I feel you on this, so no worries! I understand how you feel about the "happy songs don't make me happy", especially when more often than not they come off as more annoying and as ear worms than anything else. But a well-done song can also be as powerful as any other, in any genre.

It's fine to listen to the sad songs, and it's fine that you can relate. Personally, I just think there are so many out there it's a little over-the-top. I see more and more producers jumping on the train to down town and it's like, are they legitimately upset? Or are they just trying to grab some quick views.

I guess it's starting to seem more like a gimmick to me than anything else. So long as they sound good, that's fine, but it's also the importance of the message.

And trust me when I tell you, I know that it's hard to make music. I've owned VOCALOIDs for a couple years and I still haven't found the perfect sound that I want, or the right message I want to convey or how I want to create it, etc., etc. So bear in mind I'm looking at this from the POV as a music maker myself, and trying to understand just what the big deal is//

Aside from that, I get what you mean, and I can understand why you'd be salty about it. But hey, you like what you like, and it's totally cool to be a fan of whatever music you want. :)
