I have an opinion that seems unpopular on here...

I don't think I have to rip apart one musician in order to like another.

There are so many "I stan ha" "why don't you stan ha" and "how can you stan ha" arguments about music on here it does my head in. I am allowed to love the Beatles and what they did for music in their time as well as like modern day pop and rock. I don't have to burn one musicians legacy to the ground in order to like another. I can like Aretha Franklin, Joni Mitchel, Madonna, Whitney, Cyndi, Britney, GaGa, Cher, Fi, and any other diva I want without saying negative things about another.

Music is personal, it is subjective, it feels unique to you and is unique to you because you are the only one who can hear it in the way you do, and feel it in the way you do. Music is art, and art is complex and speaks to each person on different levels. It isn't a cheap character on a reality tv show, it is the fuel of life, so quit ripping other peoples fuel to shreds... I don't stan it.

Leather trumpet is a great guy

Mystic Mock will lose his virginity at the end of the year in a one night stand with chaos

The football forum needs more lower league fans

The religious threads go great with popcorn and a cool glass of Pepsi

this smilie is actually a great way to get a dig in at someone without getting into trouble. Just stick it on the end of anything you want to say and you are good to go. E.g Kyle you're a twat

High post counts aren't a good thing. If I ever hit 10,000 posts I will probably commit seppuku through the shame.

-Lots of people think LT is a great guy!!!
-I use when I am drinking coffee while on the forum, cause I literally write a post and then take a swig... lol, and because until the coffee kicks in, I basically feel like I don't care about anything
-You are almost at the half way point to that shame you speak of

..I think though..(for me when I was younger anyway..)...in some ways, music meant so much more to me than it does now..my music 'understood' me/artists understood me, they sang what I felt, they felt what I felt..they just knew me/they were there for me through every angst I felt... and I do understand the passion with that/when you feel like that ...and I'm not sure when I was younger that I didn't to some extent feel the same with music I liked less...oh I don't understand that, type thing and why don't you see how great this is instead...and yeah/passions will play because music means so much to people, I think...

I am saying the same thing, essentially. So tell us about your passion for your song or your artist, just don't frame it as "this artist can olny be shown as amazing if I debase another artist. What does hating the Gaga have to do ith loving Kelly Clarkson, or visa versa? It is something I don't understand.

You don't have to like the music you do, but I don't have to devalue your passion for it either

..I don't know, I guess it's just the way it's expressed in other things as well and maybe more an internet/forum thing because I've seen similar on other forums as well on many things that are felt passionately about...my music is better than yours/my political party is better than yours/my TV series is batter than yours/my housemate is better than yours/my milkshake is better than yours....

Well, my mikshake brings all the boys to the yard Ammi

I think I hold music on another level than all these other topics because it is art. Politics is obviously a debatable topic. So is television and the personality of housemates and how shows are presented etc etc.

well anyways, it's just my unpopular opinion at the end of the day

..haha, you do make quite nice banana milkshakes I have to say and that's my favourite flavour...

..I do understand what you're saying and am not being difficult or anything/I don't know maybe I'm overthinking it as I often do but I guess that I do think that it's what people feel about something/anything that creates it's importance in their particular lives and puts it on another level for them, type thing ...maybe more so music though because it's something that everyone has has or most people anyway that has great meaning and passion...



..I'll try to think of some unpopular opinions of my own but I can't think of any atm...
