I watched the grammy's but giving musical credit to Kayne West and Green Day is like giving an award to a deaf mute for hearing..
No offense to deaf mutes..:)
Spot on!
My criteria for a good song is--
a. complex rhythm...if you can hop up and down during the entire song without any change, then what a bore!
b. if there isn't a good rhythm, then I'll forgive that for an excellent voice. But I mean EXCELLENT! Not the 'we all sound alike, and sing REAL loud!' group that is on the airwaves now.
c. lastly, if the rhythm is useless and the voice is crappy, I may be won over with exceptional lyrics. But again, really exceptional.
Otherwise, I don't waste my time.
