While daydreaming during a classical music recital, I wondered why is it that pop music is…well so popular, while classical music seems to not be as much. It dawned on me, probably 90% of the reason is because that is what the advertising and marketing giants decided to…well market. Of course it helps that kids like to feel like they are rebeling against their parents and therefore naturally gravitate towards louder music that doesn’t please their parents. But, I think if tomorrow the advertising and marketing giants decided to start advertising and marketing classical music, like they do pop music (i.e. TV, radio, product placements, movies, internet, etc…) it would be just as popular.

After realizing this, I’m going to have to rethink what I really like…or maybe it’s to late for me…save yourselves!!!
