      Well, I mean nostalgia is a negative force that we should rid ourselves of. Nostalgia is when you like something JUST because it's from your past and not because of any actual merit. It's the same delusion that makes old people say the 1960s were "a better time" despite objectively not being. That's not to say that older stuff can't be good, obviously I'm not saying that, but things should be looked at for what they actually are, not what you falsely remember them as.

    The thing about Fergie's version of the National Anthem (vocals aside) is why you would ever want to drag out the National Anthem more than it already is by doing a smooth jazz rendition? No one really takes into account how long the anthem is because most renditions usually end in the same amount of time or aren't at a slow tempo that feels like it's deliberate.
    I just really want to who wrote off the idea of Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas singing jazz.

    Gotye's making mirrors has been part of my music library ever since 2012 and it still holds up today. And the album is covering alot of topics and emotions. My favorites are "Bronte" (can barely listen to it without choking up). "State of the art" is technically awesome and "eyes wide open". That album deserves more recognition.
    "Somebody that i used to know" is still a fantastic piece of art but i agree with you in that it's far from his best work.

    "The most obvious choice every time." That's what watching Black Clover feels like to watch, but that gets some points for being simplistic in an anime-ocean where they love to overexplain everything.

    I would actually highly recommend listening to Black Eyed Peas before they became poppy and especially before Fergie came onboard. They were a traditional 90s rap band like A Tribe Called Quest with very smooth instrumentals. Listen to Street Livin', Clap Your Hands & Say Goodbye.

    I personally enjoy the 1st works from TBEP, even if they are not profound, but their beats, visuals and the way they presented themselves was funny and invites you to enjoy with others. Im just not going to pretend they are above better artist and musicians. I understand adum is mad im more in mood to hear a full album of black eyed peas that 1 album of goety. But i can do both.

    Hate to defend fergie, but to be fair you can kind of make any song seem insane if you just play it and then do an impression of them. However its real hard to defend fergie ngl because my god if you go back to a lot of black eyed peas music, you start to realise she is a pretty weak singer, she doesn't have the pipes to be a pop diva

    I just went on a road trip this last weekend, and my bf and I debated for at least an hour about whether the Gotye song is written from two different perspectives, or if that's just how it's performed. Two totally different interpretations, depending on how you look at it.

    @10:00 Eminem is a master of the dramatic relationship/narrative type songs, w/ _Kim_ & _Stan,_ but 2pac was the OG w/those emotional narrative tracks. Some great 1s from Pac are _Brenda's got a Baby, Shorty wanna be a Thug, Don't Ya Trust Me?_ ft. Dido. Outkast & Slick Rick both have some great 1s too, specifically _Tha Art of Storytellin'._ 1 more modern recent 1 that i absolutely love is Rittz ft Yelawolf - _Sleep at Night._ Yelawolf has a lot of them too now that i think about it, _Tennesee Love_ being another banger in that same style that I adore.
    *Edit:* NF is another of my more recent favorites, whom also has a ton of great narrative style songs as well.

    Bro, as much as I respect your opinions and criticisms. Really nobody pays as much attention to progressions and notes etc as much as you think they do.
    I've been into music for a long time and for me personally it's all about expression and catharsis in music. Structure and correctness in technique or whatever is little to no value to me unless it's terribly obvious how bad it is that even someone that knows nothing about music can notice.
    I feel like you're a little too picky and critical when it comes to music, it's all about feeling as far as I'm concerned.
