this kid just told me that the ataris are not pop punk because they don't sing about punk issues and that i'm ruining music for everyone else. he also thinks enrique iglesias is totally emo.
Delvec721: sorry for breathing. if i never sleep: what? Delvec721: ms. emo queen if i never sleep: what?
Yea I IMed this guy about my music as well and he asked me if Enrique was emo too. That was a very confusing conversation which I only benefitted from a little because I was so lost the whole time.
But in the end, he told me that emo can't be emo unless the singer is screaming, because that's what the first emo band(s) were like.
He said that if there is a band that writes emotional lyrics, but doesn't scream. Is simply indie. So I asked him if FATA would be emo to him, but he said no. I asked him if he thought the Cure was emo (even though they do not scream) he said no. I asked him if he thought Bright Eyes was emo, he said "fuuuuuck no."
Does anyone agree or disagree with this? I may make a new post about it...
