...All genres sound alike if you listen long and close enough. Similarities come and go and every genre has fads. Listen to pop or what they call top forty radio today and 99% all sing using the same style of vocal inflection now. Listen for four hours straight and you're going to hear similarities in the songs as well. ...




Well, classical , jazz music, too -- A lot of insight here in this post. I have no reason to defend commercial music -- it is what it is. But there are still great songs being written in every genre (Marinda Lambert's House that Built Me is a good example -- I wish I had I had written that one!!).

If "House that Built Me" is formulaic -- I want that recipe!
