Yeah, music is still just as good

[Abbey Marie]

I think not...

[Russ]

That is hilarious!

I also love the way "hoe" is spelled like the gardening tool.
Maybe the song was written by a bitter farmer...

Blast from the past old meme! With predictable response -

Did they ever make 'Hope and Change' into a song ?? Maybe if someone strung about 200 clips of Obama's saying it together, added a beat to it ....

Sour puss! Sorry you didn't get to experience those great bands while they were in their prime.

PS "Disco Tex"? Lol!

I actually liked Disco-Tex and the Sex-O-Lettes. I have that music still today.

No one's entitled to an opinion but you, huh? I think there's a CLEAR line between the former and the latter. There's no music if you can't hear the words, and ther is no meaning if the words don't impart a message. "You a stupid ho'" is hardly bringing anything intelligent into a conversation. Here's a song with some meaning:

Vincent (Starry, Starry Night)
Don McLean

Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colors on the snowy linen land
Now, I understand, what you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
Now, I understand, what you tried to say to me
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left inside
On that starry, starry night

You took your life as lovers often do
But I could have told you, Vincent
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as you

Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frame less heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget

Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
The silver thorn of bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

Now, I think I know what you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity

You can take your "hoe" and get busy in the GF's garden.

[Noir]

No one's entitled to an opinion but you, huh?

Um...when did i say that?

I think there's a CLEAR line between the former and the latter. There's no music if you can't hear the words, and ther is no meaning if the words don't impart a message. "You a stupid ho'" is hardly bringing anything intelligent into a conversation.

How would you compare the lyrics of Led Zeppelin and Florence & the Machine?

[Noir]

Sour puss! Sorry you didn't get to experience those great bands while they were in their prime. PS "Disco Tex"? Lol!

Me sour puss?! And here you were with a 'back in my day x was better' thread xD

I'm sure that kids and young adults of today will be telling their kids when they're older just how awesome and classic the music was of their time. For example, I have a LOT of music associated with the end of high school for me, and the few years afterwards. I'm sure folks of today are also associating the music with their experiences. It's what's on the radio most and what's in the stores most, and of course what tours the most since "our" musicians of our day are dying or dead mostly!

BUT, yes, if they are all alive at the same time, and the folks of today, and the folks of the past, could all equally judge the bands of their time as they're all playing at the same time...

Then today's folks would know just how much better Zeppelin was! And Iron Maiden of the 80's, Pink Floyd, Stones, Aerosmith, Queen, U2, Guns 'n Roses, Motley Crue, Springsteen, AC/DC, Mettalica...

Good list.

Question: Floyd or Zeppelin?

[jimnyc]

Zeppelin, no doubt. Just too many classics, too many sounds.

[Black Diamond]

Am I the only person who appreciates 3?
