I am very much a music snob and damn proud of it. I grew up on good music and refuse to lower my standards and accept rhythmless bullshit just because the rest of the world has.

Preach cool

Proud to say I am a music snob. I like my music with substance to it. I can't sit back and listen to Sly talking about A Family Affair and then have the same love for most of those artists you named. Those artists except for Amy Winehouse who I have never listened to are dance and fluff music to me.

Sorry Beamie. boxed


No apology necessary. There aren't any rules about what anyone should like or dislike.

for me to say that i ONLY like super deep, super substantial music is like me saying that i will only eat the healthiest, most organically produced, most top notch food i can find. sure, that's a great standard to aspire to, but i'll be damned if i don't wanna snack down on a box of little debbies or scarf down some taco bell once in a while. i think there's a lot of fluffy pop music that has some really interesting texture and craft to it if you're willing to pay attention, and sometimes there's just some really banal, stupid pop music out there that just so happens to be catchy as hell and can catch me in its headlights. i know it's crap, but i'm a sucker for a really catchy melody, so if i like it, i like it. there's a lot of shit i won't give the time of day, but hey - if it saves someone else's life, then great. frank zappa of all people said there's no such thing as "shit music", as long as one person really believes in it. of course, he was hardly one to carry the torch for musical tolerance, but still...nice quote. lol

It's the worse song madonna has. It's like Nile Rodgers did the worse production work with Madonna.

Other album that he produced in that era like diana, notorious or let's dance are galaxies away in terms of quality.

Like a virgin is not true madonna, but just her being a prostitute of the pop charts...


Your hatred for that album is hysterical. lol


nod lol

Just for that, Mike, I'm KEEPING my avatar for awhile longer!! razz

I'm a music snob. The ONLY times I lower my standards is when I'm at a party and they play their music. Some songs are okay to dance to occasionally, but to listen to? HELL FUCKING NO

and must I explain my hate for R.Kelly and Akon AND T-Pain?????!!! lol

Frank Zappa passed away in December 1993. My favorite hip-hop/rap era (88-93) was over by that time.

He may have had a place in his heart for Heavy D.
I seem to remember reading somewhere that he said something like anyone who could work the lyric fa-diddly-diddly-diddly-diddly-diddly-dee into a song was pretty cool. smile

You absolutely love to throw around the term "musical snob." I don't get it.

Madonna - disgusting fucking wench who is only liked by homosexuals who haven't yet understood their homosexual identity.
Justin Timberlake - calling this guy a fucking pansy would be an insult to fucking pansies of the world.
Timbaland - a fucking fatass who steals songs from retro computer music archives and calls them "video games" (fucking shithead, learn your nethack)
Amy Winehouse - pls, if I am going to spend money on a hooker at least I want a good looking one (not one who looks like she was just fucking shot in the face).
MIKA - this guy should be fucking shot in the face.

Ah, now I know why I always end up coming back to the org. touched
