Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums. Christy, take off your robe. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Banks, Collins and Rutherford. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. Sabrina, remove your dress. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism. Sabrina, why don't you, uh, dance a little. Take the lyrics to Land of Confusion. In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock. Christy, get down on your knees so Sabrina can see your asshole. Phil Collins' solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like In the Air Tonight and Against All Odds. Sabrina, don't just stare at it, eat it. But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. This is Sussudio, a great, great song, a personal favorite.

You know the term "conspiracy theory" was coined by the CIA to discredit anyone who questioned the official JFK narrative, make of that what you will.

[HCZ_Reborn]

You know the term "conspiracy theory" was coined by the CIA to discredit anyone who questioned the official JFK narrative, make of that what you will.

I’m afraid not, that in itself is another conspiracy theory as there is evidence of its use as early as the 19th century

The problem with conspiracy theories isn’t so much that conspiracies don’t exist, they of course do. The problem is the alacrity with which those who believe conspiracies often show the same amount of credulousness that they attribute to others and often there is a need for conspiracies to be interlinked.

The CIA is a clandestine organisation therefore it’s going to be at the forefront of conspiracy. And of course it has conducted numerous black ops both at home and abroad including both not limited to influencing coups in countries like Guatemala, Chile, Greece, Iran etc.

The Kennedy conspiracies never really hold up to examination. Most of Oliver Stones film for example ranges from distortion and supposition to outright fiction.

Whether he was a CIA operative I can’t say, but it’s been proved pretty conclusively that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone gunman responsible for Kennedy’s death.

You should care about what's true. :shrug:


There's bullshit on all sides the world is done, I just want to live a peaceful life and enjoy my time on this rock with no interference.
Well, you can't. Because you live in a society.
I mean, you should be able to do the first part, but not the latter.
If you want to go live on some desert island and be completely self-sufficient then you get to do what you want.
Here. Go nuts: https://metro.co.uk/2023/11/05/you-can-buy-an-island-for-the-less-than-the-price-of-a-london-flat-19776507/

As soon as you live in a society then there's a societal contract which means you can't just do whatever you like.
Thankfully we don't, contrary to your more hysterical opinions, live in an overly oppressive regime.

Yes yes, Covid restrictions, blah, blah. Those were extraordinary restrictions designed to deal with an extraordinary situation. You can call bullshit on the restrictions and most of us did at the time. Some made sense, some were utter nonsense. But they weren't some attempt to oppress and control us by an authoritarian state. I mean, if they were true then why did they keep changing as the situation did? Why are they now all removed?

Most of the time they do pretty much leave us alone to get on with things. Sure, we have to follow laws - any society has to have a set of rules in order to work. And in a large society there's no way for all those rules to be agreed by everyone so some structure of government is necessary. And we have to pay taxes but in return we get roads and infrastructure. So, y'know, overall I don't think it's that bad a deal. My life is peaceful, there's no overbearing interference. I suspect yours is much the same, the only difference is your perception of it, vague paranoia and worry about what "they" are up to. Mostly what they're up to is being a bit incompetent and self-serving. They're not out to control or oppress you.

[HCZ_Reborn]

If it’s just a case that you’re trolling people fine, but maybe be a bit honest about it


Objective truth does matter it really does, everyone is entitled to an opinion but if there is no factual basis for those opinions then it just creates a world of solipsism where reality is whatever you choose it to be. Which is fine if you’re a fictional character like the Joker but in the real world where people are social creatures it just creates unnecessary division.

I'll try it. Hope you are on the level.

New Lainey Wilson song. She's awesome, not heard a bad song from her yet!

Didn't Dolly Parton already do all this shit? How many time do we need to hear it? Face it, it's bollocks. Just go to the original source. Contrary to popular belief, music is not about personal taste. There's actual music and the all the other bullshit that hangs on. Most people are too ignorant to understand music, so they mistake the BS for the real deal. Listening to this all I can hear os one cliche followed by the next. It's pseudo-music by numbers. Awful.

Please, go and listen to Dolly and then you'll get the proper stuff.

BTW, don't like C&W, mostly. There are a few tracks that transcend. I suppose.

Lol at "too ignorant to understand music"

If it sounds good, its good. That's all there is to it.

Shania Twain :bow:

Dua Lipa would get it tbh

Avril Lavigne is also on the line up :bow:

Shania Twain is alright.
And I like Coldplay. I know one is not supposed to admit that, but I do. So there.
Saw them at The Emirates once.
The others...couldn't name a single song.

It's a fairly decent blatant rip of Alanis Morissette, isn't it?

Come on dude, so much quality out there. No need to hide in the basement. So, Holst - the Planets. beginners ground for all comers.

Gustav Hoist’s Jupiter was appropriated to make the patriotic lip trembler “I vow to thee my country” which was played at my mother’s funeral

My daughter is studying music and she's teaching me. It's an amazing subject, easily as expansive as any science and just as fundamental to the human experience. And we don't know as much about it as we think. I also listen to music, but that's entirely different.

I only understand music on a very aesthetic level. I lack the ability to read music let alone the ability to create my own.


Art and Music are the earliest forms of human endeavour in terms of creative expression.

[WMUG]

You don't need to be able to read music to create your own, that's its own specific skill which is probably more useful for playing somebody else's music.

For creating your own stuff you probably need to know the basics of how chords and keys work though.

Well you’ve just proved my point by demonstrating that I don’t even know that :haha:

Fuck, she gives me music sheets that look like an alien language, let alone a foreign one. And then she belts it out on the piano. But I can tell the difference between a performance and a play-through. When a performance is happening then biological reactions start happening in your body. There's a science to this, except it's a million miles from my comprehension and I might just go back to college to study it. Because it could be something that actually makes people on two banks of a very wide river think, you know what...?

The Mongolians. Did you know they created musical patterns and forms (can't recall the technical terms) that were never imitated or replicated elsewhere, in all of human history? Fucking Mongolians, right? Well, they have much to teach us. And when you hear that shit, your blood froths up. Actually sounds like the finished item compared to what the modern day rap artists are miserably failing at. All done before. And done better.

Did you know how exciting Parisian opera is? Neither did I. Yeah, the music is great, but the history behind it is extremely informative. I have a lot of, "So that's why...", moments listening to the lectures. Kinda getting a free education, well I say "free". But the bills arrive. Nothing like watching a child get educated by people who give a fuck about education. It's a wonderful thing. Could be right, could be wrong, but it makes you think and if you can do that then you have won the race.

Anyway, it's fascinating.

WRONG!

ISH.

You need to understand music to make meaningful music. Music is not just a bunch of sound rammed together, like modern "art".

Fine - everyone is entitled to enjoy what they enjoy, no problem there. ENTERTAINMENT is in the eye of the beholder.

But music is a very refined art form. Millenia in the making. People who ram sounds together and say it is music are entitled to their opinion. But actual music has a deep expertise behind it.

Maybe it's the terminology that is confusing. "Music" is an art and a science. The top 100 chart is filled with noise that people often call music. It's like art. I can shit on a canvas and claim anything at all. And plenty of people will call it art. But then there's actual art. It's not up to the self-entitled to define the significance of the centuries of endeavour made by discipline and creative people.

Honestly you should

It’s ten minutes of humorous misanthropy
