Never heard of a marker who would give full marks to an incomplete essay. Impossible.

This is awesome and kind of on topic. http://furia.com/misc/genremaps/engenremap.html

Too true actually.

Right I always forget.

Aye aye I'm perfectly calm. Kpop for me goes only as far as a few songs. Just because I type a few sentences more during a perfectly normal discussion it means I am mad/butthurt?

While that is true, it is very derivative, I must disagree with that being the main cause. It's highly unlikely a star from overseas comes in and sweeps the Australian (or American for that matter) mainstream with a song sang in a different language to English (does that even happen). Our...

Does that matter? I can imagine if kpop was sang in a language used outside the asian continent it would still be seen as that "foreign music scene", and have the same popularity.

That's what I was getting at with the last sentence. 'And very often that is not the main objective of the song.'. Yes, nowadays it's all about how catchy the song is. Hence the, "oh man wait for the drop wait for the drop!111!!1!1".

Of course. But before it was mostly looked down upon purely because it's foreign music, sang in a foreign language. Now PSY has just given people more excuses to hate on Kpop.

My bad, I was kind of relating to and building upon what I wrote 2 sentences earlier (B"ut most of the time I can't stand it - it doesn't have any powerful lyrics, too often nothing really stands out, and I don't feel any emotion behind it. "). All songs have some meaning behind them to an...

There are reasonably good songs in kpop but people really look down upon it because of Psy. I agree with you, but at the same time I don't. From what I have said earlier it may seem like I hate electronic music, but that's not the case. I like things from every genre. If there is something...

True, but that doesn't oppose what I stated.

It's almost like he's saying that except it's not what he's saying.

For those people who have answered no (or actually, everyone here): tell us what music you listen to so we can make a better judgement.

Eh I wouldn't use that as an example. That and Gangnam Style are the only 2 songs from K-pop that are actually known. People judge k-pop based on those 2 songs, and they don't define what kpop is like in any way. There is a lot more to it - like I said every genre has something to offer...

Damn. But Daft Punk doesn't count. Like, Daft Punk can be considered old school house. I'm mainly talking about the very modern/mainstream stuff. So all that progressive house or whatever it is. Every genre has something to offer, of course, but I just don't understand its popularity.

Yes especially since all this EDM stuff has taken over. Kinda sad actually.

Oh right. Iron Man 3. Pretty shit movie but decent entertainment. Just like its predecessors.

A Knight's Tale Part of our Comparative Study for Advanced. What can I say. This is just pure genius. Amazing combination of inspiration, comedy, pure awesomeness. I loved it.

Dunno why and how, but I'm also doing more than I did last year.
