I think it's supposed to be a black and white, old west, cowboy and Indians adventure. I love Iron Maiden and don't believe they were being hateful or edgelordy when they wrote Run To The Hills in 1982. That seems to be a trend in the kind of music that leaves an impact on me Devin Townsend's another example (although I don't think he's ever done anything especially cancellable), and while someone like Phil Ochs or Randy Newman may be looked back on fondly in the current climate, it could've gone either way. Musical acts like Zappa and Ween often hit a kind of "mean comedy" streak, which I enjoy because I feel comfortable with the people behind it and their intentions, and it often feels refreshingly opposed to the self-importance behind a lot of music (granted, Zappa was self-important in his own way). I'm only just approaching 30 and was basically raised on South Park and death metal, so perhaps I'm not past the stage where I think that kind of stuff can be funny. I can imagine it being something you grow out of. It' s only fair that she knows, you know, you knowįair enough. We should all get together in a lovin machine Well it really doesn't matter what religion you choose The world and all its got And keep it stirring for a hundred years or moreĪnd turn out coffee coloured people by the score If it could only come true, you know, you know Oh Lordy, Lordy, mixed with yellow Chinkees, yeahĪnd you got a recipe for a get along scene One thing that always comes to mind is when there's a live video, I think it's Does Humor belong in Music, where there's 8 men on stage shouting 'Don't fool yourself girl, it's going up your poop, poop chute'. I can't help but feel that, when you strip away the ironic distance and superciliousness, there is a streak of cruelty that makes it all considerably less enjoyable, especially when he's punching down. Went back a couple of years later, and felt a bit 'Eh, this is not remotely cool at all.'Īnd you could extrapolate that to my feelings on Zappa in general.
#The frogs racially yours update
I think it's the live version of Honey, Don't You Want a Man Like Me (which is a pretty grim Ha! Ha! Rape! song, even if the male protagonist is main focus of the ireYet they take time out to update the lyrics so that her favourite music is Twisted Sister not Helen Reddy because: Haha! What a dumb bitch!) on You Can't Do That On Stage Anymore that did it for me, though. Yeah, I suppose the thing with him is that there so much open to interpretation that people can project or detract as much as they want.

You'll love it if you're into Ween, Wesley Willis or Moldy Peaches.Quote from: kngen on June 24, 2020, 01:35:00 PM Now, it's out and well worth the wait! Every song on here is a classic. The Frogs album that they recorded in 1993 was to racey for any labels to release.
