Im a free think, remember George Washington was always considered the "The First Rebel" and I have pondered over this question.Are some songs so politically incorrect that they should never be heard again??
In the sound track of the movie, Cabaret the Song Tomorrow Belongs To Me Stands Out.
It is a beautiful Song that is conected with a hideous evil. If you remember its sung on a Beautiful Day at a German Beergarten,when a single Singer Sings in a Clear Voice.
The Stag In the Forrest...
Consider. The most polular Song of the Spanish American War among American Troops in the Phillipines was a song sung to the tune of
Tramp Tramp The Boys Are Marching.
It Was Called Damm Damm The Filipinos
The song expressed the opinion of the rank and file American Solider who was sweating and dying in a jungle war to find and stamp out the Rebels and Insurgents who were fighting first against the Spanish and then the Americans.
There are many others.
My question is, are we intellectual mature enough to record and listen to songs that in their day reflected the moods and views that we find offensive.
And what about.... Springtime for Hitler?????????? When it First came out as a movie some people and critics were appalled. Now thirty years later its gone on to become a hit musical. But what about the music??
Grins Always....
