Laziness

My own aside, I've found a lot of what's come out of the Industry just to be complete and utter laziness one the part of the performers and the companies. My prime (and only listed example) is the first video in the playlist. It's a version of "Missing You" with the original artist and Alison Krauss. It's a great song, but an astoundingly mediocre version. It might as well be Karaoke seeing how it sounds like it uses the exact same backing as the original hit did. Frankly, I'm surprised Alison Krauss would do such a thing.

There's more, or course. The recent spate of Beyonce videos from her last album are all cut from the same mold. I know they were all done at the same time over a weekend, but it looks like it was just her, a blue screen and a simple dress and they edited in whatever they like. . .

That being different versions of the same crap.

In response, this YouTube playlist (sorry you Google Groups Folks, for to go to the site) includes some things from bands that actually try to do something different, fun and ungodly exciting.
