Why do people....

[Grand-Ranger]

Why do people, after hearing a depressing song or poem say "Stop bitching about it and put up with it" ?

Writing song and poem about depresion IS puting up with it. Even if people dont think so, aperrantly thosep eople have never written a song.

It´s because they´re too lazy or maybe too chicken to deal with facts tha´t don´t concern them at the moment. They don´t want to be confronted with something unpleasant when they´re not forced to. It´s an artist´s life, so stop bitching about it and put up with it.

Maybe you ahve it mixed up? Perhaps people who dont write songs and say quit bitching about it are too assholeish to hear others problems? Or maybe there jealous they dont have the talent to write a song?

I don´t think it´s jealousy. I only try to understand them. Even I don´t agree with all lyrics the guitar player in my band comes up with. Sometimes it just too much. Whining about this, bitching about that and pissing on everybody because they´re different. You understand?

Well if thats the problem then, just enjoy the music its self, dont pay mind to the Lryics, beside they have no effect upon you what so ever

Yeah, but I´m the singer. I can´t simply say "I don´t mind what he wrote there". To prevent any misunderstandings: I´m completely on your side! And btw, who cares about those who don´t like your songs or poems? Ignorance is a common attribute, though not one worth to achieve. Being misunderstood is the fate of the artist.

Well said Debiler.

Not hearing the lyrics is kind of hard even when you like the music.
Your position as a singer is one where the lyrics can't be avoided!
I think you hit the nail on the head earlier when you said "They don´t want to be confronted with something unpleasant when they´re not forced to."

I think writing your feelings into lyrics in songs is a good way to express hw you are feeling. Fine if people dont like it its their problem but they cant complain about how you are doing nothing to help yourself and then say that the songs are depressing. Writing the songs IS helping you define yourself and express yourselves to others. So of course if in the first place you needed to let out these emotions than of course they are going to be depressing otherwise you wouldnt have needed to write the songs in the first place.

Correct! That is what songwriting is all about. BTW, expressing positive feelings in a song mostly sounds kinda...weird.

this society teaches ppl to be strong for themselves. if you have a problem, you are not supposed to whine about it, you are supposed to overcome it and you are supposed to always look forward

but i think some people got too caught up in this popular belief, it is like a brain wash thing. and at the end, those people lose the basic attention and comfort that they should offer to others.

we all need others to survive
