Often my taste in music has been criticised. Well I'll say it out now. I like Mika's songs (2 of his songs anyway, love today and grace kelly, haven't heard the rest), my chemical romance and so many others (which if I'm not wrong is mostly pop).
What defines good music? What makes you a music critic? Sheesh.
Good music in my opinion are songs that can express the mood you're feeling right now perfectly. E.g. I think MCR's 'I don't love you' is a pretty good breakup song? If I get it correctly.
Mika's music IMO, makes you feel energetic and wanna do something totally random. What's wrong with that? Just because he sings in a falsetto, he's gay and by extension his music and people who listen to it/like it are gay too?
And what makes you think the music you listen to is good and better?
If anything, good music are songs that you like to hear, simple as that. Now stop turning up ya noses and telling me that the music you listen to is better than the ones i hear.
Hoping that my message is getting across to music snobs,

P.S. Mika's album, Life in Cartoon Motion Chart positions: #1 European Top 100, #1 UK, #1 France, #1 Norway, #2 Belgium, #2 Switzerland, #2 Ireland, #2 Canada, #29 US, #2 UWC, #11 Spain
Which I'm sure is doing wayyyy better than many of the supposed 'better' artistes.
