My irony

The other morning, flipping channels, I stopped at MTV and VH1- both were playing sappy music; the kind of music that I hate. The kind of music you expected VH1 to play back in the very early 90's- before it became "cool", I mean a clone of MTV. You know, that slow, whiney, male-singing disjointed crap that is so popular these days. I thought I would vomet. Once again I thought "how can this crap be so damn popular? I hated shit like this when I was a teenager; why the hell are they buying this crap? Damn bunch of pansies anyway..." All this passed through my mind in four flips, until I got to The View, which I never watch. And there she was, a little, blonde slice of heaven, singing an accoustic version of "Time After Time". Thank you Cindi Lauper, for brightening up my day. I don't know what kids are thinking these days, I swear.

*sigh*

Katy,

I know ;D

Susie,

I just turned thirty, so I listened to Cindi when I was younger. It was Pearl Jam and Nirvana and Motley Crue when I was a teenager. All music still more "robust" than today's dog doo doo.

Everyone, FredCQ has another blog called Doomed To Rock at http://doomedtorock.blogspot.com/. He goes on more about undigested food, music and other stuff over there.

Young girly, back in MY day (the Geezer Rock Age), my parents said the same thing.

(I didn't know what the hell your post was talking about until I came to a name I recognized: Cindi Lauper. I did, I recognized her.)

Have a great day!

Candace, I just have such a hard time buying into what is popular these days. What I listened to and what was on all the time, was so much harder than what is so popular today! It is kind of opposite of what problems you parents had with the kind of music you listened to. I think these kids are turning into a bunch of pansies, and are falling for that soft crap. It bothers me becasue I DON'T WANT TO LISTEN TO IT! In the truck, I play a cd or listen to the local am station- the "oldies" channel. I'd much rather hear Elvis than Kanye West!

FredCQ- I'm sorry. I think Susie was just teasing you.
