Good music, bad music.

Tastes of music is always such a controversial or competitive topic of conversation. I don't know why, but it just is. Everyone always wants their type of music to be the most liked, and hence why people always say such things like
"My music is the best!"
"Your music is crap!"
"This is real music"
"Why would you listen to that?!"

Another extremely odd attitude towards this topic is that, when someone puts down our preferred music, we always seem to be so defensive about it. It's as though the music is some kind of god, and if you offend it, then you must guard it with your life, or the music WILL DIE. Wait maybe not to that extent, but you get my point.

There is so much music in the world today, that it's crazy! The range in music is so diverse! From classical  music to techno pop, with synthesisers, and old instruments transformed to suit todays life. Much like the guitar! ( FYI : I play the guitar ) The guitar is a relatively old instrument which originated way back as a classical guitar, now the guitar has evolved into an Acoustic guitar, and an Electric guitar! So going back to the point of why people argue so much over music is because everyone has such different tastes due to the huge range of music available. But yet people don't seem to understand that fact, and continue to argue and defend.

Society confuses me sometimes..
