arcade fire grammy reaction.

please view this tumblr

So clearly 80% of america listens to no other music besides the radio. I myself am not a huge fan of arcade fire. It's really quite disappointing. I must say that lady gaga as far as music goes is not original. Her new long sounds like madonnas express yourself...in fact shortly after the song was released madonnas official youtube page posted that video. Lady gaga you are unique in your style and performance, but not in your music. One of the comments from the tumblr said that rock music isn't popular anymore, it's not the 80s. Are you kidding me. It just really sucks that people don't appreciate the musicality. There's a huge difference between what's popular and what's good. People that are singing the top 10 songs right now are not genuine musicians, for the most part. It's nice to see that real music beat auto-tune. I also liked seeing the Avett Brothers and Mumford & Sons...unreal! But you could tell that kind of crowd was not their main fans. It was weird that Jennifer Lopez was listening to my favourite band.

This arcade fire album also had a lot of hype and a lot of support behind it from websites like pitchfork and the like...it's really not undeserved.

Long live real music!
