I was thinking more in this kind of cheap lyrics, which I swear I cannot call poetry or art at all: "This is the beat that make you shake your rump<br />That make your booty go ba-bump, ba-bump<br />It's that beat that make ya bump ya bump (ohh)"<br />:DГалинаhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15574721341439857708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8877257491825385546.post-47725853691251741202012-04-09T11:13:15.280-07:002012-04-09T11:13:15.280-07:00Ok, you may not have been talking about me directl...Ok, you may not have been talking about me directly, but I think you're saying there is something wrong with selling art, and I'm part of that group of people who sells their art. Yes, it's too bad that there is so much bad art out there for sale, but that's a whole 'nother subject. I only know of one way to make a living, one way to pay for my existence - that is to make music. Mike Tyson made a lot of money for fighting because it was all he knew, and because he loved doing it, it's the same for me - except for the lots of money part. I will agree that there are a lot of people who don't care about true art, and I hope that someday a way is found to keep crappy, phony art out of the public's sight - but until then, I will continue to be offended by false hype, and by the belief that there is something wrong with selling my art.The Fidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02143997779271160583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8877257491825385546.post-57216102242469425802012-04-09T10:04:08.985-07:002012-04-09T10:04:08.985-07:00I wasn´t talking about you :(I wasn´t talking about you :(Галинаhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15574721341439857708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8877257491825385546.post-34523453680808772552012-04-08T23:32:44.228-07:002012-04-08T23:32:44.228-07:00Ok, great, but reality is what it is, "Spirit...Ok, great, but reality is what it is, "Spirit", "Love of music or poetry", those things don't pay the rent or buy food. People paid Johnn Cash, Kris Kristofferson, Gabby Pahinui, and many others for their music, so if that's good enough for them, it's good enough for me. Yes, I want the money that my music can bring - if that makes me a bad person, then I'm a fucking bad person - and I'll wear it proudly. People are happy to pay for something that brings them pleasure - so they might as well pay me. This is not a perfect world, I don't get to dictate anything, all I have is to do what I do, and try to get what I earn. Once again, if that makes me a bad person, I'll wear it proudly.The Fidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02143997779271160583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8877257491825385546.post-34031968001008240982012-04-08T16:01:11.336-07:002012-04-08T16:01:11.336-07:00I think sonwriters need to be poets, spirit of poe...I think sonwriters need to be poets, spirit of poetry; nowadays nobody cares about poetry but money, -easy money.Галинаhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15574721341439857708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8877257491825385546.post-38389277021765021812012-04-08T14:07:46.921-07:002012-04-08T14:07:46.921-07:00One of the greatest.
