Challenge to the week

Personally I think that music is one of the most powerful man made weapons out there... it can make a bouncer take up knitting, and make a nerd win a war. It can be used to hurt or to help people. It can excite, upset, and even anger people. Yet we can't imagine the world without it. The scary thing is that if back in the day chaupan was the same as KISS is today then imagine how fast we must be falling! Music is at a lack of talent as it is! Imagine what kind of a disgrace of music we'll be listening to in a generation or two!!!!! It's scary when you think about it! if you don't believe me when I speak of the power in music try this. Go onto mypictures (My appologies to all mac users but PC'S are all I've ever used so I don't know how well this will work for you) Aaaaaaaaaaanyways, also open Realplayer, or windows media player, or your cd player, or a record player but have different kinds of music playing WHILE watching the picture slideshow. You'd freak out at how much the background music affects your view of what it must of been like. You can make everyone at a party look like they're crying or make a bunch of Goths look like circus clowns. Well Try it out and tell me how it works out... please.... I like reading comments..... PLEASE COMMENT ON THIS SITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Music is at a lack of talent as it is! Imagine what kind of a disgrace of music we'll be listening to in a generation or two!!!!!"

I disagree with that statement (also, right there you sounded just like a cranky old fogey, no offense or anything).

Also:

"...have different kinds of music playing WHILE watching the picture slideshow. You'd freak out at how much the background music affects your view of what it must of been like."

Again, I disagree (although I acknowlege that everyone's different). I view music as something that "plays with my imagination". It does not affect memories that I have towards a certain picture, but at the same time I might suddenly get a brilliant idea for "something" artsy.

The only exception would be if I was listening to some genre of music I didn't like (e.g. country, bluegrass, "cheese" pop...), THEN it would be distracting.

Oh sure insult my inteligence and than call me old and cranky! (Sniff) First of all, how long is it going to take you to realise that I'm the most sarcastic person on the planet and secondly I wasn't saying that all music was horrible I was just saying that A lot of music is losing it's talent as people spend most of the time screaming into a microphone and smashing their instruments. Yeesh, I'm still yet to figure out why people would rather watch american idol over the olympics... maybe it raises their self esteem. Now then hopefully you can lower my age about 40 years now and not think me some maniac
