Okay, whats with the whole "emo" thing?!


Question: Okay, whats with the whole "emo" thing!?
Emo means emotional, right!? Well, human emotion has been the driving force of all art since the beginning of the beginning, so why are people thinking that adding emotion to music is something new!? Doesn't make sense to me!.Www@Enter-QA@Com


Answers:
I really liked how you desribed this!.
and thats true!.

I mean, some music that talks about cutting and how
their life is so messed up, my automatic thought it "eeeemo"
but I don't think there's neccessay an "Emo" band but I think
its the lyrics, that make people think that a band is "Emo"Www@Enter-QA@Com

yes, I agree with you as I am an artist in many ways!. (drawing, writing, guitar playing) But when these teens refer to something as "EMO" it usually has more emotion, and it is usually negative emotion!. Like!.!. have you heard of the band Hawthorne Heights!? Well, they scream in certain parts of their songs and the lyrics to "Ohio is For Lovers" go like this !.!. "So cut my wrist and bite my arms!.!.!" A teenager may refer to this as emo because it is negative and violent emotion!.
also, "emo" is used in which the way people dress and behave!. If a person is dressed in all black most teens would call them "emo," rather than gothic!.
The behavior of an "emo" child maybe be the habit of cutting themselves, usually on the wrist!. Obviously the child has problems handling emotions and resorts to cutting, thus he is emotional also known as "emo"!.

hope this helps
-good luck : )Www@Enter-QA@Com

Well, technically, yes, it's short for emotional!. But now it's evolved into something else!. I'm not judging, but people seem to think "emos" are overly emotional and overly dramatic!. They are labelled as people who like to inflict physical pain on themselves for pleasure!.
Emo music is not bad in my opinion, some songs are quite pleasant, a bit too soft for my liking, but not as terrible as people make them out to be!. I can understand why hardcore metal-heads don't like them, but it's all the implications that people don't like, in my opinion!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

emo in my town is a way to describe the counter culture kids as in the guys with the skinny jeans and eye liner who always complain about the man and main stream music!. To me the term just seems like a way for these guys to say the are non-conformist because they aren't an average group and same with the artists!. They try to seperate themselves by saying they are different!. I really don't see much different in quote "emo" music then a bunch of bands that don't claim to be emo!.

Let the thumbs down of my oppinion commence!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I have no problem with people expressing originality!.!.!.But I think their whole suicidal "my life sucks I hate everyone" additude is just unacceptable!. If you think about poor people in various African countires (I lived/grew up partly/born in South Africa, visit country yearly) that have nothing but, what, in many cases nothing but a few old cardboard boxes to shelter their heads, you just think "those 'emo' people don't know how lucky they are to have a home and shelter!! (most likely)"

That's what bothers me most about 'emos'!

AND after they hurt/in worse cases kill themselves, they leave everybody who cared about them devastated! I heard about some emo girl once that hung herself and her mom had to be put in a straightjacket because she wanted to hurt herself afterwards!Www@Enter-QA@Com

No,that just makes everyone "emo"!. Kidding!.

Good point!.
There's plenty of musicians who have an emotional connection to the music!. They don't need to say that this song is emotional!. That take some of the emotion out of it when you have to point out that it's supposed to be!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

emo is dead!emotional hardcore "emo music" was mid 90s!.bands like texas is the reason!.braid,grade,sunny day real estate,the promise ring etc!. basically it was the wimps in the hardcore scene that were always crying!. Emo kids back then would still beat the **** out of these lamos with girls pants and eyeliner who consider themselves EMO!they need to check their rootsWww@Enter-QA@Com

I guess because a lot of the people who listen to the music are over dramatic or something, so the music gets hit for it too!.

I've never had a problem with the music, in fact i listen to a lot of it myself, but a lot of the fans are annoying!.

I'm going to use the lyrics from one of my favorite songs for this:
"Adolph f*cking Hitler
With this swoopy emo-boy dreamy haircut
Dangling in our faces
Making us all indescribably indistinguishable from
Each other
Or maybe I'm just another megalomaniac!.!."Www@Enter-QA@Com

Thats because all "emos" are like 13 years old!.
Their idiots with raging hormones!
They also want to piss off their parents because they feel "misunderstood"!.
They'll learn by themselves, people who call themselves emos are just wasting their time!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

To emos emotion is: crying, self-pity, being miserable, cutting (in body) and having stupid hair!. To me, emotion is not just that!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I don't have any problem with that music!. I guess, more of the way of dress, pinpoints emo-ology for a lot of people!. I don't care!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

ok emo to me is a style not a lable
its not who someone is
its the clothing choise
skinny jeans bad tees
heavy eyelinner
ect!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
