A couple of songs by a master

Its funny you mention that. Not one in particular,... but artists over time. The words they choose. They have so many basic emotions rolled into one statement or story. Its the reason some songs or even artists break away from those who reach the top ten of the day's hits. The message!

Look at the Beatles? 40 years later youth still listen to whats inbedded in the song. Search the masters like Mozart. The man was a slave to statement. Such subtlety. Primative.

And the list is long. Who could ignore Depeche modes "Blasphomous rumors"? What a simple yet striking statement to those safe in their dogma. Its brilliance upon layers of understatement. Ah yes music. Whether with or with out verbal association its simple, yet powerfull.

Guess I am looking for another build too? Yeah Right!
