anart said:Hey, EGVG. What would you say to taking one month off of all pop music? Don't listen to it, don't watch videos, don't read about it. One month. You can listen to classical instead if you need music.
I suggest this because you seem to have a bit of an obsession with these pop artists and their music rather 'melts the mind' (turns it to jelly in a way) and promotes a pathological view of reality/life/success/love/etc.
So - think it might be worth a try?
I think that's an excellent idea and am glad that you're going to try it. :)EGVG said:anart said:Hey, EGVG. What would you say to taking one month off of all pop music? Don't listen to it, don't watch videos, don't read about it. One month. You can listen to classical instead if you need music.

Oh! Wow, I don't know if I could or want to do that, I'm well aware of the pathological aspects of it so I will think about it. But I do think Kylie is more respectfull and artistic than others, less pathological if you may.
EDIT: Ok I'll do it

when I remember correctly she doesn't write her own music or texts. so I don't think that she is a more respectfull artist than any others.

Besides the fact that your reply it seems to me impolite, i think that what Pashalis is pointing out is not properly his opinion since is based on facts, she's merely a popstar, a performer not esentially different from any other mainstream act. And regards to consider what she does as art just depends on your subjective conception of art.

I was thinking that the women you sometimes post about and seem to be drawn to regarding the music industry seem very much like characatures - not real or down to earth. I wondered if you felt more interested in them because of some internal issue you have with women. I could be completely off on this but are there women you identify with that are not so made up? That seem more like everyday people?EGVG said:truth seeker said:While Pahalis and AWTF raise valid points, let's give EGVG a chance to listen to some classical music for a while and see if he can broaden his current views on music in general and women in particular.
Hi!! What do you mean "women in particular"?? :)
