DEATH OF ART: In the Media Mix, What Happens to Music?
|
||
|
||
My third favorite Melanie Safka song is "What Have They
|
||
Done To My Song, Ma." I like it so much I have it on four
|
||
albums. "Candles In The Rain," "Best Of," "Beautiful,"
|
||
and "The Four Sides Of." We ought to take a look at what
|
||
they've done to EVERYONE'S songs!
|
||
|
||
"At the end of November, the day after George Harrison died,"
|
||
Norman Solomon reports in FAIR's Media Beat, "the NPR program
|
||
'Fresh Air' treated listeners to reminiscences and tributes to
|
||
his work. The show ended with Harrison's transcendent song
|
||
'All Things Must Pass' -- while a voice-over intoned a slew
|
||
of underwriter credits, closing with a promotional pitch for a
|
||
'wealth management' company. As an interlude, airing on what
|
||
passes for public radio, the incongruous mix was business as
|
||
usual, offering artistic quality while undercutting it with
|
||
routine corporate-driven messages. Guitars gently wept."

||

|
||
|
||
(I'll lift one more quote from Solomon's story - if you want
|
||
the rest get it yourself at commondreams.org or fair.org, ok?)

"Economic powerhouses are well-positioned to trivialize music
|
||
by foisting audio schlock onto vast audiences of innocent
|
||
bystanders -- and also by recycling popular music to hook
|
||
people into buying specific products. Large quantities of
|
||
rock songs, ranging from the mediocre to the marvelous, have
|
||
become snippets of soundtracks for TV commercials. It all
|
||
adds up to a concerted assault on meaning, with music very
|
||
functional as a heavy battering ram."
|
||
|
||
What are my first two favorite Melanie songs?
|
||
|
||
You had to ask.
|
||
|
||
"Close To It All" and her version of "Purple Haze," I think.
|
||
|
||
With dozens of close 4ths I must add.
|
||
|
||
"NATION SHALL NOT LIFT UP SWORD AGAINST NATION.
|
||
NEITHER SHALL THEY LEARN WAR ANY MORE."

FATWA BLUES
|
||
by Marco May 20, 1995
|
||
|
||
A fatwa on George Bush
|
||
A fatwa on the NRA
|
||
A fatwa on Newt Gingrich
|
||
GOP, FBI, CIA, NSA, DEA
|
||
|
||
A fatwa on every 3-letter word in the government.
|
||
|
||
A fatwa on every 4-letter word out of
|
||
Anyone's fatwa mouth.
|
||
|
||
Neo nazi training camps?
|
||
Militant subversive overthrow groups
|
||
Whether left, right or center.
|
||
|
||
And racist magazines?
|
||
Fat wa on all of them!
|
||
|
||
A fatwa on anyone who continues to
|
||
use the words "politically correct."
|
||
|
||
20 years for George Bush --
|
||
NRA can do his other 30.
|
||
|
||
GOP, FBI, CIA, NSA, DEA? 2 years each.
|
||
All other three letter words get 1
|
||
Except for the IRS
|
||
|
||
They get forever!
|
||
|
||
A day for each "fuck."
|
||
Half a day for each "shit."
|
||
All the rest get an hour.
|
||
|
||
All neo-nazis except Newt Gingrich
|
||
Get 6 years and 3 months.
|
||
Gingrich? He can rot in hell.
|
||
OK. A large toaster.
|
||
|
||
OK. A tanning salon.
|
||
|
||
People who use the words "Politically Correct?"
|
||
Don't get me started...
|
||
|
||
A fatwa on everyone who fatwa'd
|
||
Salmon Rushdie.
|
||
Fatwa on cops, lawyers congressmen and
|
||
Rap singers.
|
||
|
||
And a fat fucking wa on
|
||
Anyone who ever uses the word
|
||
Fatwa
|
||
again.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
And we end this year, and this zine with a poem.
|
||
|
||
It's called:
|
||
|
||
AMERICAN DAYLIGHT
|
||
|
||
by Minnesota poet Charlton Metcalf
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
waking up
|
||
|
||
like a roller coasters first drop
|
||
|
||
accelerate aware
|
||
|
||
American daylight
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
hair of the dog
|
||
|
||
French maid toast
|
||
|
||
breakfast in bed
|
||
|
||
covers hog
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
stretching,
|
||
|
||
armpit close...
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
chewing like a tropical Gauguins best girl,
|
||
|
||
murmuring a name with the occasional vowel...
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
I<EFBFBD>d like to trade her for a New York slice
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
That's all for ati306.
