well, thought I'd voice some opinions as well.
Teens today don't like certain types of music because they're full of violence and obscenities... that has nothing to do with why we like them... the beat is good, the sound of the voice is good... sometimes the specific melody is good... maybe it's just me, but I don't really pay attention to the lyrics, just the music.
on that note, I'm not a great fan of today's popular music like all the boybands, girlbands, solo guys/girls... (none of the "pop" music... that includes brintey, bsb, eminem, dr.dre etc..)
Not to say I don't like all of it, I do! It's just that I hate the fact that they all come out with ONE song that's pretty fun to listen to and then release song after song after song that sounds exactly the same as the first one..
On the Britney/Christina --> they both can't sing... simple. BUT, did you see the new Britney video? oh my!!! Those black pants really bring out her best feature! She be werkin' out or sumthin'! Best music? Latin and house (hardcore house) --> those have such great beats... just make you want to move.
blah blah blah, I'm done blah blah blah
