There's a difference between notoriety and popularity. Most people I know are aware of Britney's existance, but hate her music.
Being known =/= being successful.
Starrynite
Yes
This is quite a distinct debate, as it seems that there is much disdain towards the Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus. Until people open their eyes and ears and see the new crave, I think it will be hard to prove my point.

Whenever I open my ears to that thing's grunts, I throw up a little and die inside.
Starrynite
Yes
See eggactly as I said previously, people like aleerock157, nickthepunk, and fhqwhgads make it difficult to move this in a positive direction and possibly get you rethinking and reevaluating a possible chance to at least listen or preview one of her songs again.

Oh I listen to that stuff all the time, it plays on the horrid hit channel we're forced to listen to at work.

I have heard almost every song she has made. In the weight cage at my school they play that CD a lot and I am always in there lifting weights. So I have heard her music. I respect the fact that you enjoy her music but you need to see that YOU enjoy her music not everyone does. I know a lot of people also like her music but just because they do it doesn't mean I have to. I bet you haven't even heard of half the bands I like but if I like them and a lot of other people do so you should like them. See that's basically like what you're saying.

Yeah, I dont have a problem with that, as long as those bands are popular then they demand to be listened to and should at least be liked by all. I see nothing wrong with that statement.
So basically it will be hard to prove your point until we already agree with your point? Does anyone else see a problem with that? :lolStarrynite said:
My god, are you truly so totally and completely devoid of any individuality?Starrynite said:

What do you mean by "devoid of any individuality," I think listening to Hannah Montana and enjoying it, is plenty enough of speaking of my individuality.
You listen to her because she is popular. You have stated specifically that you would stop listening to her if she were no longer popular. You have stated that popularity commands us to listen to an artist. The fact that you do only what is popular means that you are not an individual, but a reflection of the masses, in that nothing you do is decided by you. It is decided by public opinion.Starrynite said:
Starrynite
Yes
But I dont understand how that would rule out individuality, if that were the case as that original statement then nothing I do is actually what I would like to do but what others have commanded to be done. Based on that, that would mean that I would only listen to the most popular artists, someone that everyone in this discussion would like (or at least should be commanded and demanded to like, ie, Hannah Montana), but that is not the case. Thus the original statement "devoid of any individuality" is not based on fact and is a wrong conclusion to make.
The other day while I was visiting Mai at work, that song by Leona Lewis was on the radio. I said I disliked it, and that it makes me dislike it even more because everyone just can't shut up about how fantastic they think she is.
Starrynite, you are a follower and a corporate pawn. Your arguments are contradictory, and you yourself have said you only listen to what is popular. HOPEFULLY I will be able to resist commenting further on this thread.

Yes, I do hope you continue to resist commenting with useless information, flawed ideas, and virulent chatter about nothing ness.
IF someone's reason for disliking a song is because everyone else sings it but they, then woe be to that person for having such a baseless idea of what they like and dont like. Thats like saying that you dont like to eat because everyone else eats daily to survive!

She never stated that she hated a song because others sing it. She stated that she hated the song even more so because people like people are decide to keep on discussing on a topic that should have never been started in the first place, kinda like this one.
AHHH!!!! *bashes head against the wall*Starrynite said:
You have stated repeatedly that you do the same thing. You like a song because everyone sings it. You essentially just said that you have a baseless of idea of what you like and don't like.
Okay, you did just contradict yourself. You have repeatedly said that Hannah Montana is the most popular artist in existence(which is why we are "commanded to" listen to her), and now you are stating that she is not popular? You have to choose one or the other. Either she is popular or she isn't. Which one do you think?Starrynite said:
Do you know how arrogant you sound there?Starrynite said:
Starrynite
Yes
For too long Hannah Montana and me have been bashed in this thread it was time to strike back.
Regardless, the meaning was that Hannah Montana is perhaps one of the greatest artists in the music of today, thus we are commanded to listen to her. No where in that statement did it say that we had to worry about whether or not people are singing her song in public or too much or it being the result of them disliking her. She is popular thus we must listen to her, not because people sing her songs in public, but because she is ultimately skilled. What really is so hard and contradictory about my statements. I see, and most others would agree, nothing is wrong with this statement.
