LOL Im kinda old school when it comes to purchasing music. Its exciting for me to buy a GOOD new release and to have it in my hands lol Also, when it comes to some of my favorite artists, I like to go out and support them.


To answer your question, I dont buy new releases majority of the time. I try to build my catalogue by buying old releases simply because I enjoy older music more. I know I can download the album but I like supporting the artist especially if I really enjoy the album.

I dont really look at pop music any differently than the other types I listen too. I treat all the music I listen to equally. If its a good song, its a good song regardless if its pop or not. If its creative, then its creative whether its pop or not and so forth.

For instance Ive heard some thought provoking pop music and then Ive heard some bland undeground music and vice versa. All music can be creative and artistic. Even "fun music" can be creative and daring ; )

In Gaga's case, she has the ability to be more artistically than what the song suggests.

I totally agree. The whole reason I come to pop is for easily-accessible catchiness. Creativity is great, but if you give me a more creative song and put it up against a catchier song, I'm gonna go with the ear worm every time. I don't think there's anything wrong with listening to music that's not particularly original. For thousands of years people have been listening to musicians who played the same songs over and over again, most of which had been around for hundreds of years in one form or another. So listening to a song that may be derivative of another song from last year or last decade isn't really such a big deal.

You are actually supporting their label and not the artist. The best way to support the artist is getting merch at concerts. They hardly get anything from a purchase of their album.

Apparently Lady Gaga is accusing Perez Hilton of stalking her. He's denying it.
