I do not like Taylor Swift, her music, or anything about her nor am I interested in her social life.

I never understood people likeling her whisper falsetto voice. I thought similarly of Mariah Carey - why do people want to hear a high pitched scream over and over. Both are banned from my spotify


Wasn't Carey's early stuff wholesome and classy? She and her singing got unhinged and nutty after her first divorce in '98.

+1. And they are both deeply insecure about it. To the point they both spend tons and tons of money to manufacture stories about them being "genius."

You know what other group’s older songs go hard? And they never got their flowers even at the time and it always secretly annoyed me because people judged them on their most popular hits which were ehhhhh? Creed. I played My Own Prison constantly in the late 90s. It’s a really good album even to this day.


People hate on Scott Stapp. People mistakenly assumed Creed was a Christian band but they werent. Fred Durst of Limp Bizcut, of all people, went at Stapp constantly. He talked about Scott using a fake voice to sing and that Scott was partying with girls on the band bus etc. Durst had no room to trash anyone.

We’ve only seen it on Disney+

And I only thought it was ok. I’ve enjoyed other musicals more.

I’m not paying for it


I thought it was great and well written.... Buy the way Lin Manuel Miranda sings and dances it's clear why he couldn't land roles. He needs to stick to writing where his talent is.

All rap music pretty much sounds exactly the same. All country music... etc etc.

I dunno about universally popular since we all went to catholic schools and U2 was very very popular. Joshua tree is one of my favorite albums- basically everything they did through Achtung baby is great but like I said- it hits different if your are steeped in Irish catholic culture and I grew up in Montgomery county MD.


Bono was raised Protestant, right? But yes we Irish Americans love us some peak era U2. Went to see them with my proudly Irish American dad around the time of Joshua Tree, and he was belting out the words to nearly every song.


His mother was Anglican and his father was Catholic. He was raised both.

As a musical, Moana was better than Hamilton.


This is so oddly specific. I love R.E.M.
