@moonwatcher Opera is a form of theater with the vocalist playing the acting role by singing. Not understanding Italian, German or any other language is not a valid excuse to avoid opera. How many out there know every word to many classic rock songs that have been heard a thousand times over? Over time you pick up nuances/words of different languages and there are plenty of liner notes with opera recordings. Lastly the most important aspect of opera is singing at the highest level a human being can achieve. My apologies to the OP for going off topic but the ill-conceived comment demanded a reply.
Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time
I seriously can’t think of anything worse. I grew up listening to country music in the late 80s and early 90s, and a lot of that was pretty bad. But this new stuff, yikes.
Who sees some pretty boy on a stage with a badly exaggerated generic southern accent and a 600 dollar denim jacket shoehorning the words “ice cold beer” into every third line of a song and says “Ooh I like this, this music is for me!”
I would literally rather listen to anything else.Seriously, there’s nothing I can think of, at least not in my lifetime or the hundred or so years of recorded music I own, that seems worse.

Classic one up trollmanship….. Nice going!! And I agree with the original poster (OP). Todays country by male singers all sounds alike. I can’t tell them apart by their music. And it’s awful with very few redeeming qualities. When I listen to country music, I listen to Classic Country, exclusively.
