Before music became all commercial, it was about selling the song, not the artist, and it wasn't about the money, it was about the music. They made pop songs simple so that people would get the tune stuck in their head and remember the song. It also made it easier to pick it out on a piano and have a little hoe down! So maybe that part of pop (and probably only that) has stayed true, and that is why you are constantly singing "to the left, to the left" (a song which I like, by the way!)

You nailed it on the head, well except I like Paris Hilton. Perhaps people just need to give these people a break and let them live their lives. It's difficult when everything they do is in the public eye. I have to agree that Lethbride radio stations suck and well, Aqua is amazing. Vibe is the best station in Calgary, and they should bring it to Lethbridge, because they are really doing Lethbridge an injustice without it here. I have to disagree that young girls aspire to be people like Britney, etc. I listen to Britney and Paris, but I in no way, shape, or form aspire to be any of them. Sometimes people just listen to the music because of how it sounds, not like the singer looks like. I think it's wrong to assume that people that listen to that type of music will only turn to those musicians in their search for role models. YES!

I wouldn't even have thought that they knew who they were or had heard them before! But they do and they know all the words, it is so cute to watch them sing it. It also brings back memories of high school when they came out and these kids probably weren't even born! I will admit I still listen to some pop music too, and calgary radio stations provide a wider variety of music to listen to between the stations I am pretty much garunteed to find a song that I can listen to and sign too which I do very well driving in my car alone!
