@Hoshi no Suna: I wrote a lot so here's a spoiler to contain it lol. Hopefully u understand what I'm trying to say. I know it may come off redundant at times.
Spoiler:
I don't think anyone is "offended"...nor is there an issue with just liking japanese music
I think it was your generalizing what I may say are "properties" of english/western music and saying that is why u dislike it. And then generalizing Japanese music as the opposite when honestly it is the same
But that's basically what I got. Maybe some lyrics and etc of japanese artists like ayu for example appeal more to you, but I honestly wouldn't diss western music as if there are no sincere artists, who write their own lyrics, and compose their own songs. And write lyrics that aren't just about sex.
Even in the mainstream.
So I think it was that u just seemed like another person stereotyping western music as oversexualized fake artists, etc.
U not liking western artists is fine. Speaking of them that way, to me isn't, because an artists composing a song, isn't "opinion"
The things u said, u could switch the situation and I would say the same thing
Is all. So u liking the lyrics of japanese artists and liking the music more and finding more emotion from them is cool. Its natural, baby, to like what u like. U found music u love which is a beautiful thing. But when u went on to say things about english music, that was different. If u don't like any of their lyrics or songs, nothing wrong with that. What probably made u seem close-minded was your close-minded views of english music.
Its like if I said
I like pop music since I love how the artists have beautfiull meaningful lyrics. And I'm touched by them. And the artists are just so much better
I hate rock music cuz its just a bunch of fakers who can't play guitar well and sing about sex and scream all the time.
(Lol its hard coming up with rock generalizations especially when I love it so much XD)
When u said something like "Can u please write your own song?" Well tell that to japanese artists too. Things like that are where u probably seemed to come off as very disagreeable with some people.
At least to me, that's what I saw. Its just like "huh?"
Its mainly I think just an issue with your sort of compare and contrast. But its gone now with your first post
I think people like emiko were just trying to enlighten u on those matters.
So don't take it as everyone being offended u don't like english music.
None of us know if u go into everything with a psychological bias. U might not even know. But if u can't find english music u like then oh well. Its all good.
