    In my opinion, modern music needs some one like John Lydon. It's all too safe and pandering to get sales. Can't speak for all teens, but it's funny when you show them the music that was in the charts, in the 70's or the 80's, like the Sex Pistols or Bowie or Siouxie and they respond with, "You like this" or "People bought this"?

      You do realize that the Sex Pistols were a manufactured boy band, right? Just because they were punks, swearing, saying bad things, doesn't change that fact. They were created for the express purpose of fame and fortune, and it worked. The internet has been a game-changer. Kids don't have their music spoon-fed to them anymore.
