Top 40
I'm thinking... Popular music. The majority of the music that tops the charts is soooooooooo... wrong. Lets get wasted and have sex and get more wasted! I think that i might attempt to write a song..? or maybe a music review! yeah a rolling stone-esque music review completely bashing todays completely arrogant sexual vapid chart toppers. of course there are the exceptions but even those exceptional songs get overplayed until all of the emotion gets completely vaporized. Should be pretty good:)

haha sounds fun. yeah most of the music is pretty pathetic now a days and maybe look at some specific lyrics that you can poke fun at. Writing a song is kind of what abev is doing too but i'm sure you'd be good at it. Just definitely comment on the lack of depth of the music and how it's ridiculous what people enjoy today.
ReplyDeleteI like this idea a lot! Mabe like print out the lyrics or something
ReplyDeleteyeah i read abevs idea and im definitely going with the music review instead:)
ReplyDeletei like this idea a lot. you can talk about how young children are listening to this music and how they dont understand it
ReplyDeleteThe only problem that I see is that if you go for the music review, then it won't be satirical if you're just bashing on current music trends like you say in the blog. I think the review is a good idea if you don't directly bash on it like it seems like you're saying, and instead say how it's so great that all these kids are listening to these totally inappropriate songs that they don't understand.
ReplyDeleteI have always wanted to do this. I'm excited to see what you come up with. Also, make sure you talk about how they deliver sexual innuendo, because I think its a big part of the mainstream music you're talking about.
