Christian Rock

another attempt by greedy men in suits to cash in on something. Basically "Christian Rock" is just another product that is pushed to be sold by men in suits sitting behind desks who are saying, "You stupid Christian youth, this is your music". Another product to be sold, conning you out of your money. Most Christian Rock has rock trappings but the melodies and song structures are lame, derivative and not very original or exciting. The lyrics are usually preachy, pompous, overbearing and propagandistic. True songwriters write from the heart, not according to some format or formula. If you want to hear entertaining rock'n'roll that covers themes that Christians can relate to, there is plenty of it. U2 is an excellent example, they ROCK. Also, Pink Floyd, Genesis, the Ramones, the Beatles, Rush, Peter Gabriel and many other big name acts cover mature topics, yes, even with religious references and inspiration. Jesus can be found in everything, if you look hard enough.

Christian rock ain't nothing but propaganda for right wing fundies who care about the "message" more the music. It ain't really too different, in that aspect, from so-called Nazi rock. It's just propaganda, a product. Most of it is really just lame "adult" pop anyway. "You Light Up My Life" is one of the most goopy and hideous pieces of trash to ever hit the charts and airwaves. "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" is a great slab of "Jesus rock" because it comes from the HEART, like rock'n'roll is supposed to do in the first place.

Ziggy Marley

a son of Bob Marley who is a reggae superstar in his own right. He performed with his brother Stephen and 2 sisters in the Melody Makers in the 20th century and now is on his own, as is all the other Melody Makers. He is true to his legendary father's legacy.

I saw Ziggy Marley and the Melody Makers as an opening act for the B-52s in 1990, as an opener for Midnight Oil in 1993 and as a headlining act in 1998. It was great Caribbean rock'n'roll and good vibes each time. See Ziggy Marley for top-quality reggae.

Billie Jean instance

when you're out and about and some girl you may or may not remember from the past comes up to you and is either pregnant or with a child. Then she claims that YOU are the father.

I was in a BW3 restaurant and this short stacked young blonde woman dressed in a black sweather, a short black skirt and black shoes called out my name and she came up to me with a baby boy and his eyes were like mine. Oh no. Who is that girl? Where did I meet her? This is a Billie Jean instance. It's just like the 1983 Michael Jackson hit.

Losing my Religion

1. a southern slang phrase that means "flying off the handle", losing ones cool and losing ones self-control. Some people also think it could mean to get laid.

2. a big 1991 hit song from the Georgia rock band R.E.M..

1. George: Jeremy has been acting funny since he polished off a bottle of Wild Turkey.

Billy: Yep, he's lost some of his religion.

2. The title Losing My Religion caused some confusion at first here in the MidWest.

New Year's Day

1. the first day of a new calendar year.

2. a hit from the legendary Irish rock band U2. It's from their classic 1983 album "War". This song catapulted U2 into world-wide stardom and they go on to become one of the greatest, important and influential rock'n'roll bands of all time.

1. at midnight, when New Year's Eve switched to New Year's Day me and Erika embraced each other and kicked off the new year with a passionate kiss.

2. some radio stations still start New Year's Day with a broadcast of "Auld Lang Syne", often the version by Guy Lombardo. A radio station in my home city once played "Nineteen Hundred Eighty-Five" by Sir Paul McCartney to celebrate the new year which happened to be...

3. many radio stations now start a new year by playing "New year's Day" by U2.

4. ..."nothing changes on new year's Day..." - U2

5. I've seen U2 live in concert twice so far. Check them out, they are one of the greatest live bands in the Universe and that's the truth.

wankeroo

like jacking off or wanking, it's basically a waste, as in a waste of time and effort. Doesn't amount to much, it's basically just junk.

Much of the popular music in the fucking PC 90s and afterward, particularly this emo crap simply sounds like and says the same old thing, like "Ewwwwwwwwwww! You fucked me over this way, you fucked me over that way! You ran over my pet hamster with your Radio Flyer wagon when I was 6! Wah! I'm traumatized. Gimme some heroin." Most entertainment today is pure wankeroo because it's so cliche-ridden, formulaic, disposable, cookie cutter, without passion and unoriginal.
