I really didn't know that a discussion of Gaga could get so serious. lol.
People like/don't like what I listen to on a regular basis. It's ok.
*scrolls in iPod to "Gin and Juice"*

PiKA, I think the point is that there’s nothing TRULY new about music today, and not that there isn’t any other music out there besides the 20 top songs that are played on the radio 24 hours a day.
The second half of the last century brought a lot of things to music that people had never really seen or heard before…
KISS, with their crazy makeup and outfits.. The Beatles, the first true boy band that girls went CRAZY for… Queen, which needs no explanation. There were songs that people loved that were more than 10 minutes long (and in some cases, much longer). There was the creation of rock ‘n roll, Motown, disco, rap, hip hop, R&B and grunge… and crazy guitar riffs that most people only wish they could play. Woodstock.. need I say more? (I could go on and on with this list...)
The point is, years and years later, people still LOVE the music of those 50 years or so. Hell, I love that music, and I’m not even old enough to have been able to truly live most of it.
It almost seems as though there's nothing new to create.
In 20 years, what “classics” will still be playing on the radio from this generation?

 I was going to say The Temptations but they were also founded in 1960. The Beatles beat them in terms of mainstream success but I love The Temptations more and listen to their greatest hits almost everyday.
There were boy bands before 1960 that I loved but none that received the mainstream critical acclaim and notoriety (even generations later) that The Beatles received.

True. I was just starting something.
As for the Beatles v Temptations, it was pretty close. British invasion was in December 63, and Temps had their big hit in January 64.

BluPhire... if I missed another group, please inform me!
The Beatles are just that classic boy band that I'll always picture getting off of planes with screaming girls around them (and everything DrPhil said).
And they were so much cuter than the boy bands of today!

I finally heard the stupid song that inspired this stupid thread. I don't think it has anything to do with Lady Gaga.

It is the copy of her style. Gaga copied the big cone boobs from Madonna and now Katy Perry is doing it because the industry thinks wild outfits make you more popular! Katy Perry described herself as a confident girl from next door and then she wears blue hair? Just a major sell out!!

So apparently someone, on the behalf of the Beach Boys, is talking about suing Katy Perry if she doesn't hand over royalties for her song "California Gurls."
Apparently because Snoop says "I wish they all could be California Girls" that they automatically stole their ideas from the Beach Boys.
Seriously? So whenever someone says that line, we have to pay royalties to the BB? Oh Lord.

People just like finding a way to make some extra cash without actually working for it. Kind of like the lady that got over on McDonalds for serving her hot coffee.
