Haven't you posted this before? Or was it Francis? I understand that this is very much the music of the stars of your time. And I understand that this is good music, like Andrew said. Yet the displayed Born Under A Bad Sign attitude cannot compete with the "I've been down so goddamn long that it looks like up to me" time span that the Doors overlooked. Absolutely timeless in respect of dealing with self-pity is Douglas Adams. Here's a reminder from his So Long, And Thanks For All The Fish:
"And as he drove on, the rain clouds dragged down the sky after him for, though he did not know it, Rob McKenna was a Rain God. All he knew was that his working days were miserable and he had a succession of lousy holidays. All the clouds knew was that they loved him and wanted to be near him, to cherish him and to water him."

Looking up it was half-time. Without the 'music' the Black-eyed Peas and others strutting about on stage looked utterly ludicrous, but still better than with sound! I can get into, say, Beethoven's 9th and a wide range of live performances. I would pay to have the vast majority of so-called music turned-off. I cannot remotely understand why anyone would inflict it on me. Nietzsche, an idiot if ever there was one, was swooned by military processions and bands. Some people are very easily swooned, so selfish they can't understand annoying other people is wrong and unaware reasonable silence is a social demand. Germany is very different to the UK in this respect - even if your kids are noisy there you are expected to take them out so as not to annoy your neighbours. Harder to describe the soul-touching, especially as I doubt some of the annoying prats have one! If you can do pelvic thrusts to it I reckon it ain't music and has no soul.
