Most of them do.

Things that haven't changed since the 90's, there is still isn't a non-awkward way to say you like the band Garbage.

Nope. Pavement, Britpop, Smashing Pumpkins, and being from the SE, Archers of Loaf and that whole scene.

I could never fucking figure out who was buying this shit, because I was in HS at the time this came out and it this record was basically labled Poseur shit(because 90's) almost immediately and was just about the least cool thing you could be caught listening too. I mean, even the Hootie and Bush fans were willing to

SoPaSoDetroit.

White Americans, aged 46-74 who make over 100K per year and work in a large office.

Let me preface this by saying that I am aware that I sometimes take music too seriously and this is something I'm trying to work on, BUT, the first time I heard this song I was driving in my car and it made me so angry that I had to pull over into a parking lot.

So what I'm getting out of the last 2 days worth of comments is that a)most of you didn't read or understand the question, and that b)most of the ones who did don't understand the "judge a work of art by the intent of the artist not what you think the work of art should be" thing.

I'm with you on most Woody Allen. I've never enjoyed it, but I am mostly able to understand the appeal, but the one that I just do. not. get. is Midnight in Paris. All the main characters family/fiancee were all one-dimensional caricatures with zero good qualities and the main characters is a one-dimensional

I've always felt like an issue with Mozart is that most of the time the people performing it have to put so much effort into just playing the damn notes that they either forget or can't focus enough on the emotion of the stuff.

I'm sure that happens, but while "consider your audience" is great for business presentations, commercials, and college essays, I don't think it's a great thing for art to consider.

The Cure.

My dad saw Beefheart open for someone(I think King Crimson?) in the 70's and his description was "They came out and played six different songs at the same time, got booed off the stage after about 5 minutes, thanked the audience for reacting appropriately, and then left the stage."

Radiohead isn't sad, they're angry.

I think there are a lot of valid criticisms re The Last Unicorn, but I'm having a hard time understanding how you found a movie with a giant red bull that herds unicorns, everything about the witch but especially the Harpy, a giant tree that tries to smother a wizard with its huge boobs, and an alcoholic skull with

The anti-Doors backlash has been running strong since the Oliver Stone movie came out. It's a more controversial stance to be "Pro-Doors" these days.

Artists have zero obligation to connect with an audience.

Pretty sure the premise is "something to get the comment section arguing to increase page views." This isn't the first time this subject has been broached. Don't know if it was this feature or not, but I have definitely seen all these moronic arguments before.
