Another Quote because Robbie has NAILED it - and not just with big-titted pornstars, either (although that too). Your analysis is perfect Robbie. It breaks my heart actually because what you are decribing is a societal loss as well as an entire Industry (music) being devasted.
The saddest thing is while JimmyCooper here is obviously finding the best in what is out there (Katie Perry, Kenye, etc) he also knows the older stuff or is open to it. This makes him in the top 5% out there so congrats to you JC!!
What breaks MY heart is many today don't even know what they are missing. They don't know they aren't missing out on something, something
important that helped shape a culture, influence soceity in a positive way and, yes, changed the world. Fortunately the music will never die and is still out there for people like JimmyCooper to find and appreciate.
The John Lennon Wall in Prague.
I was reminded when I was in Prague recently how it can be argued that The Beatles defeated Communism. Their music was banned but somehow people kept listening to it, smuggling in records, pirate radio, etc. Once the music was inside the people's heads the change followed, the people could not be stopped. Maybe this will happen again in some wonderful future I am praying for. LOL
