Long Hair Music

[cosmicfolklore]

Never, ever, hand me another straight line like that. I'll get banned, and your dogs will hate you.

At least you were intelligent enough to see it for what it was. The ones that baffle me are the ones that would post something like, "what holes?"

I always loved classical music, literally slapping LP's on a player from when I was 2 years old. My parents thought it was a little weird. I like other kinds of music as well, jazz, rock, folk, etc, but not wholeheartedly. Classical is where it's at for me.

I never understood how something called long hair music makes so many of the listeners, based on the audiences I have scanned at performances, lose their hair.

Oh, and I guess my answer is that I am not particularly fond of Classical music. I mean I like it for what it is, and I respect it, but I don't care anything in the world about listening to it. I find listening to it to be stressful, being forced to listen to it against my will makes it even more so. Damned doctors offices. However, I will say that I do prefer it to "praise music." I used to have a dentist who forced his clients to listen to praise music while he drilled on them. I actually got up and walked out when he refused to turn it off. I am a Christian, but just not the type that wants to be forced to listen to a poser sing, "Praise be, Praise be, Praise be" to a bunch of badly over produced electric guitars and a drum machine. Just jab an ice pick in my forehead, please.

Oh you don't like the sub genre of music for mostly failed musicians. I swear the majority of contemporary christian music is played by people who couldn't hack it in the music industry and found a ghetto where they can be considered good at what they do. It's funny that's what most of it sounds like. This doesn't apply to all religious music just the type that is repackaged pop music (i.e. things people listen to because they like it not because they're only allowed to listen the real thing)with a forced Christian theme.

I don't get how you can not like classical music. It is one of the few genres like that.

A fun fact, the Armor meat packing company also provided gut for stringed instrument.

and the frets on a de gamba are also gut or strings instead of metal. The modern Violin family have no frets.

Commies all love classical music. It keeps the people anesthetized and compliant. No one ever listens to Beethoven and then starts flipping cars and setting stuff on fire.

Hmmmm. It certainly had an effect on the droogies in Clockwork.

It strikes me as amusing that your replies to me always come across as argumentative, even when you are totally agreeing with me. Ha ha.

They never did violins to classical. That was how they anesthetized themselves. They did violins and sax to Arthur Freed and Nacio Herb Brown. Show tunes bring out the animal.

if you believe in Astrology it could be my Aries rising sign. If not it still could be.

I know it sounds like I am talking about the wrong band. But, nice nice nice.

Oh I know who the Buzzcocks were. I was a DJ in College in the early 80's. Thats pretty cool.

Does this answer your question?

This is a motivational song. I like it dear friend.

 

[JOHN72]

What's wrong with listening to classical music?

 

[puff_not_snuff]

Hey @JOHN72 I went and saw the Gipsy kings once, they were great! Guess they aren't Spaniards though.

I think it is a French musical formation of gypsy origin. I remember a song in English, I think it was a real disaster. There was a very funny singer that I liked a lot when I was a kid. Georgie Dann, remember?

He, I don't know. Maybe this is the song you speak of?

Societal pressure. There's a couple millennia of music from around the world to choose from. If a person can't find anything fascinating in all that, it says more about that person, than about the music.
