Is this what's considered music these days?


Some 18 year old mumbling into a microphone. I'm glad I grew up when real artists performed real music.

While I’m not a big fan of popular music I think she has some good songs.

reply

Well good for you!!
Just kidding.

This kind of indie sound has always existed. Why there's a mainstream push behind it is beyond me.

reply

yup. the LESS you can do, the bigger the hit. I like a couple of her songs, but yeah, overall, still the same old LAZY song making. two notes, barely enunciate words, hit record pushed by company

They even had the nerve to compare her to Avril Lavigne at one point...

I don't listen to artists like Katie Perry or Taylor Swift.Can't stand Biebers.But i can understand their musics appeal to younger audiences.I just don't get Eilish.Your right she just mumbles into a microphone while music plays over it.

I saw her in concert in 2019. It was a festival and I was there to see another band, but I must say she did out in a good show. The crowd was hyped and there was lots of smoke in the air. 👍

I understand that critique, particularly with mumble rappers, but not with Eilish. She has a fantastic voice and some of her songs are really good (e.g. When the party's over). If I had to critique her, it would be on her lack of fashion sense. She usually goes on stage dressed like a hobo.

reply

Yeah When the Party’s Over is very good. So is Everything I Wanted.
