I thought I was just getting old and crabby in a "YOU KIDS GET OFF MY LAWN!" sort of way when it comes to today's music sounding alike and annoying, but there are a surprising number of young people who feel the same so maybe I'm not too far gone.

I hate "sappy" songs and "Torn Between Two Lovers" is the epitome of it. I'm not a metalhead, but yuck, I despise that song!
