Well he gets some props from me for his references to Strange Fruit and On the Waterfront. Setting aside whether or not you appreciate his music, as a lyricist he is extremely talented. Sick, as my son would say.

Yes, let's all of us Stones fans get up in arms over vulgar, tasteless lyrics. And heaven forbid, don't let the kids here em!
Yikes, how did I land here...Aquamarine, it's all your fault. You can pay me back with a glass of wine someday.

Ha...excellent post. You can isolate the lyrics of more than a dozen Stones songs and have a laugh or a sneer.

Heck NL, what are you comparing it to...Stray Cat Blues or @#$%&? I don't pretend to get hip hop and rap, but I do know that the lyrics can't be separated from the beat, the rhythmic chant. Of course it looks kinda ridiculous on a page, it's not meant to be experienced that way.
Okay, I'm taking a peace out from this thread.

No worries bloomer, you are totally right about the lyrics can't generally be separated and analyzed too closely, as true for rock as it is for rap and R & B. Unless you're Bob Dylan, the poetry usually doesn't work on it's own.
I guess I was just questioning the "as a lyricist he is extremely talented" part, trying to understand where it came from. peace

what in god's name is a boognish? oh, I guess that's what google is for:
boognish
1.) Demon God who has shown himself thrice to the prophet brothers Deaner and Gener. Resides somewhere outside the orbital buffer. Tradition has it that this entity holds a sceptor in each hand: that of wealth and that of power.
2.) slang term for nooglet.
Big Fat @#$%&.......Feeling Like A Big Fat @#$%&

Wasn't looking to win anything treacles, just adding my opinion. Why don't you join Aqua and I for that big glass of wine and we can talk coffee instead of Kanye?

No worries NL, and I'll grant you,"extremely" was maybe a bit much, how about just somewhat talented?

I'm not a fan of Sam Smith BUT the song " Stay With Me" does not sound like Petty's song at all. Tom Petty made enough money in his day, let the guy alone!
I HATE Kanye West. The guy is such a media pig. And obnoxious, arrogant and a total BORE!
I had to toss my 2 cents in. Other than that, I enjoyed the Grammy Awards a lot this year.

Really? I recognized it long before an issue was made of it.
