Yeah it's amazing how readily the AOL using hordes devour the crap served up to 'em just because MTV or fuckin' Access Hollywood tells 'em too. Has anyone else noticed the overabundance of covers making supposedly 'innovative' new artists famous (see Alicia Keys, Orgy, Alien Ant Farm etc...). Where the Hell is the originality??? Seems to me people are just too lazy to expend the effort and seek out something truly different and interesting... Whatever happened to thinking for one's self, hmmm?? I have to walk past MTV every afternoon on the way to work... The little brainwashed tykes obediently huddled behind the police barriers, just waiting to catch a glimpse of Carson whatsisname and whichever boyband of the moment happen to be appearing on TRL, truly make me ill.
