I personally tend to make a distinction between “stuff I like” and “stuff that’s good”. The former refers to my own tastes and what I personally find enjoyable, while the latter tends to refer to its actual quality.
 
For example, this is an example of a picture that’s good, but I just don’t like it very much for my own personal reasons.
 
On the other hand, this picture definitely isn’t the best (highest quality) on this site, but I love the hell out of it anyway.

It’s not just generation gaps, but it also geographical different too that I didn’t know about her.
 
Yeah that’s true quite that “music good” or rather “good art” is subjective. Although for music there common traits that make music popular (for a lot of people think it’s as a “good music) like catchiness, the key and others (it’s kinda have to do with melodies, style and others) but If I go further I might bored you and everyone else here explaining music theory. Althought sure it also have to do with hard work, creativity and love for the medium and anyway who have passion and talents can make a “good music”.
 
And the last it’s okay don’t worry

“Good music” is subjective. Has nothing to do with melody or style. I believe good music can come from any one, but I also think that traits of good music are hard work, creativity and love for the medium. My Youtube playlist of favorite music is an absolute mess of genres and variations of expertise because of that.
 
I used Paris Hilton as an example (You might not have heard of her. See: generation gap) because she is an easy example of an… “artist” who never did anything for their fame and success. No effort. No creativity. No thinking or planning. And especially no love for the experimentation and emotional strength of music. I believe that, no matter how much attention she gets she will never be an artist in my eyes. Or make “good art”. So maybe I can’t see how individuals would ever like her but I also can’t blame the collective for making something “popular”, because I can see how popularity does not equal quality.
 
I’m sorry if that was confusing. I was trying to not step on any one’s toes whilst saying that. (Aside from Paris Hilton fans, of which there are not many in our herd I believe)

As a music producer and composer. I am not sure what you mean by “good music” is it less repeating melodies? Ensemble in instruments? Catchy chord or rather just I like this music style more than other.
 
But I see your point here, there are music producer in the fandom that almost equally talented, based on the mixing they do, Music effect and instrument they use, even as using the same software. Yet one have over 1 million subscriber other have only 20+k. And it’s very very unlikely the other music producer to get even 1/10 subscriber to other one.
 
So yeah the things that already popular are unlikely to be overshadowed by new things. Also I never heard Paris Hilton, let alone interesting to Paris Hilton’s music.

Earn that duck, bro.
 
I wonder how many times we’ve already had this conversation on this image. I would wager it’s a whole lot of them.

Not likely. On derpibooru, people care more about porn than artistic visions.

I agree. Lots of my favorite images are OC-only drawings that unfortunately don’t get a lot of votes/attention just because they’re OCs. (Yes, the current #1 image on the site is an OC, but that’s definitely an outlier; there are only 4 (5 if you count the “oc:anon” tag) images with OCs in the top 100 images on this site as of writing this.)

I mean…why are people getting so upset? It’s not like enjoying this image is bad, besides, I don’t think it’s customary to only look at the top images. I for one spend many a hour looking through all the new artwork. But please, take my opinion with a grain of salt.
 
But seriously, can we all agree this is pretty cute.
fanmar

Compare to music. There are tons of bands out there with real talents and good music but never manage to get more then a small cult following despite their music quality.
 
Meanwhile everybody knows Paris Hilton is absolutely terrible at everything she does. But her DJ ‘shows’ still get sold out and she will always be 10 times more ‘popular’ then those bands we talked about earlier. The quality of something does not dictate how famous it gets. Just look at American television in general.
 
Also pretty sure activity for this site dropped quite a bit after every season. So the top images are unlikely to ever change in this situation.
 
Hope that clears it up for all you “OMG HOW IS THIS STILL TOP SCORE OMG” people.
 
Edit: I’m NOT directly comparing this image to Paris Hilton. Just the situation. Just wanted to clarify that.

Because I personally like this picture too much to unsubscribe so I’m willing to tolerate the pointless voting argument that pops on these images every four months or so.
