Stick-it-to-da-man-neiosis
Rock is all about "Stick-it-to-da-man-neiosis", literally translated - it means, revolt against the man - the established order and everything that is against your principles... Rock artists do that by writing songs about any darn thing they feel is not right..
I have recently acquired a collection of the 100 greatest rock songs and I keep on hearing them, esp. Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven" and eagles "Hotel california". Indians, fed on a regular dose of rhythmic Bollywood music may feel out of place hearing Rock as most Rock Songs have no set rhythm.. Guess it takes many hearings to really sink into a rock song..
Talking about the attitude of "Stick-it-to-da-man-neosis", I feel that I haven't been that much of a rebel my life, always following the set standards. For a change would like to Stick-it-to-da-man sometimes, try something new??
To my few readers, any time you can remember when you rebelled and had that awesome satisfaction..
Till Next Time
