How could you be so heartless?

Today, I listened to The Fray's cover of Kanye West's "Heartless". It made we realize how much better Isaac Slade is than Kanye. Isaac can sing without Auto-Tune. Kanye will always be a better music producer and songwriter than singer.

I've been working on a song that I consider an 80's throwback. No name for it yet, but I am growing more and more fond of synthesizers, having listened more and more to great 80's classics like Talk Talk's "It's My Life" and a-Ha's "Take On Me." Today's hiphop and rap seems to have been more influenced by these styles than rock and alternative have.

I don't really like pop music anymore. I hate "Boom Boom Pow," and "Waking Up In Vegas" seems just stupid to me. How many ways are there to say "I love you," "come back to me," "I don't want you anymore," and "let's have fun/get crunk (if it's even called that anymore)."
