It's not "token resistance" that's the part you don't understand. I don't like bars. They contain people.

I think in certain genres like blues and jazz it's been the case for a long time. I can name many popular songs going back to the 20s that feature suggestive lyrics. It doesn't take a genius to know what Howlin' Wolf means when he's talking about 'jelly rolls.'

But yes, it's more a lack of romance today, a celebration of hedonism, casual sex. If a song isn't about sex it's about partying, materialism.etc - it's all part and parcel.

However I will say, as much as I love the music of the 50s and 60s it is annoying how 9 out of 10 songs are love songs. Love songs have their place but that's not the ONLY thing in life.

Lol...you're a piece of work Doll, but I definitely do admire how you stand up for what you believe in and don't take any crap from anybody.

yesterday you hated me. I don't get you trimac, LOL. Anyways, I don't know why I am piece of work, I was being serious, it's not 'token resistance,' which implies I'm resisting something just for the sake of doing so. *shrugs*
