I was a musician too! I started lessons at age 5, the drums. I'm 59 now. I played professionally for many years. Yet, I have no clue about who artists are now. The last new band to come out that I absolutely loved was...The Police! LOL! Seriously. I've given all bands a chance, really I have. But, they lack melody, harmony, lyrical originality, and well...TALENT! Some say that means I'm an old fart. So be it. I love Lady Gaga's voice, but not her music. Man, she can sing like no other I've ever heard. Still, I must like the music, above all else. The Beatles were comparable to life starting here on earth, billions of years ago. That really is the way one must look at it. Despite the odds, a group of 4 people came together to make the most wonderful music we'll ever have. And, to think that they did this while in their 20's makes it all the more amazing! I love Rubber Soul and Revolver best. To me, it's a tie. There's never been a band like the Beatles and there NEVER will be another! Edited March 2, 2019 by 2prnot2p 1 Link to post
F.W 5,734 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Usually by listening to music,it means im browsing YouTube... Just now was into "Village People".They had some funky hits late 70s-early 80s.Just at the end of the disco era. Basically a gay vocal group,fronted by Victor Willis.I think the Village People did more to advance gay rights and general acceptance of gayness than anything else,they almost made it "cool".A 6 piece vocal band,Victor Willis(Motorcycle cop)was lead vocals. Then supported by a Construction worker,Cowboy,Hells Angel,Red Indian and Army guy/Sailor usually..Great hits,"In the Navy","YMCA","Macho Man","Go West". 2 Link to post

gldenwetgoose 21,500 Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Awesome they used AC/DC in the Iron Man movies- it brought some classics to a whole new generation. Was great hearing my son teaching himself it on his guitar. Link to post
2prnot2p 1,066 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) This is a song from my favorite band, Procol Harum. Although the song is from 1974, the lyrics are timeless and do apply to the world today. "Psychiatrists and Lawyers destroying mankind Drivin' 'em crazy and stealing 'em blind Bankers and Brokers ruling the world Storing the silver and hoarding the gold Ain't no use in preachers preaching When they don't know what they're teaching The weakest man be strong as Samson When you're being held to ransom Famine and hardship in true living colour Constant reminders...the plight of our brother Daily starvation our diet of news Fed to the teeth with a barrage of views Ain't no use in preachers preaching When they don't know what they're teaching The weakest man be strong as Samson When you're being held to ransom Black men and white men, and Arabs and Jews Causing congestion and filling the queues Fighting for freedom the truth and the word Fighting the war for the end of the world Ain't no use in preachers preaching When they don't know what they're teaching Weakest man be strong as Samson When you're being held to ransom" Edited March 24, 2019 by 2prnot2p 1 1 Link to post
