--- Quote from: maddness on 03 Sep 2009, 14:25 ---My husband listens to Country music and Rock about equally. He's a country boy. I lived in his home town for a few years. Believe me, I've heard plenty of Country music. Besdies, ho says you can't enjoy something and still poke fun at it?

--- End quote ---

Our house is like that - my mom's all like "Lucinda Williams and Dixie Chicks ftw" and my dad's all like "Bruce Springsteen and Allman Brothers ftw"

I got the rock gene. lml

maddness:
How old are we talking here? The songs I listed are 17, 19, and 7 years old respectively.

Black Sheep? Are we talking specific songs or artist in general, because Trace Adkins beat Billy Ray for song with that damned Honly Tonk Badonkadonk song ... hands down.

In America we have both.

[Linnaeus]Technically we have opossums which are distinct from Australian possums, though in common parlance the words are often used interchangeably.[/Linnaeus]

--- End quote ---

They are indeed. According to the great manual of Wikipedia, we have 69 different species of possum in Australia. And sometimes it sounds like every single one of them is running across the roof of my house.

--- End quote ---

I listen to plenty of country. I didn't suggest that country music is or isn't the appropriate genre for Sven's angst. I said maybe he'll write music for a genre he actually enjoys. Sven doesn't seem to like country music or his own songs. He's wealthy because he's a marketable song writer and doesn't have to work too hard or use any real emotions in order to sell lyrics.  Now he has some real raw emotion and some serious regret and I would think that he'd be more likely to take his REAL emotions and put them in a genre of music he enjoys listening to. I'm pretty sure he's an indie music fan like Faye and Marten.

Also I think most MUSIC in general is about someone whining about someone they just lost.

Also because I have nothing else to do. A song concept for Sven:

Here's the story of your
red right knuckle
that you used to bruise my face*
as the muscle bone and sinew mangled
and the skin  was roughly shed

how it whispered 'this cocksucker cheated on me'
because we are bound by dysfunctionality
and whatever differences our views have been
we'll probably end up in bed again

This is the story of your
red right knuckle...

*These are metaphorical bruises. I know that Faye never actually hit Sven.
