Music and lyrical waxing

Music musings continued…my mom likes country music…Ok not the most riveting opening but I hope you might read on. I don't want to insult my mammies musical taste as country music has rhythm, a great beat and is generally quite entertaining. The muso generally sings about his/her life experience, the death of a dog, or the divorcing of a fifth wife etc and takes us through a journey, no matter how arbitrary.

Here are some cracking titles from the country genre..

I’d Like to Check You For Ticks
I Got Friends in Low Places
I’m So Much Cooler On-Line
I Ain’t As Good As I Once Was, But I’m Good, Once, As I Ever Was
Would You Like Fries With That, (the divorce song)
It’s 5 O’clock Somewhere
I’m Gonna Hire A Wino to Decorate our Home
Whiskey for My Men, Beer for My Horses
Get Drunk and Be Somebody
Jesus Loves You But I Don’t

Don’t say I never give you anything…Go and check out the lyrics…

On a local front, I had the pleasure of listening to a local Afrikaans radio station…my dad would be proud…the other day. A local singer was singing about his liefie Marriane…and how in love with her he was… until he decides he has had enough of his life, being proud and all that and shoots his entire family before taking his own life.
But now that sounds like a country and western song again…

Heep Hop is also generally quite entertaining too..they are always on about money, bling, watches sneakers, cars and the tangible things in life, oh and sex, a whole lot of it.

"I dont know whats better, getting laid or getting paid,I just know when I'm gettin one, the others' gettin away"- KanYe West with Dilated Peoples -"This Way"
"Cuz they're addicted, to what my dick did,the pleasure and pain the wing-ding inflicted"Eazy-E - "Grand Finale" –
"Damn homie, in high school you was the man homie,what the fuck happened to you?"50 Cent-
