I might have. If I have, it will contain proper music not a screaming Diva.

Re: Beyonce reveals all - music and life

People our age are not meant to enjoy this sort of "music". Yes, we like and respect Abba, which is also pop-dance, but they came out with some supremely classy pop songs. Production and songwriting at its finest.

Beyonce is music for pre-teens, teens and women who care nothing about lyrics but just want to dance. The same people who like Bon Jovi because they think Jon is sexy. They care nothing about any sort of message the band may have in the words to their songs (not that I personally like th band that much anyway). That's the state of radio.

What really does gripe me is that Beyonce is part of a genre which is termed "R'n'B". Now forgive me, but doesn't that stand for "Rhythm and Blues"? Okay I grant you it has rhythm and a beat, but where's the blues in that sh!te?
R'n'B was The Yardbirds, early Who and Stones, Ray Charles. Not some headstrong drama queen out of touch with reality.

And please don't get me started on Rihanna. What she "sings" in her monotone drone are not even proper words.

Both I reckon, Gumbud.
An observation which does appear to have some clout to it.
How many men do you seen at a Beyonce concert as opposed to women?
On the other hand, how many women like Pink Floyd? Not many I'd say as it's "intelligent" music for people who acknowledge musicianship.

She got booty, and she knows it.

And $355M in the bank.

Funny old world.
