Serious question: Why is dark and drepressing considered a value in music? I'm so bored with it. Mind you I'm an ani fan and she can get outright depressing. I'm just wondering. General question and all. It seems that in order for music to be taken seriously is has to be dark and/or depressing. It's so high school. I'll admit my music collection is probably 60 percent "dark," but I'm bored with it all. Quit your whining I say and write some fucking inspirational music to help the masses cope with this crazy world.
mad


as for Tom Waits...I don't get him. My roommate adores him. His music might be good but I can't get past his "singing," which is painful for my ears.


i thought the same thing till one of my fellow girlbros. made me a collection of waits earlier work and discovered his voice was much gentler then today.

yes, he described (with a smirk) his own voice as having become "more manageable."

His voice is the biggest hurdle to liking his music. But once you get past it, it actually becomes one of his greatest assets.

He says he likes to be like an old tree, all twisted and rough & knotty.
