There is NO thought behind it at all. Same goes for rap and all the other spinoffs from that stupid genre.
and that is the reason why aging rockers like McCartney, Stones, Elton, Rod Stewart etc can still sell out stadiums, because no one is replacing them,
and why other old stars like Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee, Hollies, Manfred Mann and the old blues guys still tour also....there is a market for them, and as average as they may
be live by their early standards, people feel good paying good money to see real musicians and know they are singing live without lip syncing and auto tune.
