Music has not gone anywhere, and not going anywhere. We can use the same technology that tries to doom it, by listening to good music.

The only difference is celebrity and media dominance renders the few lucky enough to be there musicians, the kings of music. And all else is considered chit. But in a way, that has always been there. The grammy's have always celebrated the few and lucky enough to be there, and ive had conversation with people, and they believe the grammys are the best musicians. "Oh, well, if so and so was so good, why wasnt he nominated for a grammy? DUHHHHH

I dont believe songs are dead, Tayor Swift would be Taylor Chit without her songs. She not a great singer, not bad, but not great, sounds sweet and nice, like her demographic. Not a great musician, shes not even a great entertainer, compared to likes of Lady Gaga, and Beyonce who are probably way more musically and dancibly talented.

But what she did have was her songs, her songs captured the imagination of young girls, like nobody has. That's talent, and she writes a nice catchy hook.

All my favorites from yesteryear stink now cause they cant write any more. Eventually you hit a wall, everybody does. But there are indies out there who blow my mind, and make a living, they just aint gonna be walking the red carpet.

But I think theres also people who roll their eyes and celebrity today. Its like, when it first started, it was interesting, now social media is so forced, and so stupid, and so..."off the top of my head" that nobody is even ready when something interesting comes along.

Most people have to be bored with social media by now, and must also realize that nobody gives a damn what they think. Soon the younger generations will want an alternative to social media, i think weve seen it a bit with cell phones.

But, Great local indies are still doing well but lack of gigs has hurt them. Great songs? Look no further, even caught attention of the boss...lol a multi millionaire and a scrub... lol
