Lost the pop!

Sunday, March 13, 2005

OK I give up - what is happening with the world of "popular" music?

I am sat here watching the UK Top 40 - something I have not seen (or heard) in ages and I am horrified! What is with the charts!

And what is with the record companies?

First they admit that three "bands" have been dropped - bands? I have never heard of "VS", "411" or "cannot be bothered to remember their name", who the hell were they and should we care that they have all been dropped after a few hits? I am sure they must be Chav groups from the iTV generation - am I right?

And then - then - the guy from the Halifax ad's turns up doing a cover!

WTF!!!

What happened to the time when people became artists and remained so? Is this why so many people are concerned with the Michael Jackson trial?

Let's face it - would we really give a shit if a similar thing happened to McFly? (And what does that mean anyway?)

God this generation are f*****g gullible!

I just hope the charts can claw back some credibility tomorrow when Daft Punk and The Bravery release their new albums...

One can live and hope!
