What I really hate about some music


When I listen to music, there are four things that I really bothers me and was wondering if there are others who feel the same way about songs just as strongly as I do. I don't like feeling this way but when I hear these things, I just want to turn the music off and I'm not sure why the song writer doesn't realize he probably has a dud and not a hit. Here they are:

1. When a song writer finds a catchy phrase and the singer repeats the line three times in a row and then a stanza later, here it comes again repeated all three times and this just keeps going on and on.

2. Very similar to the above, a writer writes a real good line of music and then makes the whole song a repeat or variation of this line of music and has no imagination to add a little something in-between.

3. Singers who can't really sing well and think they can but get such really great score of music behind them that if a really good singer sang the song it would be wonderful to listen to. Please understand that carrying a tune to me doesn't make a good singer and I'm not talking about karoke singers here either.

4. Rhyming in a melody.... Please you can predict what the next line of the song is going to be before it is sang because it rhymes with the last line just sang...

What really boils my spaghetti is when a singer repititiously screams the same words over and over.

Makes me want to throw myself off of a relatively high piece of furniture.

DAC's song Living on the run starts off real good one of my favorites then he repeats da do do do da do do do da do do do da do do do over and over again and ruins it. Warren Zevon meet me in LA same thing ruins it. Could've been massive hits. I'm sure someone else doesn't like these artist and will chastise me 

Frank,

You may want to check out some of the musicians that record on independent labels. They seem to have more creative freedom than the larger labels.   

Repetitive mantra is supposed to send you into a transe. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
