I think a lot of people would disagree with you on that latter point. Minimalism is very common in music.

Ah then, Mr. Arsetotale, when did you discover that? Go find simplicity in this: http://www.research.ibm.com/people/h/hi...goedel.pdf.

To call a chord progression boring because it's overused is like calling an equation ugly because it doesn't have too much variables, i.e. nonsense. |
Context context context I guess. Like I can only speak for my own experience, but there are times where the simplicity of a song bothers me (say it makes the song seem commonplace or lazily written), but it depends on so many other (largely personal) factors that I can't pair it down to something as simple as "this is a boring chord progression". It depends how I interpret everything else the musician is doing. I don't really disagree with you nor do I disagree with shadow, if that is possible.

I dunno, descending things like that show up a noticeable amount of popular music, not as often as your standard pop progression, but often enough.

You have to be absolutely clueless to think that's rapping. I wouldn't be so smug if I were you.

It's too much of a copy of 80's bowie. The refrain is nice, but they're much better than this.
