I conducted a quick poll of my rowdy friends and ex’s that live in Texas and they disagree with you. Oh, yeah, they said to "take your opinion and shove it!"
Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time
I seriously can’t think of anything worse. I grew up listening to country music in the late 80s and early 90s, and a lot of that was pretty bad. But this new stuff, yikes.
Who sees some pretty boy on a stage with a badly exaggerated generic southern accent and a 600 dollar denim jacket shoehorning the words “ice cold beer” into every third line of a song and says “Ooh I like this, this music is for me!”
I would literally rather listen to anything else.Seriously, there’s nothing I can think of, at least not in my lifetime or the hundred or so years of recorded music I own, that seems worse.

@dayglow I'm sure it can be good. I have a friend from Argentina whose son is on his way to being an opera singer and I wish him the best. I may give it (opera) another chance one day. Having liner notes would definitely be helpful. Is there a "more accessible" opera or recording you would recommend for a neophyte? I do imagine that seeing a real opera in person would be a good experience, like seeing a Broadway play. Regarding language barriers, well, I have enjoyed "Krautrock" and the German versions of Kraftwerk's albums even though I don't speak German. |
