Posts from Pop music and your opinion about it.
Do you like pop music?
I understand that you're upset. Go ahead and vent. But this phrase sounds like a mockery of everyone in the community who listens to this genre. Maybe you could address your messages in a way that avoids misunderstandings? Or is there a stereotype that "all metalheads are idiots"?))

Regarding not listening to the other person – that’s a very accurate observation. Do you even read what’s written here? Only kj1313 said that he doesn’t like anything other than metal, while the others also like other music, they just prioritize metal. And now you’re talking about conservatism and not listening to the other person.
I can’t stand it! Especially STASYA ZADOROZHNAYA!!! Even her name annoys me! Metal will always live on, pop music will die immediately!
I only listen to and play Metallica, IM, Rammstein... sometimes Russian bands like Aria, Lumen, etc. :) Sometimes I listen to some rap. And of course, house music in clubs – you can’t do without it :)
The most annoying thing is that people who listen to this garbage often turn into the same kind of idiots...
P.S. It’s a funny topic to discuss pop music, you just don’t have to listen to it and forget about it.
And by the way, no one has answered clearly how artists like Elton John, for example (the epitome of pop music, which no one will deny), have “sinned” in terms of the complexity of the composition, the quality of performance, and the beauty of the music.
And I also don’t like chanson or classical music, simply because I don’t like them. And if we’re talking about it, in a certain sense, they are pop music. And metal is pop music, and everything around is pop music, and people get paid for almost any music.
And seriously, it’s fundamentally wrong to consider all symphonic music to be equally “light” or “heavy.” Compare Chopin and Prokofiev – that will be approximately the same difference as between ABBA and Metallica (by the way, it was said about Prokofiev that if he had lived in our time, he would have written heavy rock :)). You may not notice this difference as much as their contemporaries – but in a couple of centuries, the difference between our pop music and metal will also be just as imperceptible. It will simply be “music of the late 20th – early 21st century.” :p
Could you be more specific about what you mean by "classics are pop music"? And by the way, how much were Mozart and Beethoven, who died in poverty, actually paid? I'm not sure – maybe they were given millions, but they just spent it all on beer.
It's popular, and people often listen to it just because it's "classic," meaning that by default, listening to it makes the listener "smarter" than "all those fans of Russian rock/rap/any kind of music."
Maybe CDs with classical music are given away for free 24 hours a day in Moscow, but unfortunately, that's not the case in other cities.
Are "tributes" being made? No. Are they being sold? Of course. :)
So, "in a way, it's pop music."
That's my opinion.
Except the ones we've made

Actually, yes, it's funny. I've seen similar ones for Metallica - So What and Children of Bodom - Silent night, Bodom night.
Factory!
Whose map is it?!

She's popular, and people often listen to her simply because it's "classic," which automatically makes the listener "smarter" than "fans of Russian rock/rap/any other music."
Moreover, the influence of fashion or prestige on musical tastes weakens with age: it's unlikely you'll find 40-year-olds bragging about who has better taste in music. At that age, people compare cars, apartments/houses, and incomes.
Maybe classical music CDs are given away for free 24/7 in Moscow, but unfortunately, this isn't the case in other cities.
Are "tributes" being made? Sure. Are they being sold? Of course.
So, "in a way, it's pop music."
That's my opinion.
Especially if we're talking about religious music – and most classical composers wrote religious works. Of course, these weren't sold to churches: on the contrary, it was an honor and a joy for the composer that his work was played during services.
How do sales change the genre of a work? One of the most expensive artists, Van Gogh, sold only a couple of paintings during his lifetime. The millions-of-dollars-worth paintings of Gauguin were not wanted by the merchants, with whom Gauguin had nothing to pay with. And did this "alternative" suddenly turn into "pop music" just because it started selling for a fortune? Did the colors in his paintings change?
The same goes for classical music. Great composers, who died in poverty, didn't write their music because it was commissioned and paid for. It's not like Igor Krutoy, who writes-sells-writes-sells... They didn't expect to get rich, let alone simply live off the income from their works.
And what difference does it make who sells their music now and for how much...
I don't understand what all the arguing is about. Personally, I can't stick to one genre for very long. And in general, I'm open to anything. Sometimes it's blues, sometimes it's rock... I can't live without the songs of Robbie Williams and Sting, Joe Cocker, and Mylène Farmer (the latter is because I love the French language). O-zone - Dragostea din tei is one of my favorite songs:smile04: But I'd prefer something older; I don't like much of the new stuff.
By the way, Jean-Michel Jarre dominates my playlist:) I love his music. But that's getting off-topic.*going to create a topic about electronic music*
So back off your rules,
Back off your jive!
Cause I'm sick of not living,
To stay alive,
Leave me alone!
I'm not asking a lot -
I just don't want to be controlled,
That's all I want.
All I want!(с)The Offspring
So many Gods
We were the prisoners of our own fantasy
But now we are marching
Against these Gods
I'm the wizard, I will change it all

Is technology just pop music? I don't know, but I love this band, and they have deep lyrics that some rockers are still far from achieving.
Reply: Yes, it's Electro-Pop, and if I'm not mistaken, they borrowed a bit of music from Depeche Mode... and lyrics aren't the main thing in rock (at least for me).
Let's leave retro alone. Back then, the concept of "pop" didn't exist. There was just honest, sometimes simply entertaining and background, beautiful music.
What do you mean by the word "retro"? Soul, Jazz, Blues?
For me, there is no such division between pop and non-pop; there is only what I like a lot, what I like, what's okay, what I don't like, and what's a complete disaster. And I can calmly listen to a mix of Laskovyi Mai, Bi-2, Led Zeppelin, Forest of Shadows, and Jean-Michel Jarre.
