Feels like everyones a one hit wonder now a days...

Honestly i feel like music has gone from "This groub of artists are the top of this groub and they get advertised the most."

To

"Theres Milions of artists and everyone has their own list now with artist that pretty much no one else knows about"

Now im not saying that theres not very popular artists but i feel like its become more mainstream to listen to people with not such a big following istead of listening always to somelone like Eminem, Drake, Ariana grande, Post malone.

Back in the day "IM 17 SAYING THAT..." there was the big artists like, michael jackson rock bands like guns and roses, metallica, rappers like NWA, eminem, 2pac. But now you see alot more of the so called "UNDERGROUND" artists and more people listen to them than the main stream artists. Its very hard to explain but i hope someone understands.. :D

The music has to be good before I pay attention to the lyrics. A song can still be good even if the lyrics aren't that great, however, a song could have the greatest lyrics ever written but if the music isn't good, it's still a bad song.

This is me and my husband.

Him: Man, did you hear that guitar tone? (Or whatever)

Me: What? I heard a song….a beautiful story with music in the background.

I never ever thought about the individual instruments until he brought it up. To me, without the lyrics there is no song….the music is the vessel that delivers the song.

I mean, I get that it’s more than that and I appreciate both but for me the lyrics are where it’s at.

My husband doesn’t care as much about the lyrics.

In My Opinion The lyrics of the Song mean alot. I mean we all have listen to a song thats in a foreing launguage and then years later we found out that its about something absolutely horrifying. If you take a song like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UE0--Gf-kWU for examble it kinda makes you head bob for the rest of the day but if you take a song from bob dillon or even one of my favorites Elliot Smith you start thinking more instead of physicly acting upon the song. If you get what i mean?
