To say that (in my opinion) the recent 3T was the worst culturally, not only in pop music but in broadcast TV, does not mean there weren't some good songs in it. All 3T pop culture is a big category, and I also exclude not only fringe phenomena like new age music and singer-songwriters, but pop culture beyond the United States, from this generalization.

Yes the 3T culture is a big category so a "worst" smear (and that is what it is) does not make it true given there are so many songs that you are discovering yourself that you enjoy

Nope; still the worst. But it's the label of worst that is relative; such a big category cannot be a uniform judgement on all the songs of the period. But there's still a big gap between the 2T and the 4T, as I hear it. But, though that's still my opinion, I have always admitted that there are more songs of that period I don't know than those of today and the 2T, and my ears are open.

That's not a fact, as explained perfectly, but you ignore it.

Quote: Just be aware whenever you say that and I see it, I will say something. I will defend it for those of us who enjoy that era. I know you love to keep reminding us you hate it. I am persistent too.

You can post whatever you decide to post, within forum guidelines. I am also free to ignore it, or not. You are still officially on my ignore list.

Quote: Enjoy the music you like and let us do the same thank you.

I cannot tell you what to enjoy and what not, silly. You cannot tell me what to say.

Quote: Be tolerant of the differences and let us share and enjoy our similarities including songs we like together. You want a tolerant world. That is an example.

Then, if that's what you want, then YOU can tolerate the fact that people make statements of what they like and what they don't, Taramarie. And, you might learn something too.

As to your last comment I think you could learn that too. You are trying to change the world correct? Which means you disagree with people to the point of changing their behaviour. You cannot tell me you are tolerant. The only reason I am having this discussion with you is because despite the fact you say you are open minded and tolerant you aren't regarding the 3T given what you say about it. Lets keep that fact well known here. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Same fact that one person likes someone else and another looks from afar thinking why is she or he with that person ugh! Same thing with music. A person can like certain music and another does not think it is good. Like gabrielle was astounded that i "missed all the good song." To her they are good. To me, some were new discoveries and some no. Difference is i do not go round saying i do not like a whole turning for its culture. I will add that no one actually cares as we cherish it. You seem unaware that it is rude though. For someone open to changing himself you seem closed off to opening your own mind to others. But that is why you are the prophet and i am the civic. I see other people and hear what they say. You are the one obsessed with changing culture and be damned those who stand in the way. It makes you quite ignorant to people. People who are in that society you want to change. Funny i am on your ignore list but that is not working. You cannot ignore truth Eric. All i want is for you to be nice. We know you do not like that turning so why keep complaining about it?

You are not nice, so why ask me to be?

I say what I think. I don't care if you think it's rude for me to say what I think. There's no point in having a forum if people don't.

Beauty is not just in the eye of the beholder.

You seem to care if I don't agree with you. You keep talking to me about it.

You talking about how others feel about me IS extremely rude. That's why you're on my ignore list. That's not acceptable behavior.

What you say is not necessarily the truth, just because you are on my ignore list.
