Let Condemning Killer Song Concept Not the Artworks

Triggered by: American Idol and Akademi Fantasia 5

For sure all of us always heard singer produce ‘single’ that contains their killer song for particular album. As I stated here: Kekurangan Konsert?, I’m not a music fan. Maybe that plays a part in my judgment of this killer song concept. But what a hack, who said we can only give opinion for the issue that we love to involve with, right.

I just can’t understand how they classify killer song. Maybe song produced by establish well known writer consider potential to be killer song. After listen to demo tape sent by song writer, recording company decide this sound quality stuff and after pay good price for that artwork they decide it should treat as killer song. How about the rest of the song in that album? If they think remaining numbers from that album not that good, why they still record and produce it at the first place?

Talking about good or bad song, sometimes I confuse when music expert said this person not good, his/her performance looks really bad, his voice not powerful enough. I wonder why they critic someone art performance? He/she sings that song with different note or weird vibrator…So what? That his/her choice. That the way to creates the art of singing from their perspective. Why somebody else should put a limit on someone creative expression? Same like if we see any painting, we can’t say this painter use wrong brush or colors. We can only comment by saying. ‘I don’t like it’ or ‘this is one ugly painting’. We just say what we think about it, unfair for us to say something wrong with the painter technique, right? Because the artist choose to conveys his or her feeling that particular way. I don’t see much different between painting and singing, the objective is to show your art talent and hope majority of the audition will love it. If they don’t, that’s not the artist fault.

I always have a feeling any art form if we stick to it too long we will tender to like it. If you don’t believe me, try listening to one particular song at least 4 or 5 times a day. After one week, you will accept that song is excellent although majority of your friends say it suck. Same apply for my writing, I read it too much and I start to believe it were damn good. Hahahaha… Although many will find it ridiculously, terrible English article by kampong dude. Who cares… right?

My point here, do not ever condemn someone else artwork. The only scenario it might occur is when that person allows you to comment and treat you as his or her educator. Other than that, just kept your month shut and swallows your opinion slowly.
