why rockers are pessimist?

debean75 is probably right... \nWhen people are optimistic or have a kinder attitude, they're put down and made fun of right away, like Hilary Duff for example. No one pays that much attention to her music, it's  just because they look at her clothing from Lizzie McGuire and her explitive-free CD cover, and brush it off, saying she's a goody-good because she's got a lot of happier lyrics.\n\nSome rockers are optimistic, but they all have their bad days once in a while. People like music they can listen to when they're mad or sad, and rock music is like that sometimes.

Gerard Way was very depressed and was unsatisfied with the way his life was going. So, he started MCR. Then he became really depressed on their first tour, I think, and became suicidal. The band saved his life. Then he was battling depression again. The band, once again, saved his life. However, he is no longer suicidal. The band saved his life and it is their purpose to save other people's life.

It is a symptom of mental illness. It is a self soothing act. If a person is unable to soothe themselves in a normal way they resort to this form. It is often a result of a neglected childhood or abuse as a child. Many people who do this, may not be aware of it, or admit to the problems. Many will deny they have problems, becuase they are already insecure. In severe cases, the person will actually get in a fetal position if the rocking does not relieve their inner insecurity.

I was a punk rocker back in high school, which was about 10 years ago.  Back then, we never would look like the pseudo punks today if our lives depended on it.  Somehow, punk has gone corporate.  If I were still punk it would bother me, but I just think that punks should get back to their roots.

Doesn't sound very hopeful...

because people these days are very negative and like to see people down rather than up.

People say it because they are pessimists, and are into trying to scare people.

I used to be, the only positives to being negative, a pessimist, is that you tend to keep things real and you don't get blinded by stupid things or possibilities. There aren't many though, try changing.

Emo souinds like a bunch of whiny-ass pussies.  Please, next time your girlfriend breaks up with you DON'T pull out the guitar and pore your sad little heart out.  Go kick the shit out of something like a real rocker.\n\nEmo kids: pretentious hipster whiny bitches.

I absolutely love most of the bands that played Woodstock. Janis Joplin and Jefferson Airplane being among my favorites. Soundgarden, STP, RHCP, Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, are all good. There were others too that were good. I have to agree with you about Simple Plan, Good Charlotte, Click Five, etc. I don't know where rock is going but it needs to come back. They lack substance and they whine a lot. I don't like that at all. I'm hoping that once again something new will come out that will put those bands to shame much like "grunge" did to hair metal

You've obviously been hurt so often, you find being happy is not worth the effort. You don't HATE being happy, you just find it very hard to be upbeat when life is not being good to you.

People learn what they live.  If they were raised in a loving environment, chances are they will be loving.  If they have been kicked around, told they were worthless, never given a kind or positive word, chances are they feel like they are worthless, and continue to hear the ringing in their heads that they will never amount to anything.  So they tend to be the angry sort.  They are afraid to get close to anyone for fear that they are not good enough, or that the person they get close to will not stick around.  Why should they expect them to, No one else did.
