A lot of the mainstream music has no true meaning to it, most of the songs that are written was written soully for the purpose to sell music. UprootedDreamerThis
but if you ask most people the general opinion of her, it will most likely be pretty unfavorable.[QUOTE="Reed_Bowie"][QUOTE="GreySeal9"]
Actually, if anything, Madonna became more respected over time.
Back then, people were saying that she would dissapear, now she is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and gets on best of all time lists.
In short, your example is not a good one.

Where exactly do you get that statistic from?
I think it depends on who you ask. If you ask at a gaming forum like this, then yeah.
And then you have to consider that alot of people hate her personality and all her antics, which is understandable. But even some of her detractors have to begrudgingly admit the impact she had on her genre.
Also, she's the fourth best selling artists of all time behind The Beatles, Elvis and Michael Jackson. You have to pretty popular to achieve that.
Did you know that "The Backstreet Boys" have the 8th best selling album of all time? I mean look where these guys are today. No where. Look me in the eyes (fictionally), and tell me these guys weren't just another corporate tool to make money. And it worked. Popularity has nothing to do with musical talent. That is why I don't listen to most mainstream music.I bet in 30 years people will realize that her style was laughable and her music was un-original, just like they did with Madonna.[QUOTE="Reed_Bowie"][QUOTE="leviathan91"]
When people think mainstream, they automatically picture crappy artists such as Ke$ha or Justin Bieber. It's just a cycle in which I bet that 30 years later, people will worship Lady Gaga as they do with Led Zeppelin. Yes I said it, go flame me all you want, you know it's true.
