Nauseating songs.

So there’s all these shitty love songs that are coming out. You smile I smile- gag. I love you just the way you are- gfy. All these bull shit love songs, gimme a fucking break. Then I hear a song from the 90’s, that Dawson’s Creek song, and I love it and still remember all the words. When I actually think about the lyrics, they make me want to throw up.

So why is it that I tolerate all the older songs, but none of the ones today? Hmmm maybe it’s because the ones coming out today are sung by prepubescent boys who aren’t allowed to date, as opposed the Backstreet Boys, N’SYNC, and 98˚. Maybe it’s because I was 10 years old, and young, gullible, naïve, and romantic and just plain wanted to believe in the songs.

Whereas now I’m 20. The world has hardened me. I have been crushed time after time by the heavy blow of reality in that I do not fit the cookie cutter girls that guys my age are into. Woo is me.  But for real. I know im being melodramatic but really in that moment, to every girl, all that matters in the world is that guy’s opinion. And I know it’s shitty. I get it. Relax. I’m maturing every day. But we do fall victim to narcissism sometimes and consequently to judgement by Vygotsky’s audience.

So the moral of the story is that I’m not buying today’s music because

A.      1. I am bitter.

B.      2. It’s just not entertaining.

C.      3.The lyrics are in no way clever.

D.      4. The artists are too young to be taken seriously.
