“Ugly” and “good music” are subjective
Video killed the radio star
Politics too
Lol, do you think only pop star music exist? It’s actually the contrary that happend. Now, more than ever, anyone can make music. This is a really bad take.
Beauty is, of course, in the eye of the beholder, but this is Richard Goodall. He’s a school janitor in my town of Terre Haute, Indiana and he just won America’s Got Talent. He will probably have at least a somewhat successful musical career after this. He really blew people away.
I’d like to thank this thread for reminding me to check out some new music. Just today, I have discovered MJ Lenderman and Still House Plants who both seem to be doing some cool stuff that’s right up my alley. There’s a new Mogwai track released a few days back and Sumac just released an amazing sludge metal album, even though I’m not really into sludge, it might convert me. A quick few image searches shows me that none of them are particularly attractive. Music has always been, and always will be awesome regardless of the physical appeal of the lead singers.
I want the milkman to deliver my milk… in the myorning.
Come to Daddy
“Ugly” people still make music but apparently you don’t listen to it. Shameful, tbh.
They aren’t even ugly, they’re just beautiful in a different way than media accepts.

And the guest rappers killed the guitar solo.
Ugly people
are stillhave always been making it, pop acts have just make a pretty person pretend to sing it it sells better.I am convinced that producers go out with a company checkbook and standard boilerplate, find acts that have good songs, then buy the rights to those songs.
They then give the songs to larger pop artists and never credit the original artist because there is no need. They likely pay well for a decent song.
They pay song writers to create songs.
They do.
It’s extremely rare that people like Taylor Swift get as big as she is from writing her own songs.There are actual classes you can take on how to write pop songs, taught by people who made pop artists big.
just figured out, what? pop has always been pretty people…
ugly people aren’t allowed to make music anymore?
well fuck me then.
its why ed sheeran was killed he made music
Literally the first person I thought of when reading the title of this post
F in chat for ed sheeran, and ugly ugly man, who made not very good music, but was loved by, some people.
it was hilarious seeing him on game of thrones. my buddy told me in one of the next episodes id see someone id recognize and i never thought itd be him 😂
he was in game of thrones? When? Can we blame the downfall on him now? lol.
It’s a throwaway scene of some Lannister troops around a campfire. Arya and The Hound walk up. It has no bearing on the story, it’s just a cameo. Ditto with the guy from Coldplay that’s in the band during the Red Wedding.
Red Wedding, Red Wedding, Lots of stabbing and a little beheading
🎶Bum bum bum bupadubbadub🎵"
ah, bummer.
Coldplay is in it also? Man no wonder why the last season was so bad.
uhh coldplay was in the show during its peak…
I hade to google this lmao
Shake hands with beef ;-)
Primus sucks
“music was better when…”
Any version of this makes the speaker sound suuuper old and bitter. 😂
tbh we are all just snapshots of ourselves at different stage of the same cycle. The Simpsons did a whole thing about lolapalooza which starts with homer looking for his favourite artists in a record store, and the record store dude, and being directed to the oldies section.
The bands that feature in that episode are the smashing pumpkins, soundgarden , cypress Hill and Peter Frampton, all of whom appear in Spotify old school lists
Oh sure, everything new becomes old eventually, that’s just how time works. I’m more poking fun at those who let their nostalgia determine what is worthwhile.
My highschool music is better than your highschool music!
Music was way better when the musicians snorted the good ol yayo.
I had a luthier tell me how much was much better before the record. How artists would perform live and have to do their best in these performances.
Once records came around all the artists sold out and it has been downhill from there.
“Ok, can I have my guitar back, please…”
Nah, generally yes, but this particular follow up is hilarious. When ugly people made it haha
At least he doesnt like all newer music simply because the artist look better.
