George Michael slams pop
10/12/2005 - 16:12:43
George Michael has hit out at the contemporary pop scene, claiming the word
has become a "byword for s**t".
The former Wham! Star insists he has nothing against the genre - only what
it now represents.
that these days pop has become a byword for s**t."

When was the last time George Michael recorded a good song, 1988? Most
modern pop is indeed the s-word, but he's a hypocrite because he
apparently hasn't made any good modern songs. He should STFU until he
writes a good song. He gets to sing the theme for the upcoming James
Bond movie; my prediction is he'll eff it up.

Well, I don't have to be a successful pop star to think that today's music
(most of it) is bland, processed, generic, tedious, overproduced,
predictable and uninspiring...
Then again, I could just be your basic old fogey. I used to know every song
ever released, but time seemed to stop in 1994 and I just remain
congealed... I still consider "Mr. Jones" by Counting Crowes a "new"
song, and I like it.
There are other songs I hear that I kind of like (like, at the gym) but I
have no idea who they are.

Sometime after Oasis/early Radiohead/NIN I lost interest in new music.
Caught up on a lot of other artists like Lucinda Williams and Alison
Krause over the last couple years, but nothing new holds my interest at
all.

The main "musical" thing George Michael has done for the past 15+ years
is play the skin flute!
