Rock music is bad. What do you think about this?

There are thousands of types of music world over and every type of music has its own follower. In 1970's I was fond of BoneyM, ABBA etc. In 1960's, it was Beetles that was famous. Whether Pop or Rock or country music, Indian classic music, instrumental, popularity depends on the number of followers it gets and for rock too there are millions of followers. Ultimately it depends the taste one develops and there is nothing wrong for coexistence of all sorts of music, because tastes differ.

I'm going back a couple of years back to when Britney Spears first came out and she was still the wholesome teenage singer. My niece would listen to her music then. The neighbor children were not allowed over to play with her because she listened to "devil music". That floored me. I didn't think anyone felt that way about music. There are some genres of music I do not care for, I'm honest about that but each person has the right to choose their own. When I was growing up people complained about rock and roll and how it would warp the kids. It didn't. They were just looking for something to blame besides the kids themselves.

I love rock music and do not feel it is bad for people. Sure there are some groups that put some awful lyrics into their music but most of the rock groups that I have listened to over the years are good. It is only bad for your ears if someone is playing it too loudly and that goes for all types of music, not just rock music. I think rock music is actually better than some of the rap music that is out now.

Rock is bad ???...hey how can some one say like that...its not hurtful to ears ..to me its everything what music stands for....if you think its bad and it hurts then it will hurt ..but if you take it in the right spirit and start listening it then I am sure your opinion will change.

Hi Ladysurvivor, I cannot see how you can blame music for someone's attitude. Men have always tried to find the reason as to why teenagers act weird and can sometimes be aggressive. They have blamed it on Tv shows, rock music, etc.. There was a time when Elvis' music was said to have a negative influence over teenagers lol:) Teenagers act weird because they struggle to come to term with the change that takes place in their body and their minds. This has nothing to do with music or anything else:)

every kind of music has its own character,rock music is good or not depend on the songs and singers,good songs are good no matter they are rock or classic music,that my opinion

I am not a big fan of rock music, but if others like it, that's OK. Everyone has the right to like what they like. I don't like being interrupted by loud rock music rom my neighbours, and I try not to play my music too loud for them.

i don't think is bad .... it's just out oif reach of the elders .... they just don't understand it :) 1 Have a nice day !

Well I don't think you can necessarily heap all rock music together like that. There's plenty of rock music that has a positive message.

i don think rock is bad....it has its own charm for many people....it is a popular type of music.

I like rock music, its my favorite genre of music. i think htat every type of music can influence young people, thats just how it goes. i think i would rather my children to be influenced by rock stars than paris hilton, and 50 cent! i think its all a matter of what your comfortable with.

muzic is all i live for...i have tried almost all genres of muzic and i found rock to be the most meaningful and soulful

Music is ever-evolving. You can't stop it. Rock is a form of music that is powerful, that's why it is loud. Some folks doesn't understand this. They say that their music way back then was better, i agree, but like i said, music is ever-evolving, we face a different kind of music every 5 or ten years and we can't do anything about it.

When i was a teenager, i like rock music!!!! I was not just like, i've ever been a lead guitarist of my band (but not be an artist yet :D). But now , for me it's all a memory, and i don;t like rock music anymore, and regret for liking it. In my religion, music is not guilty, as long as the lyric is good, the presentation is not over, and the most important thing, the song's lyric content of praise and remembrance of Allah. As we realise or not, music can influence our attitude, manner, habit and so on. So good music may influence good to us and vise versa. :-)

Hi Ladysurvivor: I am a senior citizen, and I still love rock and roll. It is so much better than a lot of music they play today. The Rolling Stones and Rod Stewart are still among my favorites.

Rock music isnt bad...there is no harm in listening to them u can still behave normally

some one like this very much but i don't like it

Slow rock is okay

Bah, I think it's bulls**t! Almost all teenagers get a little "revolted", and it doesn't depend on the music they listen to. Rock is great, and it actually unloads my tension. I love it, it's definitely my favorite musice genre, and I guess I'm a nice girl anyway. :) Some people blame rock artists for crimes committed by their fans, like that classic case of Charles Manson, a serial killer who used to inspire his crimes in Beatles' songs, or even those guys who shot people at school because of Marilyn Manson, a few years ago in the United States. There are lots of cases like that, but I believe these people are totally crazy and would do it anyway, with influences of music or not. Cheers, my friend!

I personally dont have much interest in rock music. I believe that music is a means of relaxation and it should be soothening to ears and mind, it should go along for more time even after hearing, on the contrary the view of older people is also true, the way the rock music people dress and jump on the stage is not a decent act, in the name of involving into music what they really show is nonsense, there are theories and facts on how music acts as therapy to many illness, in that case it should definitely be soothening and not ear alarming. Music should be as pleasant as it is. Taste differs a fast numbers and slow numbers but not as rock music.
