![]() 1000 Kisses (2002) [ larger cover art ] |
Long black limousine
Shiniest car I've ever seen
The back seat is nice and clean
She rides as quiet as a dream
Someone dug a hole six long feet in the ground
I said goodbye to you and I threw my roses down
Ain't nothing left at all in the end of being proud
With me riding in this car and you flying through them clouds
I've had some time to think about it
And watch the sun sink like a stone
I've had some time to think about you
On the long ride home
One day I took your tiny hand
Put your finger in the wedding band
Your daddy gave a piece of land
We made ourselves the best of plans
Forty years go by with someone laying in your bed
Forty years of things you say you wish you'd never said
How hard would it have been to say some kinder words instead?
I wonder as I stare up at the sky turning red
I've had some time to think about it
And watch the sun sink like a stone
I've had some time to think about you
On the long ride home
Headlights searching down the driveway
The house is dark as it can be
I go inside and all is silent
And seems as empty as the inside of me
I've had some time to think about it
And watch the sun sink like a stone
I've had some time to think about you
On the long
On the long
Oh the long
On the long ride home

| calypsus_1 (East of Eden) | Posted: Feb 18, 2013 - 14:08 lol. I'm not sure if it's worth, respond to you, but one last time, here goes: I believe that you are a "good guy", but you're a joke round (in a good way), dedicate yourself to humorous comments. And, you remember: "is not only blind who can not see, more blind is the one that doesn´t want to see ..." |
| rdo (DC) | Posted: Feb 15, 2013 - 18:20 C1: I appreciate your genuine comments, when I can understand them, which is not very often. I do read them though. I honestly think I am about the only one who does. We need more people commenting like you. Believe me, we agree on a lot more than you may realize. But I don't think this is the place for images like yours, and the lyrics, and the little factoid/announcement/infomercials/links and repostings from journals, which are excessive. Could you at least not post the credits/copyright memos at the bottom of these? Any moron with an iPhone can take these pictures you post. I am all in favor of copyrights for creative content, but the idea that anyone stands to profit from these photos of struggling artists is laughable. Besides, why exactly do you post the copyright? Surely you are not protecting the financial interests of the performing artists themselves. Shouldn’t their images belong to them, and not some parasitic photographer? Why the hell should I care about the economic interests of some photographer who takes an unauthorized photo at a concert? No one would pay me one cent for any of these images. And for the people whining about this discussion taking place. Buzz the fuck off! I have had it up to here with whiners who hate discussions on a comment board. Fuck Off. |

| calypsus_1 (East of Eden) | Posted: Feb 03, 2013 - 06:46 I'm probably the most "anti-advertising", "anti-celebrity", "anti-star", that you may find, when discussing the topic music, and everything that is related to music. For me, the concept of "artistic merit" and "commercial merit" are perfectly defined and separated, when analyzing an artistic musical work, though compatible and coexist together. Obviously I understand that this contrasts sharply with and diverge the nature of the business and organization of the music industry, where everything, music / art, and business, with a whole roll, and even if accepted, that is the only way that makes sense . But it is not. That success is based on artistic merit, based on taste and adherence to this musical work, regardless of the success achieved on sale. The merit-based commercial success, is also based on a component like, but it is mandatory condition to be sold on a large scale. And therein lies the fundamental contradiction: that is to obtain and enforce commercial success, uses mechanisms promotional aggregates industry in order to induce and create advantage in a given musical work in order to obtain the maximum profit. Creating what they calls "music that is trendy." While it is relegated by default, artists and genres more elaborate, but which are not potentially interesting to come to generate sales. About my response to Horstman: I just direct "I replied to the letter," but I confess I have not used a lot of patience, and not used the "mass of polish words," obviously we are not here concerned people themselves, but what they say in their quality of this radio commentators. As few as. About the images, links, drawings, "reviews of background," i put here, there is nothing commercial or promotional, much less advertising, is an inestimable benefit, to create "visual identification ties", biographic, pedagogic character, if desired, with the artists, which in my personal perspective, of recognized merit beyond the average. You do not think, not even close, not even remotely, that all common people has access to artists, as you have. They have not. And you do not doubt it, that only listen "airplaylist" couple of hours daily is sufficient. Not at all. Because the dinosaurs of the music business, take a big advantage with the integrated control of their broadcast media - image, video.tv, newspaper-magazine, "corporate rags". So. I do a drawing for you: if you ask in any street of the western world, to an anonymous, for example, who is Justin Timberlake? Who is Gillian Welch ? Who is Patty Griffin? Who is Neil Young?, you'll be amazed. Patty who? I know a Patty, but is my neighbor the 4th left. Neil Young? let me see, what u say? Liliane? Gillian Welsh? who? Raquel Welch? ... Justin Timberlake? there will be many more people to hit the target ..... What makes the difference? comment "on board": specifically, does not exist. The closest thing is a "chat" giant, with allusions and commentary, instant character as part of a rolling platform, open to the entire community, style similar to "Twitter". Review: critical analysis or building on a theme based on taste, sensitivity, acceptance or rejection based on facts (quote or external collection of information), which may or may not contain, and be assisted with external links, photos, cartoons, drawings , video, and more. . rdo wrote: The comment board is for comments, not advertising.

Thank you Patty Griffin. Lefty Frizzell (March 31, 1928–July 19, 1975), born William Orville Frizzell, was an American country music singer and songwriter of the 1950s, and a proponent of honky tonkmusic. Fellow Texan Roy Orbison was a devout fan of Frizzell's sound, and in 1988, as a part of The Traveling Wilburys, he chose the name "Lefty Wilbury" to honor his musical hero. The country-music style is not obsolete and unused genre, as some stupid and unconscious comment as seen in many opinion for the Web and mass media. Prejudices. Also there are now many misunderstandings and prejudices about the U.S. protest music of the 60s up to today, as in other parts of the world, and about their authors, with the intention of devaluing and bleaching, to forget the past, the noble struggle, claim of rights, for peace, human rights, discrimination and rights of citizenship. But we must remember that these struggles are of yesterday, today and forever. Today, new generations were born in freedom and enjoy the rights enshrined, in the past did not, and should it to their ancestors who fought for it. Despite advances in human history (formal democracy, contitucionais rights, labor rights), we still see today the situation of degradation and forms of slavery, came to light (The New York Times) as the recent case of Apple sub-contracted production to a company based in China, using hand labor devalued, almost slaves, where workers earn below subsistence level. Would be very conviniente forget it all and start again. But there is something called History. That is to say that we must have historical memory, to do well today. Returning to the theme, rather, the country is a noble music-roots, is a kind which is based on much of music which has been produced over the last 40 or 50 years. It was through the country-music that the cultural identity of the U.S. established itself worldwide. Some of the greatest music creators of the U.S., had the chords of country music to its base. Today. Long before smaller genera "indies", "hipeshop" "raps" do look like they were before something new. Just because something new was needed to sell. We have come to start accepting nonsense, imagine, the dj's as authors and creators of new musical trends. dj's are important as drivers of publishers and music, but they are essentially manipulative of music. Some, succeed by talent and training, go up the music, and it has its merits, but can not be considered true creators of music. Creators of songs. This is the way to say that the mass media, radio stations. magazines, tv's, should not mislead the younger generation with labels invented, but rather seek to preserve the roots of traditional music, over the baton to new generations, and not "board" in the mercantilist perspective that plagues the world of the music industry, where it seems that anything goes, since it is profitable. From time to time I visit a "discoteque"-night-club. OMFG!, WTF is that?!! And they call music these sounds of mix-tapes'? I just only put the name of Music to musical works "with father and mother". So, is like that keeps young people distracted and sodomized with these noise-sounds of "loom-automatic-non-stop"? What's worse is that young people consent ..... ....you left me at Lefty Frizzell........boring.....words and music.... |
