Two things of note:

1. I have now reached a peak of 1355 rep points. Woo.

2. Apparently Bob Dylan called modern musicians "amateurs" in a recent interview. Or acrobats. You just can't tell.

When you wake up, discuss.

Well that's a bit of a silly statement to make. Surely your an amatuer if you're inexperienced, and if by 'modern' he meant 'young' then you could call him right, but i'm sure that's not what he meant. So was he comparing today's top muso's with yester-years and calling todays amatuers? I wouldn't agree, their are more experienced muso's around now then in Dylans hey day IMHO.

1. He can't sing [u]anymore[/u]. He used to have a voice, a long, long, time ago, but then all the drugs, drinking and smoking absolutely destroyed it. Now you can't tell wha the Hell he's saying.

2. Now I wouldn't go that far. You may not like him, but that's just mean.

'sup having a day off school tomorrow due to problems with the electricity :cool:

I'm going into town for 'shrooms, a swordfight with Power Rangers swords and to take some photos for my art.

But I like you.

I'll get pics of the swordfight for y'all.

All I need to do now is find the goddam sword, and some batteries so it can talk...

Wow.

Woo, i got my friend liking bad religion, f1, AND i got her to like Op Ivy too, im so clever :cool:

[QUOTE=Med57]You're taking the f[COLOR=White]u[/COLOR]cking piss. Seriously, I refuse to accept that you can look at some of his best work, and say he has no lyrical skill. He's produced a whole load of crap, but some of his albums are sublime. Just out of interest, which lyricists are actually clearly better?
[/QUOTE]

T'was actually a joke, I don't think he's bad, I'm not a fan though, and I definately don't like his lyrical style.
For me, it's the rhyming couplets that vex me, if theres anything that gets to me about someones lyrics, it's lines like this,

[QUOTE]You might be a rock 'n' roll addict prancing on the stage,
You might have drugs at your command, women in a cage,
You may be a business man or some high degree thief,
They may call you Doctor or they may call you Chief[/QUOTE]

That just annoys me, rhyming couplets true power and force comes out when used sparingly, it also detracts from the lyrical power when you furrow your brow at how you can rhyme the next line. I mean, how can you write a song that reflects how you feel when the last word of the line has to rhyme with the last word of the line before it?

As for what I consider to be a better lyricist, Dead Poetic.

Get me out of this hell before I'm sucked in.
But you're the beautiful one.
And everyone is painted on, singing scripted songs.
And your seizure-like finger is dead on the trigger.
And then, it's all blown away. With you or us all.
And they had you in their targets.
They're smiling with you in their targets.[/QUOTE]

When you free yourself from rhyming constantly, (and anti rhyming) and try and free yourself from all the standard constraints, you can write much more emotional and deep songs because your next line isn't structured by the sound of the last.
Take poetry for example, the best poets don't rhyme everything, and they don't un-rhyme everything, they merely let everything flow as their mind puts it, rhymes or no rhymes, however, it isn't natural to express yourself in rhyme like alot of Bob Dylans lyrics are, it's much more natural to have more non-rhyming lines than rhyming lines.

Well in my Music In Context lecture, the general opinion of most students, and of the lecturer themselves, was that he couldn't sing compared to the blues singers of the day who had to have strong powerful voices to project over the backing. I'm not saying he warbles his way through songs, but he open the doorway for pop and rock singers who weren't perfect like the technical singers of the time. I'm just saying it's very immature of him to go around calling modern musicians amature when he himself couldn't compete with the singers of his time on a technical level.

Its always good to see K's good side in this thread. I may have questions for you at some point, as im really taking thought into home recording (again), and am lost with it.


And I have a cut on my finger that is bleeding out of control. Smaller the cut, bigger the blood flow it seems.

:( I missed the imaaaage of Chris :(

So did I. But half the people on here never post pics of themselves.

So they have a week before I put up more artist interpretations.

Alright, way to be. I've totally got it now.

Well put.

Bob Geldof certinally gave the Bob name the reputation of grumpy

The bleeding has stopped, thank god. I hate stupid little cuts like that.

(any sign of the Pink Floyd tracks yet? :D)

Feel free to ask away my child.
Oh and stick a steristrip on that cut, just to be melodramatic.

[QUOTE]Yeah...fair points there. I'd never heard of the lyricist you mentioned, but that looks very impressive. With Dylan, he's never had a particularly great voice, and his comments are probably more "grumpy old man syndrome" than anything else. Not saying I agree with him, which I don't, but I'd be surprised if he said what was quoted completely in context.[/QUOTE]

Dead Poetic are a fairly small melodic hardcore christian band from some country other than this one, I really admire the way he sings the lyrics too, he seems to get it just right.
