Chaps Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 I'm really out of touch with pop music because I've never heard of any of those songs. The only 'Manchild' song I know is 'Two-Bit Manchild' by Neil Diamond, which I played the heck out of on my guitar back in high school. Good times... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rain Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 (edited) This is a little off-topic but, brother... I just cannot stand the sound modern vocals. Even putting aside the whole vocal tuning debate and regardless of how talented the singer is. Two seconds and I feel like yelling "get off me". Generally speaking, there's just no room for the listener in modern music. But I'm an old geezer. Edited June 28 by Rain 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vocals sound so over-compressed that every little sound is exaggerated. No dynamics at all. I could listen to Eva Cassidy sing live with a cold all day. She sang from the heart and the recordings didn't get in the way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wibbles Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 From what I gather from this video, Rick is saying the pop music industry is the same as it was in the 1960s. Albeit in the 60s you would frequently have the same song recorded by two different artists released at the same time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigb Posted June 28 Share Posted June 28 Kind of like how Coca Cola and Pepsi now are owned by the same corporation? 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigb Posted Saturday at 10:00 PM Share Posted Saturday at 10:00 PM Just watched this today (which probably showed up in my YouBoob feed due to listening to M above! 😆). It was pretty interesting! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starship Krupa Posted Monday at 06:59 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:59 PM It occurs to me that Tony Burrows is the perfect artist for Adam's schtick. "Professor Rock" seems to have a special place in his heart for one hit wonders and Burrows generated 5 of them. The video for "Pop Muzik" is so great. Looking at it today, was Robin Scott like Nostradamus or something? As for Rick Beato, I think even he gets that people are getting tired of his hating on the hits of the current day. I've never cared for it myself. Wow, he listens to the top 10 most popular songs of the day and concludes that they mostly suck. To use his own question: how can he not know that about pop music? At any given moment in the history of there being such a thing as top 10 songs, most of them will be forgettable, saccharine tripe. "Forgettable" being the operative word. We don't remember how crappy pop music of the past was because the songs themselves are not memorable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
