I actually agree with you to a degree. I was thinking about this lately. But maybe not in the same way as you. But I feel like I keep buying albums that I assume I should love. And then I don't. And I'm let down. I feel like with each passing year, the number of new records that impress me dwindles. And that worries me. Is it me? Or the music?

I don't personally think there are that many things wrong with any music, it's only when you see so many attitudes/ultimately irrelevant lifestyles attached to it that make it sound more important and less enjoyable than it is that puts me off it.

oh oh oh. I misunderstood. I tend to be really good at keeping the music and the people separate.

Musicians are overrated

music cannot be rated high enough

Admittedly I've always been a little less adventurous as many who post on Non-Sonic Sounds but even by my own standards I've been listening to less music recently. Reading is taking up more of then time I would usually give to music.

I really thought that M.I.A. rocked back when Paper Planes was a new hit.

That's one single I got tired of pretty quickly. Advertisements still haven't, though.

^ True. IDK, even though it was overplayed I thought that it was actually well written.

That's not true. I'm not even pointing out the obvious, 'cause you must know that you're talking bollocks.

I wouldn't say music is overrated at all, but lyrics (or the message) is always overrated, and often irrelevant to a good song. I think Sonic Youth have figured this out cause most of their lyrics are abstract visuals.
