Or maybe just someone who likes their music light and easy and wrapped up in flashy bows. Or maybe someone whose ears haven't yet matured to the point of searching out deeper fare. Or maybe just a teenybopper.

Those have been around since the 50s and they are as devoted to the music/artists they like as any other genre fan.

The vast majority of people who listen to Justin Beiber are adolescent girls who haven't yet developed their tastes in music, you'd hardly expect them to be Led Zeppelin fangirls.

I dont think this has anything to do with mature ears:

there are people who like the simple happy melodics of bubblegum music: there is a charm to it that may not be my cup of tea, but I can see the attraction. Your average RUSH, Yes, or Porcupine Tree song is going to have too much going on in it to make the magic of listening to simplicity enjoyable.

There is something to be said for simple hooks and catchy melodies that fare like Miley, One Direction, and Bieber deliver....its not my thing but it doesnt make it wrong or less mature

Agreed. Mature was the wrong word.

I love simple hooks and catchy melodies, but generally not in chart music.

The weird thing about that is, when I was a teenager, Led Zeppelin was hugely popular among my fellow teens.

Does that mean they're extra small?

My ear lobes haven't descended. Everything sounds really high.






Or am I just listening to too much Cypress Hill?
