OP is some autist who wears a fedora and listens to In The Wee Small Hours on repeat.
Ayden King
I suppose you can say I share this trait with the fedora wielding autist that have studied the blade; however I have no such connection with that lifestyle. I do consider myself to be an autist though. The Wee Small Hours isn't that great.

This time, though it really seemed as if we'd escaped fate. Only a year ago, the white rock fan who dismissed what was judiciously referred to as "the soul sounds"--as if only a stylistic preference, not a race or a culture, was involved--had some credible arguments. We know the wheezing pop of the early '50s was cured by that shot of rhythm-and-blues because R&B was realistic instead of sentimental, idiosyncratic instead of mass-produced, free of show biz nonsense, and rooted in a genuine community.
Carson Walker
So are you saying this type of music isn't genuine compared to the music that came after it cause I tend to think this has a better lyrical description to convey how people felt about the virtues they sang about in their songs.
Asher Perry
I think his point was it didn't have a real grassroots origin, wasn't part of a "scene" and was generated by the entertainment industry from the top down. Kind of like Billie Eilish. :^)
Lincoln Harris
Well that's almost all of pop throughout history, but I think the artist weren't just shills like they are now and actually understood the quality of what they were singing about in the 30s - 60s. A lot of it probably had to do with the war.
Ayden Jones
I think Adele would be closer to a modern version of Doris Day or Dinah Shore.

I do have an appreciation for wish fulfillment female jazz singers.
Jack Roberts
Adele tries just a little too hard to sound black.
Eli Sanders
Hey it's not my fault the meaning of the word "love" is oversaturated garbage now
James Howard
Too much feelings.
Andrew Carter
A time of class.

Rolling in the Deep is probably the most generic-sounding "soul" song I've ever heard. The playing and production are nice and all, but Adele is the equivalent of eating boiled noodles with no seasoning--she doesn't put any unique spin on anything and her voice has no real character of its own. It's not a successful example of emulating black music styles like the Rolling Stones or something who had a totally unique sound and couldn't be mistaken for anything else.

To a certain extent this is true and it's notable that whenever boomer-aged artists like Barry Manilow or Linda Ronstadt tried doing this music, their execution fell short and they missed a lot of the context and nuance of it.

Singing and production I mean.

Rock histories usually refer to Doris Day, Patti Page, and Eddie Fisher as the Unholy Trinity of everything that was wrong with music when Rock Around The Clock broke.
Angel Cook
They always need a boogeyman. In the 50s it was Patti Page, in the 70s it was ELP, in the 80s it was hair metal, in the 90s it was Backstreet Boys.
Kayden Long
I thought the 90s-2000s rock boogeyman was nu metal.
