What's wrong with music today...
« on: July 27, 2004, 03:30:00 pm »
From the NY Times  review of Hillary Duff's concert at Continental Arena:
 
 Neither [Duff] sister is much of a singer; backup vocalists provided almost continuous unison support. But the Duffs' kiddie-pop is less a musical experience than a chance to wave glow sticks and scream, and Hilary Duff is determinedly benign. She's so relentlessly positive that when she delivered the Who's "My Generation" as a final encore, she altered a crucial line to sing, "Hope I don't die before I get old."

heh heh... they mentioned her covering "My Generation" in the Post, but they left out that *very* crucial detail!  As a result I had been thinking "that's actually kinda cool that she'd do that."  But saccharinizing that song is just unspeakable!
 
 as for hotness or lack thereof, not to sound like a dirty old man but I actually think she's very cute!!!  and the lack of Britneyesque trashiness makes her more appealing, not less...

ok and I thought I was done but I'm not done gah do people not know what's happened to the art form that is music. I mean I'm no genius by any merit but ah this is the one thing in life I get to enjoy and the worlds gone and tried to fuck that up for me. Bah I never even barely ever post and I'm posting. People are luck that I'm not there in real life rageing endlessly about this probably very dulldrom nonse crap to be bitching about but I just got off my shitty shitty work and I wanna read some decent treads about decent upstanding musical interest and there's one of Disney's (r) Duff Sisters (c) defaceing what is (ok arguebly maybe) a classic song ... ok I gotta breath I really shouldn't post this but oh well maybe I should post more.
 Down with crap up with music. bye... till next time I have too much free time and too little people to talk to   :o    oh well

kids wear way too much makeup these days.  she is a cute girl, she doesn't need all that.  I'm almost 18 and I only wear makeup at night if I'm going out, and even then, not always.  this is normal.  gobs and gobs of makeup everyday at 15?  that is not normal.  sigh.  I'm already becoming a mother.

I agree. I hope I DON'T die before I get old. The Who's lyrics were stupid.

Two friends of mine went to see her live at The Patriot Center last week (they even got front row tickets).
 
 No, these aren't two little girls that I know (because I don't know any) - these are two people (30+ in age) quite well known/seen out all the time at various events we all hang out at.
 
 Very bizarre indeed, but if that it is what they want to do, why the hell not?!  :cool:
 
 Cheers

Blelvis and Johnny DC (the guy that wears a ragged suit and walks back and forth on 18th st. with a newspaper under his arm)?
