At this point in history there’s been a billion songs from female singers about relationships. Nearly every song revolves around that topic.
Where are the songs like:
Blue Öyster Cult - Don’t Fear The Reaper
The Charlie Daniels Band - The Devil Went Down to Georgia
Even great songs like Rhiannon by Fleetwood Mac though about a witch is still about a witch & unrequited love.
One reason why I like Trip Hop is because there’s some great female voices but the lyrics aren’t always themed towards relationships. I suspect though that many of those songs are written by the guys in the band.
Everything I have stated above about female singers applies to female comedians too. They primarily joke about relationship stuff. There are no female Mitch Hedbergs joking about silly shit.
I just want to hear Shakira or Jewel or Norah Jones sing a song about mudwrestling Satan in a dive bar in 1970s Louisiana. Ladies, where is your imagination?
Nightwish
Amaranthe
Visions of Atlantis
Babymetal
Liliac
And those are just off the top of my head.
Jinjer as well.
Oooh yeah that’s the good stuff.
I have heard of them, but never listened to them… Yet.
“Today I killed, he was just a boy 8 before him, I knew them all”
I really love nightwish.
Babymetal’s very good. You’d think an idol metal group would never work, they feel like both opposites in their genres, but they work it out very well.
Are the females in those bands writing the songs or are the guys writing the songs?
What a strange and sexist thing to ask lol
Who’s writing the love songs?
It’s probably a mix but then you have Jewel or Taylor Swift who write their own lyrics.
Your says nothing about gatekeeping the lyricists, only the lyrics. Does it matter who writes?
My point was about creativity and coming up with ideas for songs. Women seemed geared towards relationships and never want to come up with off the wall wacky nonsense.
This says more about your interpretation of the world than the actual world. Congratulations, you’re incorrect. Now you have the opportunity to fix that.
Yeah my dude QueenB you’re working with a pretty narrow view of women that to me is past bordering on misogyny.
Is this article misogynistic?
Why Women Have Stronger Immune Systems than Men
Pointing out differences between men and women is not sexist or misogynistic.
