Can you hear me now?

Oh Manda, darling, you know lack of a comment space will not deter me from stating my opinion, especially when it comes to music. You have much to learn, grasshopper.
You knew it would come.

First I will agree with you, to an extent.
Music can be dance. Funky beats and crazy lyrics. Music, in my opinion, is simply whatever you want it to be. There are different types because there are different people. We don't need to bash those [artists or fans] who like different types than we do.

And I shall now state the rest of my opinion. An opinion that doesn't entire agree with your's, though realizes that we are both entitled to them.
There are the BeeGees and there are the Beatles. Which one made more of a mark on history? Setting personal preferences aside, they were both great artists, but the one with the better lyrics and more personal songs made it bigger, whereas the dance beats fell aside.
That, my friend, is what I think music is. Personal. I'm not saying it's some deep, brooding, depressing hole of anguish, suffering, pain, and unworthy annoyances, no; it's personal. It's real.
Music is, should be, one's outlook on life. Whether it be from personal situations, the way you view something or just your personal opinion on something, [take P!nk's Dear Mr. President.] music is real.
A dance remix without any emotion whatsoever is simply sound.
Not that I'm saying there's anything the least bit wrong with that.
