The more I think about it..
The more I am convinced that I'm some sort of hippie reincarnated into the present world..or I'm simply born in the wrong age & time..
Why else do I seem to be plunging backwards into time while everyone is diving forwards?
Especially so when it comes to the greatest love of my life, music.
When at the age of 12,instead of being hooked to Michael Jackson's Dangerous album,I went backwards to his 80s hits,then to his 70s hits then all the way to the songs he sang when he was just 5?
Even those days,my elder cousins used to be amazed...yes I enjoyed the current music scene but I was so enchanted by the simple yet mind blowing emotions of the musicians in the 70s & 80s.
Fast forward to current day.
I can safely say there is not one single music genre I HATE..there is something about every single thing that appeals to me somehow..of course top of the list is always my beloved rock music..
Now as I sit here,my morning chores already complete...I find myself listening to...THE BEATLES!!
wtf.
I never was a fan,and I can still safely tell you I'm not much of a fan now..I mean c'mon!!These are bands our parents rocked out to!!Yet there's something about certain songs that warm my heart and of course the essence & free spirit of rock music was really widespread during the younger days of our parents..I doubt kids 30 years from now would actually find much inspiration from the music that's offered right now,during our time.Yeah they sound good for a couple of months then even WE get sick and tired and move on to other songs..hahaha such is the value of music & musicians these days.
All about the image..mediocre talent..does anyone really feel strongly about something that could change the world,or are they just writing songs about trying to cope & keep up with the pressure of not having enough fashionable clothes in their already bursting wardrobes blah blah?
Hahaha I wonder.
Honestly.I am thankful that I was born in 1980 and not anytime AFTER 1989..
I can see why hip hop and RnB are popular these days..coz at least there is something good & deep in most of the musicians..the current rock scene..I have absolutely nothing to say.If you can seriously consider bands like MCR,Fallout Boy and what nots as ROCK...holy shit..that is some really soft rock I tell ya.
Boy bands disguised as rockers hahaha..with their pretty boy looks & angel eyes,carefully permed/rebonded but styled to look careless hair styles..never said a swear word,never broke a girl's heart,never burped in their lives....
Oh please.
Gimme a bad ass,mean,messy haired,sweaty,heartbreaker anytime darling.
One that can REALLY play a guitar & not just dabble with gizmos.
Sigh...
I wish I was born somewhere else.
I know at least one soul who agrees with me...right Twinny?
