7 ~ Musical Taste

My taste in music is somewhat different from most kids my age. I grew up with parents who were interested in theater, classical music and classical rock. Naturally, when I was old enough to develop my own tastes, they were incline to those genres.

Naturally, we all believe that our tastes are somewhat superior compared to others - there's no denying it, we will inevitably have a bias for ourselves when compared to others. It's just the way it is and it's fine so long as you're aware. In any case, why I brought this up is simple:

I loathe the music of today.

Miley Cyrus, Justin Beiber, etc. The music idols of today are less about the music, and more about the image. Their music isn't even that good! I hate what music has become, and even more, I hate how everyone is buying into the image. For some reason, nobody seems to care about it.

Young people are being raised to these kinds of people - to these kinds of creatures - and I'm stuck here, thinking about days of music that were so sweet yet not my own.
