Agreed.
My ten year old daughter is a keen X-Factor fan and is going (with her mother) to the X-Factor Live nonsense next year.

A message to Simon Cowell - you, sir, are a corrosive influence on the minds of the young people of the United Kingdom. Music should not be battered down to some form of the lowest-common-denominator to be turned into a bland, MOTR, inoffensive ridiculousness. With you at the helm in the 1980s, we'd never have had Frankie Goes to Hollywood, or Erasure and I fear that Eurythmics would also have failed to attract sufficient attention in the form of profits for you and your employers.

In the words of Mr Richard Curtis and Mr Ben Elton "I hope that your mother dies in a freak yachting accident".

Hasn't 'popular' music always been a bit shit?
I seem to remember the 80s being 'Stars on 45' and 'Agadoo'.

As Sid Vicious said...
"I have met the 'man-in-the-street' and he's a cunt".
