Music

Music is my life. I live eat breath dream and ... am...? music.
What is the point of this you ask?
The point, my dear readers, is that I am very saddened
And you wanna know what saddens me?
People always say how much they love music
And how they're obsessed with it and stuff
But they only listen to one specific thing
They don't even give other stuff a chance
Like, rappers always hating on rock
Or rockers always hating on psychadelia
Personally, I think there is good music in all genres
Yes, I'm even talking country
Name any genre (except dubstep, I still haven't gotten around to listening to it yet, I have been meaning to)
and I'm almost certain that I can name a band that I like from it
Country: Johnny Cash
Rap: Beastie Boys
Rock: The Beatles (duh, but some count them as pop :/ so-) Alice in Chains or the Doors
Grunge: Nirvana
Screamo: Escape the Fate (I've recently been really getting into them actually, It's Just Me is awesome)
Psychedelia: Jefferson Airplane
Go on, test me (I dare you)

Another thing that ticks me off is how some people get so technical about music
You can be an awesome guitarist, but be completely technical about it
But you wouldn't be the best guitarist
Jimi Hendrix was so great because it was emotion
Emotion is what truly makes music
Yes, of course you need knowledge of music too to be great
But music is truly built on emotion
I think you feel music more than you hear it to be honest
Call me crazy if you want

Anyways, that's all. My friends and I were talking about music earlier and they were shooting me crap about having a bipolar sense in music ... and everything else O.o but that's another topic (no, I'm not actually bipolar ... well I haven't been diagnosed for it so idk). We started gettting into these topics, at least they agreed music is emotion.
