When he was still trying... A stunning lyricist and conceptor (for want of a better word). His early stuff is fascinating

In France, Serge Gainsbourg - sadly, many singers took him as a model of coolness and mumble through their songs. GAinsbourg was brilliant in other ways.

Waits does use his rough voice in a roughly good way, unlike Dyaln.

The times of crisis were created by the person trying to change the rules. I'm not sure he should be rewarded for the mess.

I'm looking for anyone that supported the Iranian authorities. Can you help me with that? Apparently, you have some information that I don't.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion.

As Israel has a history of bombing refugee centres, hospitals and civilian infrastructure, you can remove them from the "wouldn't" list.

Is there a verb called "underbusssing"? There should be.

If he wanted NATO help he would have asked for it. Launching a war of choice because of a treaty he destroyed does not seem to motivate people to send their sons and daughters.

Indeed.

We're talking a lot about Ai and robots these days. So what about the dudes that created the man-machine for music back in the seventies already? a-lyric.com/2026/03/book... #kraftwerk #songwriting
