Honestly, I am beginning to learn that I truly dislike this music. I understand that they are classic and that they play a part in American history and have added to our culture in some small way. However the actual songs are painful to my ears and I am praying to the music Gods that we will change genres of music as soon as possible. To me the singers are whining a bit too loudly into the microphone while simultaneously ensuring that the lyrics are unable to be understood, which may be a positive thing because these lyrics aren't that great in the first place. I understand that the music today can be seen in the same light but personally I believe that there is at the very least a good beat to tap along with.
I know I may be judging harshly but I can't help the way I feel about the majority of these ballads. I understand that we should go back to the roots while learning about music, but seriously can we listen to something that has a bit of taste and melody to go along with it? We don't even have to listen to today's "popular music", when I think of American Popular Music I think of Bruce Springsteen, The Beatles and Led Zeppelin; just to name a very few. Overall I am just hoping that I can either find the beauty in the music we have currently been listening to or that we change genres and listen to something that I would consider enjoyable.
