if a song makes me weep and/or makes my brain feel funky its a good song regardless of the music theory behind it
REALL Like if the song isn't making me violently sob or scratching the good parts of my brain I ain't gonna listen to it
I'm an avid Taylor Swift hater. Fight me🤷🏿♀️
I thought I'd never see the day I find someone else who hates her
@@saikoormike lmao it's quite common but when someone says it they're get persecuted, essentially be silenced
I like Taylor swift. Idgaf what people like or dislike. You do you 🤷♀️
@@saikoormike its the most common thing in the world bro ur not special literally 70% of the people i meet hate her you've probably never listened to anything past her hits
@@4.9.a.l.i.7.7 I was just joking, I'm not the biggest fan of her music but it's good
as Elvis Presley once said; "Music should be something that makes you gotta move, inside or outside." and i stand by that! , great video :)
Such a good quote
My friend is a musician and omg you can really tell the difference between the radio pop songs and the more obscure songs or her own original music in terms of how complicated the piano is or how well it shows off her voice. A song with emotion will always feel that emotion, a song for tiktok will never have that feeling
i agree but some people need to tell the difference between a song viral on tiktok, and a song MADE to be viral on tiktok
@@4.9.a.l.i.7.7 Some songs since circa '019 have gone viral on TikTok by coincidence, and some were tailored to, but which one is more common, and what different circumstances are likely to bring either one about?
that bass riff at the end was just *chef's kiss*
Great video, one other thing I think is why some generic sounding artists are so popular is because they make stuff meant to be more listenable for everyone and prioritize that over making the best music possible
Absolutely for sure
When McClung '010 shaves, he looks like he would've been only a yearling by the time Episode #1507 of South Park aired. It's the episode where all the kids were into a genre named "tween wave." It was a very simplistic genre, meant as an allegory to all the genres that had either come into existence or rose into prominence since circa '009 (before McClung would look like he was born!), which divided their youth target audiences when previous decades' music had mostly united young people behind them, the most infamous at the time which was dubstep. Given the direction music was going in since the turn of the '010s Decade, I'd say McClung and I were dealt a terrible hand in what music is most popular.
i think my feelings would be hurt a bit if someone told me my music taste is basic :’) ALSO COOL BASS DUDE !!!!
THANK YOU
Omg hey fellow subscriber I hope we can become moots asap!!!!!!
@@nicoolio9379YESSSS LETS DOOO ITTTTT
Call me hypocritical if you have to, but I didn't see what was so special about "Poker Face" any more than McClung '010 did. While not nearly as bad as the Russell Crowe star vehicle of the same name from '022, I had trouble relating to electronic dance pop ever since Lady Gaga set the standard back in '009. I'm still stumped on why popular music went in that direction around that particular time.
idk why but i really need to say this laufey has such good songs they make my brain vibrate and my legs move on their own and i feel like drake when he smells a warm pie
I don’t even normally listen to her or like the genre, but I listened to a few clips of the songs and can agree that her music is really good and she is really talented and unique
Honestly I really just think the only thing that makes a song inherently good is if it means something for you personally which is a very subjective opinion. While I don’t like pop music I understand that some people connect and relate to it. Pop music still invoked emotion in a lot of people. Everyone has their own genres and artists that they connect to, and while yes it is a problem that some music only gets popular because it has a big name behind it, some people still connect to that music. Even Ed Sheeran… I’ve seen people sob while listening to Ed Sheeran because of their emotional attachment to it. Overall I think it’s just a little irresponsible to say that X music is better than Y because that’s purely opinion. Just because you personally connect with it more doesn’t mean that it’s inherently better than a more popular artist.
I just meant when referring to the whole box thing, I definitely get that lots of people like lots of different music!
I agree but only partially. Sometimes even radio music can be interesting, maybe the artist themselves are not the brightest producers ever but there are many talented people working behind the scenes, like Sophie (may she rest in peace) working on "bitch I'm Madonna", other times songs are not meant to be enjoyed on the radio but they're really fun to dance to. This doesn't apply to Lady Gaga I love her and most of her music is great, and I say this as someone with a 9h long the Residents playlist and a love for experimental, weird and unsettling music in general (you should check out the residents btw!!! They're so great). I also rarely listen to the radio and most songs I hear there when I do are in italian because of where I live so maybe if I listened to the radio more I would be more of a hater (it's easy to defend popular music when I can just listen to my silly little harsh noise playlists instead of Ed Sheeran or Taylor Swift)
I get where your coming from thanks for the input!
Did "The Residents" happen to take any inspiration from survival horror games such as Resident Evil?
hilarious video with some really solid points, you're super underrated dude. keep making stuff
I WILL😤
Honestly having synesthesia is so fun while listening to music ( especially music with a lot of bass ) especially immigrant song by Led Zeppelin it’s so cool looking :D
very cool bass and great video! You should talk about music more it sounds like you have great taste and you know what you're talking about
I just like lots of stuff but who knows I might cover music again some day
YAYYYY LOUIS MCCLUNG VIDEO
Ok but Dua Lipa slaps (coming from a goth/metalhead) 🙊
me who has listened to polyphia before ever picking up a sheet of music O-o
Well I don't know sheet music but that's really cool anyway!!!
Literally spent like the last day and a half listening to the requiem for a dream soundtrack bc I couldn’t get the songs out of my head after watching. That soundtrack is a masterpiece meltdown fills me with such dread 😍
Requiem For a Dream was 2nd only to Gladiator on the Top 40 Films of '000, and the soundtrack was an understatedly big part of the reason why.
If you want to hear a really crazy and weird song, then the Mind Electric is a good choice. If you *really* listen to the lyrics, then you can tell it’s telling a story. You can google the meaning (it’s weird) and then kind of get how the lyrics were telling that.
also YAYYY you’re not sick anymore!!! 🎉🎉
Bass player 💪💪
I was shaking this whole video as a music fan page
LOVE this shirt on you, Louis ✨
As an up and coming producer, I do appreciate the love for instrumental music 🙏
SIICK BASS OUTRO 🗣🗣🗣🗣 im so glad someone agrees on this mf doom any time any day😭😭
8:15 the other day i listened to i never told you what i do for a living by mcr and physically could not sit still lmao
haters gonna hate but Tally Hall forever 💪💪💪💪
Real
i enjoyed this video. thank you.
OF COURSE!
my music taste is just ajr, weezer, rare americans, emamouse, random video game soundtracks, and almost any vocaloid song
I music taste consists of Will Wood, Will Wood again (tape worm edition), Lemon Demon, Tally Hall, Weezer, They Might Be Giants, and The Tragically Hip. So to sum up my music taste; this guy gets called slurs, that’s guy that’s not to popular at school.
polyphia🔥🔥🔥
I think it's ironic that genres which defined music prior to the New Millennium, such as classical, orchestral, jazz, and rock, have been pushed away from the recording industry yet are still prominent in every entertainment medium *except* music. Video game soundtracks, film scores, and TV shows still use those older, more instrument-driven genres, but the music people are *forced* to hear in public, particularly in retail and restaurants, hasn't in a decade.
Big Taylor swift fan here. I understand where you are coming from. But I would love to here what songs you think she plays with different lyrics? Just trying to think of any and would love to hear it from someone who isn’t a swiftie! No hate ofc! 💗
Do you mind clarifying, I'd love to give you an answer
Like, which songs do u think she plays each album? I would love to send you some songs that I think are really good and see what you think
I mean her popular songs usually about the new person she's dating or has recently broken up with and how she's so sad/happy about it depending, they all just bleed together to me @@user-uf5zk1kw8x
I get that completely! I do feel her latest albums have so much less break up songs! Albums like Red have lots of break up songs because that’s what she was going through. I think that’s one of the reasons we love her so much, she writes what’s going on in her life at the moment and in a way people can insert themselves into. What you said about radio songs really stood out to me. I think Taylor Swift has some of the most radio friendly songs out there and those become the songs we classify with her albums. Songs like Anti-Hero are what we associate Midnights as, but I don’t think that’s the best song. She has a habit of writing one major pop song for that radio that gets famous and leaving the best (in my opinion) songs in the dust! Sorry for the paragraph💀
@@user-uf5zk1kw8x no no worries at all, thanks for your input
I don't know if you're still looking for something to call your fans, kinda random, but you've mentioned "ranting to the void" a couple times, you could possibly call your fans the void :) just an idea
Best suggestion I've gotten but I think I've given up on it sadly...
@@Louis_McClung Very sad. If you ever really feel like it again I would love to give my input on other ideas I'd have :D
ooooo wait that sounds so cool!!!! hehe the void
yea you look like you'd play the bass louis
Why thank you, the bass is a beautiful instrument!
Nice video dude 👍
What do you think about a "storm and a spring"?
opinion on laufey? i absolutely love her 😭🩷 and i’m so happy she’s getting recognized and on tour
I think she's cool for sure!
I recommend Cornbugs. It’s a really weird rock band with bill Moseley and buckethead. I think they only have like 400 listeners on spotify despite having two famous people.
one of my yfavourite people ever that makes good music is jhariah. he does like weird hard to place genre mixes and literally his entire thing is "no genre all drama" and its so cool
another good one is kevin kempt, he sort of does rap? but also not at the same time
Good music is good.
You can like a musician that makes bad music. That’s a-ok, but to me good music is simply something that makes my ears go “mmm, yes.”
Look up Weird Beard and tell me if it's basic. It's a real song and goes SO HARD. my music taste is the opposite of npc music.
I may say my music taste is bad but I mean. Bro the tech clashing sounds with random samples explains my ADHD in a way that means something to me
What do you think about "Tally hall"?
5:47 people act like dream doesn't prey on kids when he literally tours with the most basic dogwater music that sounds like the stuff i made when I was 12 and had just picked up my guitar and gets 9 year olds to spend all their money to listen to his voice cracks, BUT HEY! THAT'S JUST MY OPINION!
We need a video on Doja Cat🎉
YOOO I DIDNT REALISE YOU WERE A BASSIST BASS IS SO SICK
crediting you every time i listen to king gizzard and the lizard wizard now
dude i listened to them and woah. wtf they’re so COOOOL
I think the English/western world is just lacking. The top and most popular songs in japan (that are Japanese) are all unique bangers
My music taste is like mid 2000s emo music lol. Like mcr, fob, p!atd, and some other stuff. And im a Taylor Swift music hater. I hate her music. But if you're a swiftie, cool i guess
I agree that Charlie Puth is a npc artist but i like him a lot.. and for what? Lol not for his music, I just find him soo cute
(And because you said he can't focus on other things while playing music in bg is because he has a perfect pitch. anyways I'm not defending anyone, I hate that culture bty, just a fact)
Wow I’m the 100 comment
you're so cool but u look like a weezer song
The what!!!
Carly Simon, anyone?
Why would you start a video talking about Taylor Swift and then switch it up to talking about music? 😮😅
first
Msi is a one of a life time band, and that's all I listen to. I listen to mother mother too. But msi rules. Msi has lots of complexity and meaning, and jimmy urine is such an amazing singer. Their music deserves more popularity. Too bad jimmy urine is such a terrible person, so he tainted the bands name so much. Mindless Self Indulgence for life.
ethel cain. god. listening to her music makes me feel like i’m being reborn.
as a taylor swift fan, i dont feel safe here🧍♂️/j. but great video!! i just discovered you randomly and i think you became one of my fav youtubers 🫶
WOAH NO WAY, and you are welcome even if I don't like her music, I respect your opinion!!!
