What Are You Listening To Now?

Isn't preing (?) just yet another behaviour driven by the cost of things though?

Yes it is, largely.

 

[Brown Nose]

Yep. Eye roll and maybe a little sarcastic comment about it being cringe, which ultimately fuels my inclination to do it again.

The Dad move at this point is to double down by including the word 'slay' into a sentence.

That’s already in use

I get my 11 year old grandaughter with that one, she gives me the look, cracks me up everytime.

Protest Songs.

I have never been into 'protest songs'.
I love music, but it's the song and the performance for me, not what the singer is singing. Lyrics, in general are just words that sometimes rhyme, sometimes funny, sometimes cringeworthy.

I have more affection for pointless lyrics than determined ones - Give me 6000 Crazy by Spizzoil as much as Anarchy In The UK. Smash The State! - Yeah, whatever. What is the noise and attitude of the Drums, bass, and guitars? That IS important. Ooo Ooo Baby I Love You. Yeah, whatever. I don't generally listen to the twaddle the vocalist is singing, It doesn't matter.

Stuff like HMHB are fantastic, I will listen to the vocals on every track but they are an exception.

Protest Songs? Yeah, whatever.

But I did discover this track (below) a few years back and was really impressed. I listened. I took it in. I felt it.

I don't know if anyone here knows of Folk singer Dick Gaughan and a lot of people don't 'get' folk music, but I think this is stunning. A Protest Song?

I saw Dick Gaughan when I was going through a folkie phase, a genuine guy. You've got to have a bit of Billy when protesting...
