"it doesn't make you cool to hate pop culture."

four.

hey you guyyyys!
thanks to Blogger's unique automatic saving feature, i have a post to present to you today! rejoice!

listening to:
lady gaga and britney spears.
do not throw the harpoon!

i actually used to be the first to throw the harpoon. i'm a major advocate for obscure music. i may actually be a junkie. i love me some Jukebox the Ghost, Antsy Pants, Of Montreal, Jack's Mannequin, etc.

but i've been listening to the radio lately and being slightly okay with it.

because honestly, it's all art in one way or another.
like lady gaga says, it's not cool to hate pop music anymore.
and sometimes it's just about having fun.

so i've learned to embrace it.

mind you, i'm not listening to any nickelback/kings of leon/daughtry/shinedown/hinder.
that dude needs to calm down, making music for all those bands at once.

i rarely listen to rap and i never listen to country.
i don't like music that follows a basic outline (e.g. "bitches, pimps, and whores" and "i got so drunk on sour mash and married my girlfriend of two hours who also happens to be my first cousin").

but pop music can be good.

i think what i like about lady gaga and britney spears is their display of the darker, more minor-key aspect of synth-pop.

abrupt ending.

peace.
