Pretty much what I figured you meant, it's a well thought out idea, and very well could be spot on, but for me, the songs just aren't as good. Not as catchy, interesting or compelling as in the past.

If you're posting in the music forums make sure to be thoughtful and expressive, if you're posting in the lounge ask yourself "is this something that adds to the conversation?" It's important to remember that a lot of people use each thread. You're probably not as funny or clever as you think, I know I'm not.
