Vocal Poetry

the me-too movement was started by young black women lacking social opportunity...the media turned that into 'sex between the stars'...now, while there is quite lewd and gross modern music, the blind fish in the tank are lobbying against old style vocal-poetry to take it off the radio: (try to write poetry that sounds like this) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMHS6D8tFvE you're not sick you're just in love stan sand

This makes me think of the debate over the song 'Baby its cold outside' - while a couple of the lyrics are clearly out-dated, it is still part of my holiday music!

exactly...many of those songs marked my childhood years and only the music of love came through... nobody warped out of shape...it's just that there are people blind to some of todays rap music gross outs and those people, being social predators, go for easy prey the tunes of elderly are the disposables since those music fans are dying out...it's like the novels we studied in school are now being replace by things more 'socially acceptable'...like, forget historical times and places, (for some reason) protect the public from reality
