As has been said already, modern pop isn't my thing at all, so I'm automatically going to dislike those "musicians". As a musician who's had to sit through a Bieber song because it played as work, the kid pisses me off. The main vocal melody had an obnoxious "I don't know now to sing at all" level of autotune on it that any self-respecting singer would be ashamed of. I can understand saving time on rerecording with some pitch correction, especially on harmony lines, but the main melody should not be that hard to sing, especially in generic, only-appeals-to-teens pop music.

There are a number of ways, though my favourite is simply to take them by surprise. They're just walking down the street, minding their own business when suddenly, WHACK! Penis to the face.

Autotune abuse... ugh... Remember when to be a singer you actually had to be able to sing?
Though IMO, Autotune can be a great effect if used wisely.  Just like delay, echo, reverb, octave dividing...    Yeah, you can tell I'm into prog.

My problem with Bieber is the market failure he symbolises. He isn't a very good singer, but is paid well to do it. Why?

Umm, who is this 'Bieber' I hear about? Is someone trying to remake "Leave it to Beaver" for the modern age, and the name is just a misspelling? Is this "Bieber Fever" a new virus spreading across the world? I know not of this "Bieber" you speak of, so I'll go back to listening to the melodies of Tarja.

The worse thing about Twilight are the movies with Kristen "I have the same facial expression for everything" Stewart.

The sad thing is, she IS capable of making facial expressions.

The people hiring her just don't want her to make them.

Most people in Twilight, especially the leads, are like that because Stephanie Meyer is a hack. That's how she wants these characters to act.

The guys at MST3K, Rifftrax & Cinematic Titanic would call that "Dull Surprise".  ::)

QUESTION: About that stupid 50 Shades Of Grey silliness. Forgive me for being an idiot but how is this a Twilight fanfic? I've read neither but what does a 3rd-rate ripoff of The Story of O involving an executive & his female employee have to do with teenagers, sparkly vampires & hunky Indigenous American werewolves?

All I can guess is that the main characters are Ed & Bella expys with different names & working in an office. The magical monster stuff removed & the BDSM stuff added. Other than that, I don't get it.

Not quite, it was originally a fanfic of Bella and Edward having rather graphic BDSM sex, but for obvious reasons they changed the characters and setting a bit (most notably making the female lead not be a school kid) for the commercial release.

I could probably tolerate it a lot more if it were aimed at Skrillex instead. At least what Beiber shits out are actual songs rather than what I can only describe as white noise. Not to mention, Skrillex's fans are people who for the most part should really know better.

Ah, so my guess was right!

Girls want to fuck him. Or it's an example of what the lowest common denominator can achieve, therefore giving hope to people who want to be rich and famous performers, but lack the skills to do so.

That last one may be more of a subconscious thing.
