Hk: I hate to enter your conversation, but below was such an interesting(provocative is a more appropriate word) comment that I had to further ask, where do U think this stems from....or does anyone else have comments on this.....? This comment, TO ME, points to the fact of how our taste and values are somewhat governed by a Larger, external, sorta hidden group... This isnt social history class I know, but its sure interesting, and musically related, I think........sorry I am back to the shadows........
quoted 1 line people in england i believe to be>>people in england i believe to be
sheep when it comes to thier musical prefernces as they have a fear of being an outcast for having a unique point of view ----- Oh for god's sake. this is bullshit. the only people who believe that other people are just following the scene in the musical preferences are insecure teenage jerks who think that their precious taste is so much more esoteric and unique than everyone elses. I know. I was one of them. Now I like Britney and Jay-Z. And V/vm. Snobs!
