Death by Rock and Roll

Today I would like to take the opportunity to reflect on original music.

There seems to be some sort of misunderstanding regarding originality.

From my perspective music is a bizarre controlled conglomeration of sonic vibrations that can elicit a trained response in humans.

Or is it trained?

We’ve all heard the infamous classical music study where plants died under the influence of rock and roll and thrived under the influence of classical.

The researcher must have been under the influence.

    Not as catchy, though. “I’m picking up good sonic vibrations, she’s giving me sonic excitations.” And at least rock and roll got a reaction out of the plants.

    You have to sing it fast, a la “Lady Madonna trying to make ends meet, yeah.”

    Man I’m losing it.

    I have to spend many moments just trying to grab onto that brilliant rejoinder.

    So classical isn’t as catchy? Yeah, I can agree with that.

    Still, I recognize the fact that the classic pop song is in fact a hyperactive shortened version of classical.
