And how is the "party standard" any sort of standard of the quality of music?
What are you rambling about? I didn't respond to a question about if Neutral Milk Hotel is quality music. I responded to a question of whether it was fun music. I think its a wonderful piece of art and great to listen to. I don't think its really fun.
I don't know why you think I was saying the "party standard" was the quality of music. I was bringing up the party standard to the guy who said 23 year olds should be ashamed to like a certain type of music. I said that is pretty stupid when 23 year olds care a lot about partying and, whether you admit it or not, you WILL have more fun at parties if you enjoy the music they are playing.

What kind of douchey nonsense is this? Obviously most people haven't. If drinking with the artist is necessary for their music to be considered fun or party music by party-goers then parties will die out pretty soon once the masses are informed.

This thread was a fun read.
And I've never heard Taylor at a party or college bar.

Sorry you didn't get invited to parties or have friends to go with to college bars.

I and everyone else in attendance would all sing tubthumping in unison as it played on the speaker in college bars back in the late 90's, knowing all the while that it was shite.

How old are you? If you didn't go to the parties and bars when she was popular, your comment isn't really relevant. If you went to bars in the last couple years, well, you're wrong. 22, Trouble, Never Getting Back Together, and Shake It Off didn't just not play on the days you happened to go.
It really has nothing to do with how good she is. They played how much they played. And it was a lot.

It is tempting to confuse pop music with popular music. The New Grove Dictionary Of Music and Musicians, the musicologist's ultimate reference resource, identifies popular music as the music since industrialization in the 1800's that is most in line with the tastes and interests of the urban middle class. This would include an extremely wide range of music from vaudeville and minstrel shows to heavy metal. Pop music, on the other hand, has primarily come into usage to describe music that evolved out of the rock 'n roll revolution of the mid-1950's and continues in a definable path to today.
taylor swift cant be classified as pop..

How much bitching about boys does she do on this one? Or is she "over" that kind of songwriting now?
Posted on 10/28/14 at 11:06 pm to TheSexecutioner
Just saw where it sold 600,000 copies in first 24 hours. WOW. The Queen of music!

The whole album is supposedly a "concept" album centering on the rise and fall of her relationship with one of the dude's in One Direction. At least according to the Stereogum premature eval.
quote:
Most of the songs on 1989 seem to concern Harry Styles, the most visible member of One Direction, who Swift dated a while back. She never names him, or even alludes to his name, though clues are there if you want to mine for them. (She makes constant reference to a car crash; she’s probably really alluding to a serious snowmobile crash that she and Styles apparently once got into.) But the specifics don’t matter as much as the subtle but genuine arc that the LP traces. It starts with excitement and play and intrigue, and it blossoms into something deeper around the time “Out Of The Woods” kicks in. But things turn bad quickly, and most of the album is Swift dealing with a breakup. She gets fire-eyed pissed on “Bad Blood,” cajoles on “I Wish You Would,” provides an exact roadmap for how to rekindle things on “How You Get The Girl.” By the time closing track “Clean” kicks in, she’s convinced herself that she’s OK with the whole thing, that she’s ready to move on.

So it's just like "Recovering the Satellites", except shitty.
Or in fairness, maybe not shitty.
But probably shitty. If I were to wager, I'd say shitty.
But maybe not.

Have been frequenting Tigerland the past few years as well. I promise you they are. Taylor Swift is absolutely played at Bogie's and Freds. You must not be paying attention that hard. Which theres nothing wrong with that. The mark of a good night at Bogies or Freds isn't remember the playlist. Opposite if anything. But she gets played very frequently.
