Wow, that was a truely amazing film, it was perfect. Better than the last two combined!

You guys are all missing the point, you're saying it's harder to write rap music because of the lyrics. Well you forgot the minor detail that bands play INSTRUMETNS. You're trying to tell me it's easier to learn guitar than right a crappy rap. But instruments aside I still think their is more to writing rock lyrics than rap, you're soo wrong when you say all they do scream. That's such a sterotype attitude it makes me sick considering you no absolutly nothing about rock. For the music I listen to the lyrics are sung in melodies, and the subject matter isn't death or insanity. It's either

1.Questioning Govenment or Society
2.Anti-War
3.Love
4.Dreams and Nightmares
5.Friendship

And the only song I know that relates to death is one about how life shouldn't be wasted and you should live each day as if it were your last. Now compare that to raps subject matter of drugs, big cars, money, and girls you can see who are the more intelligent musicians.

How about I add some examples:

"So close no matter how far
couldn't be much more from the heart
forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters

never opened myself this way
life is ours, we live it our way
all these words I don't just say
and nothing else matters" -Metallica's Nothing Else Matters

"Heavy rings on fingers wave
Another star denies the grave
See the nowhere crowd, cry the nowhere tears of honor

Like twisted vines that grow
That hide and swallow mansions whole
And dim the light of an already faded prima donna"-Metallica's The Memory Remains

"I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure" - Aerosmith's Dont Wanna Miss A Thing

Now here's an example from Dr. Dre's Forgot About Dre

"One day I was walkin by
Wit a walkmen on
When I caught a guy givin me an awkward eye
And strangled him off in the parkin lot wit his Karl Kani"

Yeah that's real good, inspiring lyrics there

I'm done proving a point for now, but please by all means prove me wrong. PanterA rulz!

When I said rap was shit, I did say "In my opinion", so dont get all pissy at me. Besides I get the same thing and it pisses me off, people say "oh metallica are shit!" when these people know nothing about them and have barely heard them. And the reason I think rap is poo is because I think it just lacks talent. Anyone can do it, it's not vocally challenging, and more importantly the music is all made on computers, where's the talent in that! Rock and metal bands play INSTRUMENTS! They have TALENT! And watching them live is so much more FUN! But yeah that's why I think rap is poo, I dont want to start a war here though.

SLAYER rulz!

By "Star Wars shit" I hope you're talking about Episode 1 and 2 because the originals own! Anyway I'm gonna see it today, some reviews are saying it's the best film of all time, I hope their right.

To be honest I think rap is shit, but RRM's rap pushes the boundry of shit, and makes me want to kill myself, so please don't write anymore. Metal's rap was better, but it's still a rap, and he was taking the piss so it don't matter.

Classical music is sweet, but heavy metal is better. MetallicA rulz!
