That's probably more than you wanted to know, I'm sorry 😂 I like to listen to certain kinds of music just like anyone but I can listen to anything if it makes me feel something, anything! I would however say that I can find something good about most music, I usually look for what I do like about a song rather than what I don't if that makes sense. Vinyl collections, even my Spotify album, you'll find a shit load of Metal/Rock, much 90s R&B and quite a lot of popular and obscure Reggae mixed in with stuff like Phil Collins/Genesis (remember I'm fairly old 🤣) Madness etc There's a lot of classical in there too (a current favourite is War of the World's by Jeff Wayne which I recently rediscovered after not hearing it since I was young) so my taste is very eclectic, certainly I wouldn't consider it mainstream, not today anyway. If you look through my casette (yes, I still have loads of them, yes, that makes me fairly old 😉) C.D. I wouldn't necessarily say I'm his target audience. Have any of you been Blunt haters in the past and if so, has your opinion changed with time?
Is the general opinion of artists like James Blunt and Nickelback more of a meme that people pile on to rather than a genuinely felt hatred? Blunt experienced a horrible war so I think his words have a lot of merit (outside of the fact that war is generally pointless anyway). I will give more credit to anti anything song when it's written by someone that has personally experienced what they are standing against. there for me but whatever, it's still a really moving song and the performance is heart breaking to me. His anti war song 'No Bravery' moves me in a way that no other war song does, there is a video of Blunt live performing it ( ) that moves me to tears when I try to watch it, there might be a bit of P.T.S.D. I know he got a lot of radio time when he released his first album, familiarity breeds contempt etc but I don't understand why people dislike his music so much, you can hear the emotions in his voice, so few modern singers are capable of conveying emotion in their songs that I think those who do (Beyonce, Adele, James Blunt etc) should be lauded for it rather than scorned.
