i have secretly loved the jonas brothers since i heard they covered two busted tracks. they clearly model themselves on them, so i adore them. i have now just bought their single. should i, as an 18 year-old girl who writes for two legitimate alternative music sites, be ashamed?

I didn't understand one word of this

I like the Jonas Brothers, too >.>

But uh, well, I'm not a music writer and I'm notorious for having bad taste in music.

Well, you could spin it like, say, an older music writer liking the Monkees, right?

absolutely

Is there such thing as a legitimate alternative music site? It's 2008, right?

@kirsty!: hahaha! Oh, I don't really care. I've never found a source of music criticism that I don't regularly disagree with, and I like you, so whatevzzz. Anyway, that is one of my more favorite tracks on the album, but I haven't really listened to that band too much since around when I drunk IMed you about them that one time. I saw them play here a little bit after that, and they put on a good enough show, but goddamn could I not stand the audience they attracted! (I don't dislike them because of that or anything, they just have a bad mental connotation)

What are you listening to these days?
