Monday Musings: Random Thoughts Vol. 2

Welcome to another edition of Random Thoughts!

I really wish music videos were still interesting enough for Weird Al to parody.

When David Lee Roth left Van Halen, both David Lee Roth and Van Halen got worse. Conversely, when Slash left Guns N' Roses, only Guns N' Roses got worse.

Rush's Roll the Bones album is both their most pretentious and their silliest.

If you get Beats headphones on a discount, they'll probably break within the year. I'm not sure if that's true with regular Beats as well.

Seriously, whatever happened to Shontelle?

Whenever I listen to indie rock, the thing that really strikes me is how many artists that are supposed to be different sound the same.

The pop charts are so sluggish now that I'm not even sure what or who is supposed to be relevant at this point.

AC/DC gets far too much hate.

Everybody talks about how great the music in The Lion King is, but nobody ever talks about Tarzan.

Creed have the best worst videos of all time.

Meanwhile, OK Go simply have the best music videos.

Listening to Ray Charles' "What'd I Say" alone really opens your eyes to how much influence he had on music, especially putting it into context with the other artists of that era.

Katy Perry's music hasn't been charting well lately. Is her reign coming to an end?

That's it for today! Thanks for reading the random music inquiries of my brain.
