without knowing you, i bet the music you are listening to (with some exceptions of course), is contemporary popular. but try to find this tag on last.fm ... and despite the fact that it's that simple and true, most of you try to label their music with a bunch of so-called genre and style pigeonholes, some of them pure media- and industry-induced zero-meaning concepts, or, helplessly, 'icelandic', 'female vocalist' etc... i know that our musical education sucked. but nevertheless, you believe, if you call a kind of music 'chillout' or 'new age' or 'world' or 'emo' or even 'alternative', 'electronic', 'ambient, 'experimental', 'gothic', 'black metal' and 'japanese', it is. no, it is not. the music is nothing but music. every genius musician knows.

and now for my point. most of you call the music i'm listening to "Contemporary Classical". isn't this an über-label for a broad spectrum of music which is mostly not classical and often not even contemporary ... why pigeonhole the very different eras, epochs, genres, styles and forms of art music of the whole last 1,000 years just as one thing ... called "classical"? if that makes sense, using the term "contemporary popular" is only a logical conclusion for a very diversified range of musical genres. for most people, their favorite music only exists since a couple of years or decades, why do we consider it so important that we need to argue about it so much? music is our life, not our death. stay awesome.

This has to be one of the stupidest statements made on last.fm. Jesus Christ, the ego required to write ["this is the most played music on last.fm, interestingly the least used tag. it's more hip to tag "alternative", "avant-garde" and all these self-deceiving and meaningless labels."] followed by ["some people don't get it."]. I mean christ, this guy has the most inflated ego I have ever come across.

we're in elitist mode. the rules are:

don't apply if you don't have any black metal in your charts
(bumzur is not enough).
don't apply if you have only black metal in your charts.
don't apply if you have bands I don't like in your charts.
don't apply if you have less than 5k scrobbles.
don't apply if you don't scrobble or do it very rarely.
don't apply again after I've rejected you or you will be banned.
all of this is just about charts and being elitist and being ironic
