Stupid Music

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Stupid Music

Right, I come in today, and my sister is listening to some music. Gradually my brain tunes in to the lyrics, which consisted mainly of: "Let's get retarded". Honestly!This has generated some serious fear within me. The music industry is encouraging immpressionable young children to lower their mental capacity. I'm very, very worried...

I would not worry about it. While music is rapidly declining in quality, people who can get retarded after listening to music is a retard already. No loss there. And are you sure the lyric is not satirical in nature?

I don't even listen to music, so I am biased agaionst all varieties. Therefore, I'm the perfect impartial thrid party! I agree, modern music is awful, and it ALL SOUNDS THE SAME! Especially all of those female singers such as "Kylie". Everything sounds the same to me. I don't mind a bit of classical though; at least it is interesting.

THE most soothing classical of all that I have heard is Pachelbel - Canon in D Major. I want it played at my wedding when ever I get married.

Why does that sound so familiar?
Oh that's right...
It's me!

Really Arania? In that case, Hail Brother (or Sister )! Let the anti-Music mob continue to demolish the foundations of the Music Industry!

@Aceaz, unfortunately you've been exposed to Black Eyed Peas' "Let's get Retarded" Supposedly its about letting your hair down and hanging loose for a bit?

As for some decent music? I can't recommend Rob Dougan's stuff enough, the man is a genius. He mixes classical music with rock or techno in ways that shouldn't be possible. His music is used extensively in movies and on TV because it can set a mood so well. His music features a lot in the original soundtrack to the Matrix: Reloaded. If you liked the music in the scenes where Neo fights the three agents simultaneously near the beginning of the movie, or the chateau fight sequence, that would all be down to Rob Dougan.

Wow! It looks like the topics on music are starting to dominate OT forums!
Anyway, for me, "Let's get retarded" seems to be just another version of "Everybody must get stoned" (Dylan, IIRC)

It's better to be a worldwide known drunkard than an anonymous alcoholic!

What do you mean "modern music"? There are many different musics types played in modern day.

Post Mon Jan 26, 2004 3:58 pm

to start putting musitians out of business is to pirate eveything and have all the antimusic people do it.
then prices go up, people dont want to pay, and they lose their money

my favorite music is all instrumental, when my mom listens to music in the car i just listen to the instruments in the backround instead of the lyrics

i am among the 5[% with DSL that doesnt want pictures with the news posts on the home page

Asceaz, your sister is listening to the Black Eyed Peas, I have the album (an abhoration in my collection, but there are some good songs on it). But most music today doesn't deserve to see the light of day.
