Beiber and Cyrus I'm guessing. Thankfully, I will never hear this.  Good for kiddies, not for me.

Growing up, I never understood why parents would want to shelter their kids.

Now I do.

Darkes7, you need to get you head out of your ass. Not all prog is the same and neither is pop music.

I know, I've read it all. In each genre there are well crafted songs not all prog is good and not all pop is bad. But it's funny seeing him stick to his guns.

Without stepping too far into this whole thing....

There's good pop music out there. That, however, is NOT it.

Yes, there is. And it's written by Devin Townsend. It's called Addicted.
I felt its length in quite a few places.

Also, isn't Cyrus only like 16? What's she doing being half naked on stage and shit? I feel like I'm doing something illegal when I see pictures of her like this on the internet.

Pop music isn't crap.  There's good pop music and there's crap pop music. 
Justin Beiber and Myley Cyrus = crap pop music
Lady Gaga = good pop music

Also, Gaga writes her own music.  Myley and Justin do not.  And they can't even sing that well.  Gaga can, and so can many other pop artists that don't get HALF the notereity that those two poser artists get.  Ke$ha is another example of a decent pop artist, she's not nearly as good as Gaga but at least she writes her own music as far as I know. 
I don’t know what to put here anymore
