how NOT to make me want to hear your band

so I get these ads, or msgs, or whatever saying "if you like ____(artist)____, then you'll LOVE ________. they sound so much like them!" (or some message-ish equivalent thereof).

well . . .

the reason I like these people to begin with, is that some of them ARE ACTUALLY MY FRIENDS or I like their music. and I don't want to hear someone who sounds like them. go be yourself - that's much more interesting.

yeah, it's kind of like perfume to me, "if you like Eternity, then you'll love 'forever yours' or some such fragrance". I'm with you, I don't want another fragrance, I want Eternity! It's my all time favorite and no one can match it. That's why it's so popular. Why try to copy someone else? Oh well ~~
