    Uh...

    "But, what's wrong with "Broadway" music? It seems to be fashionable these days to put it down and call it "sentimental" or "inauthentic" but it's a genre of its own - it's not supposed to mimic rock or pop."

    Then it really shouldn't tackle rock or soul or pop history, should it?
