Why are so few people bothered by the lousy radio pop charts?
This is such insignificant music. It has no atmosphere. Disgustingly digitally produced. And then it's out the window again after a month. There's so much terrible music in the charts! Unbearable. The people who consume it scare me. Especially when you know what gigantic songs, which still have an impact today, were produced in the pop genre in the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s. That all the radio listeners don't complain about this loss of quality. No, they sit in their cars and listen to this acoustic crap with a frozen smile. What has happened to people that they have become so devoid of feeling? These Vincent Weiss housewives and pop-music pop music poppers. And on Big FM these grotesque auto-tune voice-distorting singers who burp over some house-R&B-whatever beat, thus catering to the sweatpants-wearing idiots in front of the radio. What on earth has happened? How did we become so disenchanted and detached that people no longer have any interest in beautiful chord progressions? And then there are always these teeny girls with their artificially fragile-sounding, constantly deliberately depressing songs. There's a whole army of whining girls like that. And Generation Z eats it out of their hands! What has happened?

Well, I know why I haven’t heard a radio for 20 years. It is also no question it genres. Almost every genre has produced outstanding artists. At Wincent Weiss I also get ear cancer. And this super-trial autotune man also annoys. Most of what’s going on in the mainstream radio is either annoying, boring, lengthy or even aggressive.
You once analyzed pop music from the 50s to this day. Particular attention has been paid to composition, arrangement, dynamic range, etc. One has actually found that in section everything has become much simpler. Artistic content has few songs. There are still exceptions (e.g. Sia), but they are becoming increasingly rare.
What annoys me is that a lot of people go on – I call it that – party music. Mainly cool beats and you can dance. Intense music, such as classical music, so fewer people can start something.
You can’t start sia, but in principle I’m right to you.
Sia stops – for pop conditions! – demanding music, but in today’s sound. There are several things that nerve, especially from the end of the ninths:
Songs are not played to the end, guitar solos are cut out. The phenomenon was even in the seventies. But it was felt at the end of the 90s / early 2000s driven from the radio stations to the top. Instrumental parts seem to be somehow boring, which I don’t understand at all. I can listen to instrumental music for 10 hours without getting bored.
You can only listen to information channels, classical radio or just specialized internet radio. With everything else, you have to be afraid that Andreas Bourani or James Blunt will be around the corner.
A few months after Kings Of Leon released their “Only By The Night” album, “Notion” was the third most famous song. I was addressed by a radio station at the time on the street. I could wish a song. I wanted that song. The lady told me they probably wouldn’t bring it, even though the song was in the charts at the time.
Yes, they must not be an independent character. Not related to personality or song selection. It must always sound the same. In addition, the songs are already fixed.
🤣Yes, right. Do the moderators really remember how silly this is? Or do you have to prove that you have no musical requirements?
Yeah, bad. The third of these radio leaders are now the song Intros, which will be sung with advertising for the radio station, in the robe of the song, which follows it and then goes without glare into the original song about😂
Every time he has his music. My parents also found everything we heard in the 80/90s.
Because they didn’t like the genre pop. That’s different.
If it bothers me, I’ll change the transmitter – so easy.
Sometimes you just want a little background sound. I personally don’t hear any 08/15-popsenders, but I don’t consider it as a sin when others do.
because gangta-rap is trendy and with trendy music make radio stations more money than with music that only listen to 5% of people.
Well, this Music works nowadays, it meets the nerve of time.
Claimless music with substanceless texts and homogeneity in the presentation, so that the end of one song and the beginning of the other hardly comes along – this is the right thing in this short-lived time, in which everything must go faster, higher, further.
What this means about time is left to your interpretation.
I think it’s really sad.
That’s it, too. The radio has become a sprinkling medium as it is television.
That’s nothing new. If I listen to what was in the 90s and 80s in the charts today, I also get the grayling, at least in many parts.
You just have to know that charts are producing yourself. Not the actual taste of the people decides, but what the transmitters want to hear. Geduddel as a self-filling prophecy.
You just need to compare the LP sales figures with the radio charts.
Of course. I’ve been observing this threat for a long time with great discomfort. I have already encountered many faces of this phenomenon and none of these were just to look nice.
But this is a real disaster, you know that?
And precisely this conditioning on instinctiveness, this lovebird with objective and emotional simplification with ever greater and stronger stimuli is the problem.
(a) The terrible music without being aware of the qualitative lack at all. b) Superficial. Take care. Deromantized. Irritation flooded. c) Receptivity for ever-increasing mucke.
Of course it’s shaping people. It’s hard to talk about. It is simply not a clear quality feature.
The legitimate questions here are: What shapes it, b) What are the consequences?
People still allow it to shape.
You speak to me from the soul. I rarely like current hits.
It works with me as well as with the bad TV program. The spell is, turn it out.
I listen to the music I like and watch movies/series I like. Other people like other things and that’s completely okay. I would never waste my time trying to upset myself about the bad tastes of other people as long as they don’t want to give me that to you.
The renewable generation is a pure consumer society.
Elevator music, cheap shop multipliers… no matter what. The main thing is cheap and Amazon delivers on time.
In the past, music was made by hand, today it can also come from the digital gum machine. Doesn’t interest anyone whether you understand the text at all or whether it has a spiritual content.
I don’t know why this is. With me at work in the craftsmanship I often do 80s and 90s. If you don’t last long then someone else makes another radio with radio standard music and mine is even done. As long as you don’t have current music, you’ll be looked at strangely and asked what you hear for music, etc.
So music From Spotify and Digitalized Music from CD in Flac format.
Right! This is an interesting phenomenon and goes very strongly in my eyes towards “The radio listener (as a consumer) is conditioned to such an extent that he does not find mainstream music strange.
I can remember that a friend of the time played “Dead can dance”. It was unusual for me for the first time, but I let myself in and listened to some albums of this band.
I still like some songs from them today (for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUvE-3GPzH0 ), but not all the pieces of the two met (and meet) my music taste.
Regardless of this, I can’t be friends with various musical directions (for example, I can’t start with various metal species or folk music)
