The Boy Bands Have Won, and All the Copyists and the Tribute Bands and the TV Talent Show Producers Have Won, If We Allow Our Culture to Be Shaped by Mimicry, Whether from Lack of Ideas or from Exaggerated Respect. You Should Never Try to Freeze Culture. What You Can Do Is Recycle That Culture. Take Your Older Brother's Hand-Me-Down Jacket and Re-Style It, Re-Fashion It to the Point Where It Becomes Your Own. But Don't Just Regurgitate Creative History, or Hold Art and Music and Literature as Fixed, Untouchable and Kept Under Glass. The People Who Try to 'Guard' Any Particular Form of Music Are, Like the Copyists and Manufactured Bands, Doing It the Worst Disservice, Because the Only Thing That You Can Do to Music That Will Damage It Is Not Change It, Not Make It Your Own. Because Then It Dies, Then It's Over, Then It's Done, and the Boy Bands Have Won by Chumbawamba
What's one of the most unusual album titles that you've heard of?
Ha. They made it farther than Virginia.
ReplyDeleteYes they did... Making past the first round was a huge accomplishment.
Deletethat chumbawamba title CRACKS ME UP.
ReplyDeleteit took me a little while to remember the details about it. I had heard it once before while playing trivia but could not for the life of my remember who the band was. Crazy, isn't it?
DeleteLOL, that Chumbawumba title is crazy!
ReplyDeleteNot sure if it's unusual, but I always liked the Sandi Thom album title "Smile... it confuses people". "Black Holes and Revelations" by Muse is interesting (and actually "Plug-In baby" by them could have been included in the song titles list). Don't Shoot Me, I'm Only the Piano Player by Elton John. Suck It and See by The Arctic Monkeys.
Isn't it? LOL!
DeleteYou added some pretty unusual ones, too!
