No, I would'nt say you're a bit sensitive, some people are going to call me one
of those tin foil hat trolls for this next bit, but here goes. After hearing what goes on in the production of some music it makes me a bit nervous, record
producers taking it to a local witch to have it "blessed", etc.. I understand that there are plenty of crackpot stories out on the internet, but this one is
true, and I know there are stories that go deeper than that saying most of these record producers, movie stars, etc are part of Iluminati, which don't seem so far fetched. I like to keep an open mind, but also not nieve enough to
FIRMLY believe everything I read.

a funny thing about the rap artists are they act all tough and macho but a lot of them are gay for pay or dont care where they put it.
suge knight said that and i heard a lot of other people say it about these rap artists.

I was listening on NPR to a story when the Grammy nominations were made, and "Conversations with Nijinsky" by CF Kip Winger got a nomination.
*That* Kip Winger, of hair metal/MTV and Beavis and Butthead fame.
Who knew?
I'm listening to it now at kipwinger.com - check it out.
Which explains why some of these artists get away with putting in what they in; lack of concern or consideration and still pushing the proverbial envelo further and further.Well you're going into a pretty subjective area. Lyrics has always been a point of contention for artists going back at least the last 50 years if not more. Peoples tastes are different, so yeah, something is going to offend or turn off somebody. Hell, The Troggs, or whoever it was that wrote 'Louie Louie' wound up being investigated by the FBI. They were the most famous example, but probably not the only ones.

Really? So who were those guys and where did they go?
Well, I'm not going to call you tin-foil hat crazy, but assuming for a moment that this witch-blessing is true, I'm not sure why this would impact you or anyone else. I almost equate this to someone freaking out because they found out their house was blessed by a priest by the previous owners. If your not a follower of the faith, it really isn't relevent to you.

some samples. For a guy who got such a bad rap, he keeps really busy these days with his rock and classical stuff. He's probably done better musically than most of his peers from that era. Not sure if that's saying much but...

If they faked the moon landings, you'd think NASA could fake another triumph in the 45 some-odd years since they shut down the sound stage in Chatsworth.

they only had to fake it once because there was a space race and we won it. after the space race was won, almost zero interest.

there's some music i hear that makes me wanna rob a damn liquor stor.
One career I've followed is Stan Ridgway - singer in Wall of Voodoo, had an early MTV hit with "Mexican Radio", went solo, recorded a couple of critical well-received new-waveish albums, then found his sound as a crooner/storyteller. He weaves engaging songs that are part story, often of some unlucky rube done wrong.
True. I'm listening to music that seems to be steering me towards beastiality. But they're really good tunes, so who am I to complain???

Nature is'nt cruel, Humans are cruel, we're too full of ourselves to live in harmony with what we have been given. and too much information/education has been lost through the "crusades" and dark ages. so certain people can keep dominion over the rest, that we continue to live in this "stone age industr revolution". we as a people could be so enligneted right now if not for Dogm and the fear of a vengeful God. Why would a creator (or seeder) want to keep their creation hindered.. I find it all stupid..

To say

why should we be more civilized than nature? in actuality, we are much worse than nature. there is nothing good about man; he is a destructive organism.
fucking cruel. we are not meant to love one another. we are not meant to accept different kinds of people.
Seems to me it would be best to improve ourselves, to try to be better than that, rather than to continue on being cruel to each other. Why would we want to keep doing that? There's so much hatred and cruel things going on in the world, and I keep thinking there must be a better way.

Nature is'nt cruel,
I suppose if you take the statement "nature is cruel" at face value, I suppose what some people are referring to are things like animals that hunt other animals for food, etc. - but I suppose that's just the way of nature.
I agree totally. We can't excuse the cruel behavior we see with statements
learn to improve ourselves so that we can do it. We need to somehow grow out of this phase where someone wouldn't consider helping someone else in need, or where some people don't want to be around different kinds of people, or (on a more global scale) we have nuclear weapons that we're ready to drop on other people because they piss us off or we disagree with them.

If that's what you think about humans, do you include yourself in that statement?
why should we be more civilized than nature? in actuality, we are much worse than nature. there is nothing good about man; he is a destructive organism.
You're reminding me of Agent Smith from The Matrix. To quote: "Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet."
Yep, I think we have a ways to go in order to better ourselves. Sometimes I >wonder that if there is a God, perhaps he put all the different types of people
and languages etc. on the earth so that we'd learn to cooperate and be a >peaceful civilization - I think that would be a worthy goal.
I may have my bible stories mixed up, but wasn't the point of the Tower of Babel story that he punished us by making us all speak different languages so that there would be difficulty communicating, lack of cooperation (so we would not try to build a tower to Heaven again), and conflict?
Seems to me it would be best to improve ourselves, to try to be better
yeah but we've had plenty of time to do that, but we keep doing the same old shit if you REALLY take a look in an unbiased way.

Because nuclear weapons are probably the worst kind of weapons we have.. Seems like that would have gone without saying. Also, some countries have a stockpile of nuclear weapons, which suggests some people think they might want to use them.

I used to think that but recently I watched a mini-series about WWI. I think
I would rather get nuked and vaporized instantly than get hit with mustard gas. That was horrible and could remain in an area for a very long time, until some unsuspecting person disturbed whatever it was "hiding" in.

I was thinking of weapons in terms of the effect of killing lives, particularly
innocent lives. That was my thinking as far as nuclear weapons being the worst.
They certainly seem like the most powerful. Mustard gas is certainly terrible >too.
no, chemical weapons are the worst kinds of weapons.
no, chemical weapons are the worst kinds of weapons.
Seems like it depends on the criteria you use. Nuclear weapons are pretty bad for killing a lot of people quickly.

There's no way you can build a tower to heaven, so that's not what they
were punished for. They thought they could be God or be better than God
with their worldly 'building of a tower.' That's the part God said couldn't fly.

I agree this may be true with a majority of main-stream music, but I
would say that we have more musical talent available now than any time before. There are many small artists on Bandcamp and Soundcloud for example who have alot of talent and have much better lyrics and musical ability than main-stream music.
Unfortunately, due to the difficulty and expense of marketing and accessing the dinosaur radio & media markets, great artists sometimes don't get the airtime. But, one could say that the music market has changed and people don't really listen to "FM" radio and such any more.
