Title: what keeps you listening?
Post by: Thirteen on July 27, 2004, 03:58:38 PM
to me, Video Games and Movies will all be waaaaaaay ahead of music. i personally have lost all interest in music, and when i drive around, my radio is completely off

over the years i've seen movies become better, have original stories or situations and special effects have gotten remarkable

with games, i don't really have to say much, they've gone from small little sprite programs to fully 3-d photo realistic envirnments and put you incontrol of anyhting from a western settler to a captain of a space ship

so what does music still offer you guys?

Towlie is back  ;D

imo, Movie effects have gotten better, but movie storylines have gotten worse over the years.
But i agree music overall has gotten very very bad. Of course there is the occasional nice song, but overall its basically crap.

When im in my car i like to listen to alot of talk radio, and other than that i listen to cds.

Every form of media has gotten worse over the years.

movies have gotten waaaaaaaaaaaay worse.  I don't like video games anymore, they have become too complicated.  I will always love music over anything else in life besides girls.  There is plenty of music that no matter how many times in a row I listen to it, I just can't get sick of it.  New music, gets old.  but older music, that will never get old to me.

Music can make you think.  It can make you feel a certian way.  You can also feel music (the bass).  It's universal.  I don't watch movies or play games really.

Games have been revolutionized..

Movies have gotten worse.. mainly because the actors are getting worse, but also because many scripts are dumbed down for mainstream consumption.
Movies these days = 3-6 random actors who could pass as models (or even better if they already are models), throw some romance and some random stereotype bad guys on top, and add tons of special effects, spend some millions on ads, and you got a blockbuster.
Today you gotta look hard to find the movies with a real story and actual substance..

Excerpt From Eric Sermon feat. Marvin Gaye - Music
Marvin Gaye:
Music is the soul of the man
Music makes a, happy day
Music makes a, cloud flow by baby
Your music is my tears in-side my eyes (just like music)
Your music makes me want to sing
Girl music, is a joy to bring (just like music)
Music is my heart and soul, more precious than gold
(Turn on some music, I got my music)
Happiness for days, justice all the way
(Turn on some music, I got my music)
I love your music baby (I got my music)


That About Sums It Up For ME

crazy the way you listed 2 of the best films to be released in recent years and you say you can't stand um, don't really understand that.

I listen to music because I can listen to anything.  MOST music is the same.....if you only have one or two tastes in music.  I can listen to Rock/Rap/Pop/Soul/R&B/Themes/etc etc etc and enjoy em all.  Occasionally a new artist will come along that will blow everyone away and thats what I like about music, its gives people satisfaction and can make people feel many different things.  Shits just dope.
