"I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" is a hot, cringey mess and I wouldn't be surprised if the person who hated that song more than anyone was Stephen Tyler but it still works. I say this as a post-70s Aerosmith hater btw.

miss me with race on this one

Clapton was great in Cream.

I don't think that you're consciously aware of your racism btw.

if crying over them hasn't been a pastime of yours then it might not resonate

girls, cars, guitars

So rockabilly is only good because you're nostalgic about it.

Nostalgic about something that you've been listening to for a long time.

I'm a little confused about your Roy Orbison comment then.

in the same vein of songwriting being more important than musicianship mixed with a bunch of the music being low budget recorded and self released
What does that have to do with rockabilly's bland and trite songwriting conventions?

Nope.

If technical ability doesn't matter to you, then how easy it is to learn something shouldn't either.

Brave Captain is better than any Minutemen song

all that comes to mind is Minutemen at times
