No. It's more "Female Aphrodisiac Smooth Rock".

If you can make the foreplay and subsequent ****ing last up until this you'll hear moans like you've never heard before.



(P.S. This comes about 30 minutes into the album so if needed you might have to think about baseball every now and then)

"some of the best stuff ever" doesn't equal "lame" of course.

Anyway, being interesting, resonant and crafty with respect to musical features--melody, harmony, counterpoint, rhythm, phrasing, timbres, arrangements, etc.--are the sole things that determine whether music is good or bad in the first place.

Huh. I disagree. What determines if a song is good is purely the ear.

Sure. They're pretty durn cool. But the Scorpions are way too polished and squeaky clean. They have a close approximation to testicles.

In your case it does.

No, liking something determines whether it's good or bad, and there is an infinite variety of criteria for why one person may or may not like something.

I think it is a rhetorical question.

Why would it be difficult to figure out that I'm talking about why I like something? You might like music based on the band's hairstyles or whatever. But that's why I like what I do.
