Music Lyrics are Dumbed down!

Yes. It appears that he is an amazing talent. I really just found out about him. I watched a few videos and was impressed. What is your opinion of what he does?

I think it’s hard to do. I appreciate the skill involved.

Not many, I don’t follow music much. And I’d rather watch a band perform on TV than see them live. (worked too many concerts)

But I know Cold Play and the Stones released albums in the last five years.

So did Depeche Mode and Ministry. I like music about as much as I like movies. Which is quite a bit.

And the bird is the word.

 

[_Simon_]

In the beginning there was the word.

And the bird is the word.

That was a real RIDE that I feel like I went on!!!

Sharing this with everyone I know

In the beginning there was the word.

Well, once you bring movies into the equation that’s different. And the world is a far better place.

I’ve watched this video at least once a week for five years. I suppose I may tire of it at some point….nah.

And The Bird is most definitely the Word.
Ain’t no two ways about that.

 

[Wing Woo Gar]

In the beginning there was the word.

And the bird is the word.

The Cramps do a great version of this, but I like “I was a teenage werewolf” even more.

 

[drop bear]

Didn't work. But guessing family guy?

 

[Prince_Alarming]

How can you tell me that this is impoverished?

 

[drop bear]

Let's just leave this one out there to compare with.

I think it is weird that we are more likley to understand the context now than when that song was made.
