    Classical music, contrary to myth, wasn't a music for the rich.
    “I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
    - John 13:34-35 (NRSV)

You see, if our beloved anti-elitist (which, like antifascism and anti-Christ, is pretty much like elitism, except from whole 'nother perspective) happens to get idea that classical music is good rebellious (must remember to use the correct Snapcase terminology here), he might actually start listening to it, and then we have another form of music ruined by his far-out wacky theories and attempts to keep his view of music patched together to somehow look sensible.
      I have no problem with anyone disliking classical music for valid reasons--they just don't like the sounds, they find it "boring" or whatever. That's personal opinion, and that's fine. I dislike most music, I'd say, for the same reasons.

      But to promote blatant fallacies as reasons behind it is what riles me. Look at the poster boy for classical music, Beethoven. He was a rebel! He openly sympathized with the French Revolution. He wrote his 3rd Symphony in honor of it, and dedicated it to Napoleon, whom he viewed as a hero of the revolution. When Napoleon crowned himself Emperor, Beethoven felt betrayed and furiously struck out the dedication, renaming the symphony "Eroica."

            The Stone, Dreaming Tree, and Crush by Dave Matthews all do that to me, and they're all right in a row, #7,8,9 on BTCS...

                Everyone who likes upbeat dance music should go download a song named "Dam Dariram" (don't get the KOG Mix though)

                I have yet to tire of it

                Once you listen to it once, you'll have it on repeat!

                    double login? You're claiming one of the first 8 people to register on Apolyton had a DL before the 10th person registered
                    It still amazes me that 1 is still a settler.

                            That's a cool song, Dal, although it's uncommon to be this kind of song

                              I've been here for forever and a day. About once every year, I start reading Apolyton again, and I post. Hehe, I go through phases. I'll prolly be around for a lil bit, then fade away for a looong time. Then I'll be back again.
