Music has hit an all time low. I can appreciate popular music from literally every decade over the past century except for this one.

Of course there are exceptions, but in general the music reflects the youth of today, and it isn't good news. Materialistic, shallow, entitled.

lol okay grandpa zod

i see some of the same things in the shows my daughter likes to watch that are considered kids shows. lots of over-the-top sass and disrespect. we've really started cutting back on what she's allowed to watch and trying to get her outside as much as possible. unfortunately i know that most of her friends at school have the same kind of attitudes and they are feeding off of each other....and she's only in 2nd grade.

 

but then, at least as far as music goes, the 80's had a lot of shallowness to them coming out of the disco drenched late 70s. and then they moved to a lot of emo crap in the 90s because they mostly had parents that were self-absorbed and more interested in their careers and their happiness than their kids. when those kids became parents i think they may have inherited their parents self-absorbing tendencies, but tried to overcompensate by spoiling their kids and created the shallow and entitled kids we see today.

 

i do think that there is a break in that and quite a few people are trying to go back to more what we might consider more traditional family settings or at least trying to get back to a simpler more family focused type of life. it's going to be hard because i think we've all gotten addicted to getting more and more stuff.

I think you are right. Current day is a lot like the 80s. Excess, narcissism, materialism. It was garbage music then and again now.

The good news is something new and better will come along soon and squash it.... Hopefully.

 

Ugh, I'm not sure I want to experience the digital age's answer to "grunge."

Sigh...what ever happened to dedicating years into an instrument or voice lessons?

Now all you need is a computer and a 'beat' and the masses eat it up. What a joke. It's comical to see any argument of talent in this thread.

Music is not the same as performing/acting, music has nothing to do with visual aesthetics or 'hotness'; I think many of you are confused.

Many rappers, RB, and pop music today are performers/actors/computer producers not musicians.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.

      With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By frankw · Posted

      We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
