I disagree as some of the best songs of the 60's were Protest/Anti War Songs. The reason I LIKE singer songwriters is I want to hear their point of view of life. Great Songs Move people to think, dance, feel and cry....I don't want some boring, vanilla Songs all the time. A Great Song can change a Country or Start a Movement. SO what they say or write about is not for everybody but I for one MISS IT and wish there was more of it. Different Strokes for different folks and all that jazz.
