@@BaronEvola123 Simon Cowell basically took advantage of peoples dreams to become ' Pop stars ' who were never going to be ' pop stars ' on the back of that made Cowell very very rich..
@@DavidA-ps1qr An even better way of saying it is that he's a big beautiful supertanned older guy who is dressed like a record producer from Texas in a light blue suit and striped off-yellow and grey tie and bright yellow socks that looks like a significantly more attractive version of Orson Bean and sounds oddly a lot like Cliff Richard.
Diddy David is a legend ,looks and sounds wonderful and agree with most of what he says, he came from an era of optimism and his audience were happy and content with their lives in an age of new and exciting music.Can recommend his Boom Radio Show as well as the other presenters, playing music that is not heard from the mainstream playlist.
@@jean-pascalheynemand3271 I reckon now because barely anyone has real originality or soulful,strong song writing skills they just have to please the record label and sell out.If they don’t they most likely won’t grow big.Additionally, considering the shitty “artists” like Ed Sheehan or storm zy etc… who have used RU-vid as a platform to promote their music hence independent artists can’t get big cos ppl are being brainwashed into liking that mainstream 💩
I was lucky enough to have been a teenager during the time when the Beatles first hit the scene, and have been privileged to have lived through some of the greatest times for Rock and Pop music, and in my time have seen some of the greatest bands, but I feel now that the music really has died, it lost its way sometime in the 1990s. So I have to go back to the old stuff if I really want to hear good, classic Rock/Pop.
I discovered this BOOM radio station about two weeks ago. I am middle aged and I really love this radio station. Plenty songs with soul inside. This radio is all opposite of modern rotten, egoistic society. Plenty love and appreciation for the whole team of this radio station 🧡❤️💛
That’s right David Hamilton was an announcer at Thames Television 68-80 when he did his evening slot after he finished his morning shows on Radio 1 and 2.
Music in general is bland no variety sound's alot the same. The old music is far better it needs something like the punk rock movement to rebell against the boring establishment.
Basically pre 2005 it was all rock and really good catchy melodies /anthems etc fast forward to Now its literally just Somebody speaking at you really fast about banging chicks or stuffing drugs up your nostrils.... or killing some grass or being in a gang.. on and on it goes. Bring back some metallica or something 👍👍
Two suicides took place in the early 90's. 1. Nothing but Grunge was peddled in rock music. 2. Nothing but Gangster Rap was peddled. Both are nihilistic.
Listen to Boom quite often, just like I used to listen to Fabulous 208 on my battery driven 'tranny' (that's a transistor radio t5o those too young to know), then we had the 'pirates' like Radio Caroline and finally the BBC started Radio 1. Great times for music.
What a legend.... Agree that the " wordsmithery" and skill of writing songs has diminished. The general tone of Society is depressed compared with the 50s, 60s 70s and Early 80s .
It strikes me that so many modern pop songs are based around beats and rhythms rather than melodies. Probably explains why they're so forgettable. A tune goes a long way.
Lyric writing especially has suffered in the production of popular music in recent years. Illiterate, banal often unintelligible, what is being written lately is merely a reflection of the degrading of a product that bears witness to a departure of creative talent of any lasting quality..
I'm reasonably open to all new genres, although the musical evolution of many of my peers stopped with Abba. I must say, though, that there was an optimistic nuance in 70's music which lifted the spirits. A lot of this is to do with what stage of life you are living through at a particular time. Nostalgia is comforting because we already know the outcomes.
2:30 *I visited Cologne Germany in the early 60's from the UK on my Triumph 350cc Motorbike and on the campsite after a few Feldschlößchen Lagers, was having a chat with other similar aged (early 20's) Germans, and one asked have you been to Köln before, I said no but my Dad did, "How did he like it?" - I don't know he just dropped his bombs and said let's get the Hell out of here - They all rolled over laughing !* 🤣
I recall David saying 36 years ago on radio two, that the song "I'm not dreaming of a white Christmas" by Gilbert O Sullivan was very very underestimated, i totally agree and it never gets a play anywhere especially in theses times
May be depressing as a whole but I recommend you listen to BTS, the lyrics are meaningful, the dance is fabulous and the rhythm of the music&singing is so uplifting, plus with 7 talented artists they provide happiness for teenagers&adults alike with their ability to perform many genres of music. You're probably like me whereby before I listened I thought they were a typical 'love you' boy band but no they're better than that.
Some indie an folk are good, KAYs there is alot of talented musicians in the metal genre....but not played so the general punter doesn't knw about arch enemy etc....
