Whats with all the rock music?

[Pbassred]

It seems like every time I click on a bike video I get a wall of rock music.  Insipid, no-royaly music at that.  That or similarly insipid hip hop. why does anyone think it makes their video more entertaining?

Cliches are a thing.

It's to do with YouTube copyright infringement policy. You can get strikes against your account if you use music belonging to someone else.

so most just use some from the YouTube playlist.

I know exactly what you mean . This is particularly true of the world of Harley Davidson where even the most mundane technical video has to be heralded by a nerve jangling barrage of " New Metal " accompanied by the obligatory flames and skulls graphic . Not my cup of tea .

So what music do you suggest? 

 

A bit of Celine Dion? Justin Bieber?

Well since you ask I've been fixated on this oddly named Stones out take for months now  . Still a work in progress so don't worry about the lyrics . Love the piano playing by Ian Stewart and the wonderful Charlie Watts seemingly doing nothing much but actually giving it such a great swing . So frustrating that there's a fade-out just as the thing was really getting going . Every time I listen I hear something different .
