I typed out a long-winded reply but it isn't worth it. You are so far off the mark with your assumptions about me it isn't funny. I love tons of current "pop" acts but because I don't like the one marketed to 12 year old girls I'm automatically someone stuck in a Reagan-era time warp who hates all things current? That is absolute BS.
You barked up the wrong tree with your narrow-minded and insulting assumptions about what I think and like. Yes, maybe I think Madonna, Michael and Prince are the "holy grail" pop artists, but it doesn't mean I could namedrop 20 current pop artists I do like and even love (here goes: Adele, Vampire Weekend, Katy Perry, Scissor Sisters, Robyn, Kelis, Goldfrapp, Mumford And Sons, The Killers, James Blake, Ida Maria, Lykke Li, Ting Tings, The Knife, iamamiwhoami, Foster The People, Royksopp, Hurts... thats 18 just off the top of my head).. but you'll overlook it and dismiss me because I don't like one Radio Disney-oriented kiddie star whose only fans my age are pedophiles. Every day I try discovering new artists... but that's fruitless if I dislike Bieber's music?
