Don't get me wrong I don't mind some songs of today but its overall crap to the worst degree and as for a "trend" its tired now time to move on, if your gonna keep doing it then - music has eventually died and that is OFFICIAL but sorry it ain't charted yet its needs rectified first 
You mentioned professor green - yeah he covered INX's I need you tonight, I kinda liked the remix of "read all about it" with emeli sande but his music overall is terrible!
Freeview overall where I live is crap - got viva and 4Music how interesting, when you try and avoid the crap they advertise on the sister stations its available on freeview too”
The sex thing in the 90's was much more drummed down and again was by artists trying to create an image. Look at Madonna, in reality she's piss weak, but back in her day, she was shocking

Basshunter and Cascada did the same. They were once good dance acts who released some fantastic tunes like Boten Anna and Miracle but then the David Guetta generation came along and they became more uptempo R&B releasing songs like Saturday, Evacuate The Dancefloor and San Francisco 
Jessie J is a talentless moron
So are The Saturdays who should just give up as they are just failures.
Haven't watched the music channels much today but had Clubland on before and there were a few videos I'd never seen before. The Vault also played Voodoo Child by Rogue Traders yesterday, a video which I haven't seen since around 2006. I used to love that song back in the day,”
Work and Bounce are awful songs to me, especially Bounce. Her problem seems to be she can't decide if she should go with an Aussie accent or an American one and her tone of voice is that of a nervous 8 year old child. I am aware of her more risque music too, although I find it kind of embarrassing. It just all appears fake.
Never liked Basshunter. Cascada - I agree that the later music was different to the older. The Evacuate/San Francisco album was much more RnB and is by far the worst album they ever did, despite having 'Dangerous' on it, which is classic Cascada dance, going back to Miracle/Everytime We Touch etc era. Although I like Evacuate/San Francisco, it's nowhere near the classic era.
It's a bit harsh on Jessie. I wouldn't say she was talentless, just not as talented as she's made out to be. Her screeching gets on my nerves and she only originally made it as she was given a Brit helping her single that barely hit the top 20, go to number 2.
Unfortunately The Saturdays are very popular with young girls. Again, they went from cheesy pop to being totally Americanised. When I was flicking channels the other day, they were on Chart Show and the question was "Have you ever used the term, do you know who I am?" 4 of them said "No, how embarrassing" etc. Una, the Irish one, just looked awkward and said nothing.....you can tell she probably has.
Rogue Traders occasionally gets played, but not very often Sometimes Heat have it if they have a dance chart on. Sadly, it's who sang it, or rather, who didn't. Had it been Rihanna, Beyonce etc etc, you'd find the music channels and general public describing it as one of the greatest songs ever.

MTV Dance can be merged with MTV Hits/Music. MTV has lost its courage to play lesser known and curious music.
would anyone expect these tunes on MTV Dance these days?:

back in the 90s this would have been played on MTV Europe, if these tracks werent from 2012.
the only respectable MTV channel these days is MTV Adria. there are lots of clips from MTV Adria's "Chill Out Zone" on youtube. stuff you would never see on any UK channel.”
If they were ever to be played, i'd imagine Clubland would on their chillout zone. Mtv Dance are more interested in Guetta, The Saturdays and Rihanna.
