My wife was explaining to me why she loved 'Chop Suey' by System of a Down. I must admit to having no idea what it was about other than some brutal riffs with a man shouting too fast to understand over the top. I'm very much a lyrics kind of man. So you are married to a rock chick. My missus is going to see Mama Mia in a couple of weeks if that tells you anything. TBF I have dragged her along to see KISS a few times and she has been subjected to years of Metal. As a result she does know the lyrics to more songs than she would admit to in public and that Jethro Tull is not a bloke.(not since the seed drill anyway)

We find ourselves in society in which people are more concered with how they feel or perceive something than any facts or statistics about a subjects. I had a conversation with someone tonight who is totally convinced that the earth is flat, with a domed roof on which stars are projected. Anything that suggest otherwise is a conspiracy. How can anyone deal with that kind of embraced ignorance.

If there are "spongers" then they are in large part due to the failings of our capitalist society to provide adequate education,training and rewarding jobs. Then again, some are just sponging b******s.

I don't think the artists can be blamed for being influenced, but society can be blamed for suppressing black musical talent. Those days are now over. I'd also say that rock has not just been influences by the blues. It has also absorbed classical music and other traditional forms.
