some years back i asked my nephew why the white kids his age all liked rap music so much...his answer made me think. He said the songs from my generation simply made no sense lyrically...songs like “Stairway to Heaven”..Yes-”i seen all good people” etc...well this is one of those songs. And ya know, he wasn’t wrong. Rap was stripped down “street talk” and thats why they liked it. Gotta admit, some of “my songs” simply make zero sense.
Stairway to Heaven makes a lot of sense. The second verse makes a reference to an earlier hit, Over the Rainbow.
Gotta admit, some of “my songs” simply make zero sense.
Neither do rap songs...
