well THANK YOU! i was reading these comments and could not face the idea of
having to take on the defense of yoko yet again.
conceptual, avant garde art is not for everyone. but it gets pretty tiresome
having to hear people who just can't get it dismiss it as worthless. such
arrogance! and yes, I'LL certainly (and gladly) say it: such stupidity!
you end up sounding like those idiots who fell all over themselves to scorn
the artist who put the crucifix in a container filled with his urine, or the
morons who look at a picasso and say "my 5 year old draws better pictures
than this!" jaysus! i expect more from the JMDL. (although i am less sure
why, of late...)
what a crank i am these days! ric
ps. and for those of you who just can't figure bjork out...email me
privately and i will make you a copy of "human behavior". but only if you
promise you will play it on your little stereos at high volume. 4 or 5
minutes of your lives. those tribal drums will make believers out of you, i
feel certain! and i'd be willing to bet she sings better than any of you do.
i've heard many of you at the joni fest and i'd take bjork ANY DAY OF THE
WEEK!!!
no offense intended. (i think)
