Things you hated after they got too popular.

Lifehouse is absolutely terrible live.

They opened (along with Everclear) for MB20 on the tail end of the Mad Season tour in mid-2001 and it's painfully obvious how much they had to digitize his voice.

Suddenly being all artsy and geeky is cool! What's the deal with that! I was artsy and geeky back when you got picked on for that! Also the style (grungy beatnik style: it's also a sex position) in which I dress is become all cool too... bah!

Ah, yes: the "Janeane Garofalo effect". ;0

My own world? It's called Philadelphia. And you know damn well a ridiculous number of people copy our styles.

Speer, Philadelphia hasn't inspired anything musically since the O'Jays.

hey, hey, weezer isnt for nerds... is it? *sniff


As for the ORIGINAL question, it really doesnt matter what people say. If you like the stuff you'll like it. For example, I've never liked LOTR, it simply wont change because theyve made a movie and rest of the world likes it now. My opinions CAN change, but not because of what other people says.

Also, you may not like a certain thing, but you can learn to appreciate it. I hate those boy band music but some of them do have singing talent, while some are just there because of popularity. You try going up there and sing like that. Just simply bashing them mindlessly and calling them names... isnt necessary. You just look like a gay basher. And gay bashers are.. well gay.

PS. Is there one thing I liked but hated after it got popular? How about santa hat themes? j/k

Asher: Er, hello. "Joke". Sir?

African drum music? What? Bollocks. I've possibly said that modern hip-hop, as indeed all rock, is partially progressed from african drumming traditions, but I don't listen to the stuff.

I really should post a "I recommend" thread just because of that.

Truth is, I've not bought anything new and exciting for ages, my economy has been too tight.

Actually, I have quite a good idea of what kind of thread to post...

I'd ignore Speer. He seems to live in a world of his own. He also likes Tupac. 'Nuff said.

You have an "Avril" avatar. Nuff said.

America was so good until all those crappy Europeans came and colonized it!!!

Now it's just a big nation weilding its power over a bunch of small puny nations!!!

Apolyton is a lost cause, full of worshippers of Bad Rock. I have acquired a reputation of having bad tastes in music here, so I pursue my recommendation elsewhere.

I think I'll post this...elsewhere.

The Prodigy. Well I can't say I hate them, but .. anyway.
