Music

it has just recently re-dawned on me that most of my favorite bands and artists are dead or on the verge of death from old age. sad. is it weird or wrong that i dont listen to the radio at my age? ok thanks i dont give a shit what your opinion on that is actually.

but really-
led zeppelin
the beatles
janis joplin
jimi hendrix
the ramones
black sabbath
the doors
john lee hooker
elvis presley
george thorogood
david bowie
... add your own because i dont feel like typing any more names ha

ya know, those old guys
who are either dead or getting there

i love them, they created such amazing sounds with so little. all the damn recordings of people today have so much technological shite it sounds like something is ripping your mind apart. not cool, i mean yeah some of the effects are all right but its just not music anymore. although i have to give credit to those few individuals who have managed to keep the instruments real and let their own voice be natural. and to the people who have accomplished all this and gotten recording contracts, well i only wish i had any fucking talent like you. damn.

so if you read this and are awed by todays misconception of music ie. britney, katy perry, lady gaga ( btw what the good old fashioned fuck is up with the name) and idk other people from the top 40, well just do me a favor and go listen to some of these MUSICIANS and try to see what i see- instruments and voices blending together to make a friggin harmonious sound.

thanks man
<3 remember all we need is love

  1. Haha. It's true. I really should pay more attention to a lot of old-school music. I only have Past Masters Vol. 2 and Abbey Road for the Beatles.

    AND I REALLY NEED TO GET CRACKIN ON LISTENING TO DAVID BOWIE. Only cause that man is a fucking genius.

    I rarely listen to the radio cause its all Jamie Fox and blame it on the alcohol and shit. I have a pretty decent CD collection to make up for the radio. Haha. But I gotta say I do like Britney and the others. Guilty pleasure man. Haha.
