences was what a real superstar was made of back then. Nowadays it is often completely reversed. In fact, you need not have any of these qualities anymore but instead someone influential enough who believes in you to become their cash cow. The focus has clearly shifted from those good old values to aggressive, pointless and trashy lyrics, vulgar and sexual mannerism on stage such as grabbing one's crotch or exposing one's sparsely- clothed body like a pole dancer, zero showmanship qualities, partly annoyingly crappy voices, dull and tribal- like beats, and overall no- class stage outfits. Music styles have become popular which just depress the crap out of anyone with still some sense of melodiousness left.
Believe it or not, but just like with anything else in a world of polarities, there are also two sides to music, a light and a dark one. Hence due to the fact that music, universally speaking, connects the whole world on a conscious as well as subliminal level, beware of the powerful negative vibes that some genres and styles knowingly generate and convey! If you want to stay healthy in your body, mind and spirit, do yourself a favor and stay away from this garbage music, which no doubt is eventually taking over. Instead go and learn an instrument, and devote your love for music to creating positive music yourself.
