Their songs play to the Disney fairytale fantasy about love that so many people still believe in. In this day and time they are merchants selling a desireable product to the masses, and they make money doing so. That's all it is. Try to recognize reality.

We all feel heartache, whether we are stars or not.

Nothing motivates a person more. For nearly every great song, there existed some beautiful woman who brought some man great joy and proportionally great sadness. When a woman inspires a man to create an immortal form of art in her memory, appreciate her. Consider that sound waves and images shine off into space and will survive long after the Earth.

Because musicians are artists and artists are weirdos.

I don't understand some people's fascination with art. I'm more of a science and technology guy.

Science and art are the same thing. Newton wrote Calculus the way Paul McCartney wrote Hey Jude. They were expressing their vision.

Newton didn't "write" calculus. He discovered it's laws. Calculus existed before Newton existed, but it had yet to be discovered.

Calculus existed before human beings existed. As did chemistry, quantum physics, etc.

Math and science and things that were discovered.

Technology is the application of these things into useful inventions such as the steam engine or machine gun.

I miss the days of classic 70s rock. They had their AFC songs too.
But there were a whole lot of songs that were about banging groupies after the show.

McCartney said he didn't write Hey Jude, he just interpreted that energy that was emanating at that time.

Music and harmony existed before human beings.

That's how I feel about music. I tap into something that already exists rather than create. All answers and possibilities already exist. They're just waiting for the right questions.

Do you think Justin Bieber, One Direction, Bruno Mars, Usher etc practice the stuff they sing/preach?

Get real. They're salesmen selling a product. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Looks and money are not "king". These things won't hurt you obviously, but if you depend on them to attract women, those are exactly the type of women you will attract. Women who only care about money. Shallow women who only care about looks.

You already have your answer on the music.
I disagree with this.

Are you "shallow" for liking attractive women instead of obese ones?

Why do people always ignore the intelligence it takes to make money? It's not like it fell out of the sky. And they always assume that a guy with money will just stupidly spend it on any girl who talks to him.

Agree or disagree with whatever you want to, brother. It's your life. So long as you're happy.



Yeah. Probably.



They aren't ignoring it. They just can't use it to buy designer purses, shoes and vacations.
So how can you blame a girl for being shallow if you are shallow also?

When I was asking why people ignore the intelligence it takes to make money... I was referring to the guys on this forum who claim that money doesn't matter. They act like it just fell out of the sky and that a person who worked hard/smart to get money has no more value than some loser who sits home and smokes pot all day.

A Well known, handsome, multi talented musician and dancer like Chris Brown isnt directly a DJ. His net worth is about 40 million usd and he is desperate af. Got a restriction to contact ex's, beats his gf and drunk drives to his ex's to yell in front of her house or begg her back. (Karuche Tran)

Money, looks and talent doesnt make a DJ.

One time I talked to his gf on FaceBook and she was ugly af.

Also, one time I saw 50 Cent at a bottle signing thing and his gf was also hideous and fat.

And look at someone like Eminem... I don't even think he likes girls.

These claims that they are faking are a load of bs. Even salesmen have to generally like and believe in the product they are selling. Same as musicians! please provide another reason because that's a load of booty.

No, tons of musicians come out saying they wrote garbage songs they didn't believe in.

Sometimes they write songs that are true or based on real experiences that are embellished to make them more interesting or appealing, and other times they don't. Simple.

Like I said, if that's what you're depending on, those are the type of women you will attract. That doesn't mean you shouldn't strive to live a comfortable life.
This, you make money for you... not for the poosay. If you feel you need to have money to get and keep b1tches. Well your already a trick.

Incorrect, those are just labels. Everything just is
