You too can be a musician as long as you believe you are one.

That has to be the mantra for the man who goes by The Guy Who Sings Songs About Cities & Towns on Amazon.

Because I'm not sure The Guy Who Sings Songs About Cities & Towns is actually a musician.

I mean, sure, the guy has a CD called Illinois IL Song Fun Yeah you can buy for the low, low price of $17.98 but just because you release an album with something most of us would vaguely describe as "music" doesn't qualify you as a musician.

There is only one review of Illinois IL Song Fun Yeah:

Really? every song sounds like the same and they all sound like they are written by a 2nd grader. I have nothing against a guy trying to make a buck, put more effort in it, this is crap.

Ouch. However, there is a song called Rockford Is A Good Nice City. It's about as you would expect after reading the review of the full album but at the same time, how many songs in existence are specifically about Rockford?

In case you're keeping score at home, there's also a song about Freeport and Belvidere, and yep, just as bad.

I'm still trying to decide if it's a "good bad" or "bad bad." You decide.
