like to spam us with (well, everyone that uses the 'latest threads' tab, anyway). Especially boring are the vids that only show an album cover the whole video long.
I can find these vids myself, or type the song name into Spotify and listen anytime I want.
I want to read WHY someone is posting this music video. Did you attend a concert of this band? Was the drummer in your class in school? Was this song special to you growing up, and why? Does this song have one of your all-time favorite guitar solos? Is the drum work amazing? Is it of superlative song quality? Those sorts of things.
I do occasionally post songs, but never in the form of 'here's this song and picture of the album cover'. It'll usually be newer stuff (or at least not a song everyone on DU has heard 100+ times in their lives), or live stuff from the past. I usually talk about what's special about the song and/or artist and/or this particular performance.
Others consistently make this effort too, but some folks can't be arsed. Same as with the 'news' videos.
Sorry ... pet peeve
