Have you ever wondered, what is good music and what is bad music? each person has his/her own idea of good music,
but does that mean that there isnt good music? is it all just a matter of taste?

Good music is the timeless music, but how can we tell now if a piece of music is good with out have to wait the test of time?

I think any music that is interesting is good. I don't like all the music I find intersting, but a fairly sizable chunk of it. Basicly, if it strikes me as creative, sounds good, and is played in time, I think it's good.

When first starting out i think your peers have alot,
to do with your taste of music.
Plus when you get more years under your belt,
your taste will change from year to year.
I hate to label music good and bad,
because not everyone has the same taste.

bands who play real instruments (not sitting at a bloody computer knocking out sill or ripped off tunes) and perform as good live as well as they do in the studio are good.

Take that, spice girls, steps, sclub7, heresay, bewitched, boys own, the list can go on for pages, this style/kind is crap...crap....crap...etc.

The'flavour of the week' may sound good now, but unless it really is good stuff, it'll sound really cheesy in a few years.

I agree with FenderBlues. Mofos who don't even play instruments or write their own songs are a complete waste of oxygen.

I'm supposed to think that they're "talented" musicians because they put on their $200 silk shirts and their GAP jeans and go prancing around the stage lip-synching their meaningless lyrics?????????

Crap . . . Crap . . . Crap . . . etc . . .

when i think of bad music i think of rap or anything like that. rap has no talent cause anyone with a pecker the size of a bay carrot can rap. but good music can still be good music even though you dont like it, but the catch is that you still have to like it and appreciate it because it has a real good guitar lick or something cool like that. but it is also just what you like and dig.
