what's your idea of a "good song"?
I've been having this conflict with myself for a while about what kind of songs would be generally accepted to listen to.
I personally think what makes a good song is how well it speaks to the listener's soul. However, this idea could also be hinged on my love for soul music. So I'm asking for everyone's opinion on this.
What do you think meets the required standard for a good song? And what are those standards if any?

I prefer older music such as 80's and 90's hip hop and r&b because the artist did not hide behind the music. They allowed their lyrics to speak louder than the beat. Today's music the beat is the important aspect of a song and you hardly can hear what the artist is talking about and further more the artist don't be talking about anything meaningful. So for me, I prefer great lyrics that are poetic and deep yet understandable with a sound that will enhance the feel of the words. A good song can be sung A Capella and still make you feel the lyrics or vise versa. All and all a good song makes you feel.
My thoughts exactly. Music today is like all beats but no sound. You can barely hear what makes it Music and funny enough those are the ones that go viral and people love 'em.
