What you listen is determined by who you are as a person.

I always think of Canto-pop as the microwave-meals at 7-11. They are fast (easy to pick up) and hunger-quenching (helps us by letting us vent out our relationship problems) but not good for our health (our musical soul).

The truth is the general public in HK are used to these microwave packages and wouldn't take the time and patience to appreciate the world of music. Excuses are:
- I don't understand the English.
- Rock is too loud.
- Metal is for immature people only.

I look at the discussions here and sometimes get depressed. Surely Joey, Hakin, etc. are important figures of the canto-pop scene. But  we need to long further and realize there is a gold mine out there (i.e, Afrcan drums!).

I hope this forum would get people going beyond the local pop-karaoke singers.

By the way, any Foo Fighter fans here? The new single is out!

Let these people eat 7-11 package meals, for they are too ignorant to try sit down restaurant dinners.

I gave up sharing the good news with friends years ago. They never listen. Just be glad you got the chance to understand music and don't have to eat the 7-11 dinner.
