So..imagine that it's 1985 listening to this song on Walkman headphones driving a Volkswagen Type III down Interstate 80, in the hot Summer with windows down, and almost getting squished by tractor trailers flying by.

Why take such risks? I had to drive to a wedding with the promise of meeting single women and I was ready to dance to this song at the reception! The only problem was that I smelled like gasoline...typical problem of the Type III.

Those have got to be some of the most insipid lyrics ever produced.

Yeah, they're not especially profound, but that is the chorus you quoted; you could take the choruses from hundreds of celebrated and/or legendary songs out of context and denigrate them. Did you read any of the other lyrics? Surely, it's not Marcel Proust, but his records were kind of tiresome anyhow, especially that "experimental" stuff he did with Mungo Jerry.

That's what the winsome Kate Bush, with her lovely soft SE accent, was saying in an interview on a radio arts programme two evenings ago. She was lamenting that albums are a dying art form, and I share that lament. I can't help seeing it as akin to news items on TV being now condensed to 10-second 'sound bites', tweeting, texting and the like. Not 'dumbing down', as the reactionaries would have it, but a fragmentation of lived experience driven by an increasingly frenetic 24/7 'lifestyle' where we only have short snatches of time in which to 'consume' music or art or news, itself a product of individualistic atomisation driven by consumer and finance capitalism. Or maybe I'm abstracting too much and reaching for connections. Whatever, we seem to have less and less time to enjoy things.
To quote the cartoonist Steve Bell, himself paraphrasing the poet William Henry Davies:
What is this life, full of care
If we have no time
to stand around like farts in a trance, john

Fred, no time to read all this.

This would have been really nice had they played the rhythm guitar on a Martin acoustic, hired someone who knew how to bring the best out of that instrument, ran it through a tubehead, and slowed the tempo down a hair.

New Bohemians was a 3-piece art-rock band on the local club circuit in Dallas in the mid-80s. I was in a local band on the same circuit at the time. They had a small but loyal following. Edie was at a gig one night and being a bit tipsy started heckling the band, who went back at her saying something to the effect of "if you think you can do better, jump up here. She did, killed it, and the rest is history. She wasn't a professional singer at the time. She joined NB, they added a guitar player, and put out the first album, which at the time was a pretty good offering in the mix of crap out there.

So...as the band said to her...if think you can do better, get up there.

is merely an exercise in emptiness, Grasshopppper. Your anguished little opinions are the wellspring of desire and aversion and just make you suffer. All that matters is what is IN THE GROOVE, DUDES! (May I call you "Dudes?"). Maybe the only way we can settle this is to climb into the Time Tunnel!

Hey, I just got back- here's the report: The Rolling Stones "Satanic Majesties Request" LP was freakin' great, totally beloved by all. But most of the the folks back there I talked to were under the influence of some wicked good drugs! Form your own conclusions.
