«Today’s Lyrics Are Pathetically Bad» Rick Beato
He know better than me. He is a musician and i am not. I dont listen contemporary lyrics anyway, they are not all bad for sure, but what is good enough is few waves in an ocean of bad to worst...
I will never dare to claim it because i am old, not a musician anyway, i listen classical old music and world music and Jazz...
And old very old lyrics from Franco-Flemish school to Léo Ferré and to the genius Bob Dylan Dylan...
Just write what you think about Beato informed opinion...
I like him because he spoke bluntly and is enthusiast musician ...
I actually saw Nena on stage at the Roxy or the Whisky a Go Go, can't remember which. She was great. Thanks for dredging up that memory :) Being into darkwave and from Germany, I am sure you already know and maybe enjoy Bohren und der Club of Gore. A forum member here turned me on to them recently, and I've been listening (almost) nonstop. No lyrics and none necessary, the music is enough. |
@devinplombier Actually Swiss (Basel), living in Santa Barbara, just north of those two clubs. Don't know either of them. Will have a listen. Thanks for the pointers. Just listened to the new Rue Oberkampf, also Hackedepicciotto, Necrø (still waiting for record to arrive) are currently high on my list. And Videotraum from Hamburg. In case you are interested I have a darkwave centered insta account with music reviews of odd acts: @undaobscura |
Re: "Good Morning, Little School Girl" While the Grateful Dead was one of many groups and artists who performed and/or recorded it, the song and lyrics are generally credited to Sonny Boy Williamson. Like most blues songs, however, Sonny probably borrowed and adapted it from someone else who borrowed it from another someone else and so on and so forth. |
