I Am Bored With Music

Music blues I seem to have
Everything sounds the same. 
I turn on the radio and
It just gives me pain.

Voices screaming identical
Kinds of beats
Pop songs blaring
All over the streets.

The average age now
has settled at thirteen
I can't understand
It's like a bad dream. 

I long for the days 
Of the gals with the soul
Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan 
Their words made me whole. 

Can we bring back some tunes
And singers with clout?
To write about real life
Sigh, I just doubt.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 5/23/2011 8:56:00 PM I wonder what you would have thought of Grass Roots, Creedance Clearwater, Three Dog Night or the Platters, just to name a few. I think there are more rock styles and groups than we could ever possibly name! This was fun to read. Congrats on your win. Login to Reply

Carolyn Devonshire Date: 5/12/2011 9:27:00 AM Some of the music today bores me as well, Kristen, although there are some great newer artists out there like Alan Jackson and Jason Mraz.
