GUEST,s-j in London John Tams asks Bellowhead about politics (125* d) RE: John Tams asks Bellowhead about politics 24 Aug 11


It's interesting to see that sometimes people think that musicians / singer songwriters have a duty to be political...why? And you cant assume that you will agree with all of anyones political beliefs / ideas.

I read that when people mention Dylan as a 'political' (although I have never really thought so especially, more social commentary) songwriter, he is not thinking about that himself nor especially trying to be so.

I'm interested in politics, and sometimes find political songs that I like/connect with, but I don't think it's something that should be expected.
