Music reviews from regnyouth. Not just cotton candy for the mind.

As you listen to the radio, do you ever think to yourself, &amp;quot;Self, when will the next commercial air? Because this song really sucks.&amp;quot; Based on the number of iPods I see here in Austin, growth of satellite radio, and podcasting too, radio listenership is probably disappearing, similar to viewership declines for network TV and readership slumps for newspapers.

Actually, listeners/viewers/readers aren't disappearing from these media, but instead have transitioned to more-user controlled formats both online and offline. Can you imagine choosing your music because it came from a specific record-label? Or going to &amp;quot;concerts&amp;quot; like those from Tom Hanks movie, That Thing You Do?

No way.

Back to my earlier question. While driving to work, I heard a song from Ciara called &amp;quot;Goodies.&amp;quot; Really great lyrics like:


My Goodies, My Goodies, My Goodies
Not my goodies!

and . . .


Lookin for the goodies
Keep on lookin' cuz they stay in the jar
Oh-oh Oh-oh Oh-oh Oh-oh

plus the ever-popular . . .


Uh...Yeah...Uh...Yeah Uh Uh Uh

This sort of music doesn't even qualify as cotton candy for the mind. The only good part was that the singing sound a little (only a little) like Tenacious D's &amp;quot;Inward Singing.&amp;quot;

So to help free you from further mind-numbing music, we've chosen regnyouth as today's Feed of the Day. This music reviewing machine only started this blog earlier this year, but must spend hours and hours and hours reviewing songs, albums, bands . . . and recommending stuff to try out. The amount of content on the site after two months is HUGE. If you're a music aficionado and especially want to check out bands typically off the mainstream radar, give regnyouth a shot.
