One Direction vs Tony Levin. (8)
Reality tv has a lot to answer for simon Cowell and co, I appreciate raw natural talent love seeing new emerging singers songwriter s and bands of course. No more heroes lol more like you can't sing you can't dance and you can't play and look awful but you go a long way, the famous kit kat commercial
Check out these kids so!! They actually play instruments and write their own stuff!!

veryggood love itCheck out these kids so!! They actually play instruments and write their own stuff!!
ok I come at this from a different perspective.
I am a rock chick at heart. Love my guitar based music.
Grew up listening to decent music too in the stones and simon and garfunkel.
But on the other hand there is nothing I like more than some cheesey lighthearted pop.
So I enjoy both. My son listens to Queen and Bob Marley with some smash mouth and one direction thrown in for good measure. He's just saved and bought himself an ipod and the variety of music that he has on it is huge.

I really enjoyed that. thanks for posting.
Brandenburger: Is it a fair fight?.
Of course not, and if you want to know more you will have to check out who Tony Levin is (but i doubt many will).
The stranglers wrote a song in the 70s, around the time punk was on the rise. 'No more Heros', it has been that way for many years, sport, i know nothing about, apart from what Cecil tells me, blokes diving on soccer fields to get attention, other blokes 'eating' another blokes ear on the pitch, cycling blokes on drugs and power boosters, but for me, the crowning turd on the dung heap. Manufactured pretty pop stars that have the talent of a recently digested pizza.
Have i a problem, yes i do, The disposable nature of something that was once precious, once talent endured, it morphed, evolved and re-invented.
I remember being truely excited at the release of a piece of music by an 'artist' that i had followed for many years.
The last truely commercial maverick was Madonna, I couldnt care much for her music, but i had respect for her ability to move with the times, whether it was a commercial gambit or artistic integrity, i dont know, but i expect it was a bit of both, I doubt we will see her like again in a very long time.
U2 are still flooging a 'delay reverb' dead horse 30 years after the 'unforgettable fire', Springsteen and Dylan are here every few weeks cashing in (good that they are paying the mortgage, but id still rather be gardening if they were playing in my sitting room).
Were stuck now with a pop phenominon of galactic vacuiousness (hope thats not an understatement).
Sorry children, but if your mums and dads wont tell you who Tony Levin is, E-Mail me, and i'll get you on the way to seeing that there are still some real artists out there.
Me, I want to see kids with instruments, i want to see them learn and grow and really get somthing from music, i want them to cut their teeth on the craft of writing and performing, i want to go into a music shop and hear 'stairway to heaven' or 'smoke on the water' being played by a member of staff with really unkempt hair, i want sweat and cigarettes, jim beam or southern comfort for breakfast, i want a rolls-royce in a swimming pool and a telly thrown out of a 20 story hotel window (long as i doesnt bean someone), I want to look out and see bodies as far as the eye can see, I want a crumpled hand written set list and an after party bash, i want feedback off the mike and gaffa tape on the floor. but above it all i want to see a creative musical lagacy left for future generations that inspires others to challenge the normal the mundane and the expected.
I want kids to find a voice in music with substance, vitality and heart, (just as my kids did) nuff said.
