Music Opinions (wow more opinions I'm on a roll)

Hey guys!

So today I've been thinking a lot about music taste. Music is such an important part of most of our lives, and obviously, people like to share the music they love. However, something I really hate is the kind of superiority people have about what music they like. You know the stereotypical kind, the one that's always like, "I only listen to real music, none of that popular stuff on the radio!" And I've had these thoughts as well. I think it's just natural to feel like whatever you like is actually better; I mean, it's better in your mind, so why not everywhere else?

But the thing is, I think people forget that music is all just an arrangement of sounds, no matter how popular or unpopular it is. Rock music doesn't sound good to your ears? Well, ok, it sounds great to others. You hate autotuning? Cool, but some people don't mind. I do agree that the music industry isn't at it's best place at the moment, but more for it's immense pressure on artists rather than the artists themselves. The artists of today have their own styles that are different from the past, and I think that people just need to accept that, and stop being so defensive over their opinion that popular music is terrible nowadays.

Also, there's the whole bad attitude towards people that care a lot about a band. Maybe I just hate that because I really care about numerous bands, but it's just stupid to laugh at people that are legitemately sad about a band member leaving or a band breaking up. It may seem stupid to you, but it's just their passion. They can't help but be upset, so people should just be supportive rather than make them feel even worse by telling them that their troubles are stupid.

This was mostly on my mind because Spencer Smith left Panic! at the Disco today. No, no one told me I shouldn't care (that part was mostly talking about peoples attitude towards directioners) but I'm still sad because he was the second to last original member and Brendon is probably upset which is not a fun thing to imagine. I hope they stay together and everything, because I definitely still support them.

Bye for now,
Aria~
