Barb, LOL. I bet when you were growing up listening to music from the 60s and 70s, especially Elvis, your parents were saying "turn that noise off".
I feel the same way that you do about some of the "mindless" modern music. However American Idol caters to teenagers. If they started singing Ella Fitzgerald and Mac The Knife, you'd hear the sound of a million of teenagers sighing in disgust!
