Stupidest comments you heard people make about music

I wonder what you guys think about people wearing t shirts of bands that they don't even know.


One time i saw a dude wearing a Nirvana shirt and i said, like dude. You like Nirvana too?

When he didn't know what i meant.

I think i should have asked him to name 4 or 5 songs from Nirvana without looking it up on a tablet or such.

I wonder if it will ever dawn on them that they are one of the stupidest people.

I like Dylan's singing. My current favorite is probably mid 70s around the Desire / Rolling Thunder period, but that varies with my mood.

Here is a Jewish guy and a Chinese guy, playing solo with an American orchestra, conducted by a Japanese guy, playing Czech music by a European composer. Sweetest thing I ever heard. If this is what cultural appropriation means, bring it on!

I like Dylan too, immensely, but he is no singer.
 
"Wow that 12 string must be really hard to play!"

Yes, and Perlman on violin, with the New York Philharmonic. All star cast. Cultural appropriation in its full glory.

It's like anything else. Tastes differ. As a singer myself, I listen to him and Chris Cornell the most. I'm a massive fan of both.

How on earth is Dylan objectively a good singer?

I love it, I have aquired a taste but I know damned well he has no power in his voice, can't harmonize, has no range.....

many of the songs on Desire are duets. he can absolutely harmonize. examples on that record are One More Cup of Coffee, Romance in Durango, and Black Diamond Bay.

he has also altered his vocal style more times than about any other singer that i can think of, and has handled vocal changes resulting from age and life expertly. he even put out a couple of albums of Sinatra standards in his 70s, and they were really well done.

Much rap seems to give me a headache.

I think it's because the bass is boosted in such a way that it makes the songs loud.

Plus some of the rap out nowadays is about being a vicious gangsta and having a AK-47/shotgun in one hand for drivebys and a 40 oz liquor in another and beating women and slinging drugs.

There is even a rap song about which side to wear gang colors on,no i'm not joking.

Plus the whole thing of kids dressing up like gangstas and throwing up gang signs.

Many rock fans said that.

Kinda ironic too.

Because many rock bands actually put out disco songs during the 70's

KISS even had a Disco album.
