I am sure there is something in the human psyche....with early inprinted and adolescent rebellion.
A couple of years back I was walking with a colleage, of the same generation, across a large quad area. A young, live group, was performing on the outdoor stage. I briefly, missed a step in our pace. He paused, mid-conversation and asked, "What is it?"
I replied,"That music."
He said, "Yeah its awful"
My responce was, "Yes, but, originally that rhythem and bass were known as"In-A-Godda-Da-Vida"
Ever since, ...upon occasion, ....he will sometimes shake his head and comment, "In-A-Godda-Da-Vida"
I grew up with Burl Ives and the "Three Little Kittens" but danced, investigated plants, and romanced, to early "Acid" - Both are permanently etched within my brain.
