Sting says today’s rock music blows

British rock star Sting said contemporary rock music is so stagnant that he prefers to sing 16th-century English ballads.The former teacher who shot to fame as lead singer, bassist and composer in the 1970s and ’80s for The Police told German newspaper Die Zeit that he prefers singing songs of Elizabethan lutenist and composer John Dowland to the rock music of today.

I whole heartedly agree.  I can’t think of more than 4 or 5 songs from the past 10 years that was worth listening to.  Most of it is insipid crap.   Every song I listen to, it seems that they just use a random generic love song generator application to write all the lyrics.  None of the songs tell an actual story, you can probably mix and match the words from various songs to make new songs.

You know those Kay Jewellers commercials? The tagline is: "Every Kiss Begins with Kay." So, once again: If every kiss begins with a diamond or other bauble from Kay, then you're either dating, or married to, a whore.
