Re: I wish it was just the music that had gone downhill!
I think so, lindo, slipping into darkness again............and boy's usually treat women the way their father's do............but girls follow their friends and idiot boys........and they appear to be simply grateful for any attention, good, bad or indifferent.

Even the dolls look like man-eaters. I mean who would design a doll with fishnet stockings? I have no idea how to handle my son when he is a teenager, it is going to be impossible to raise him as a gentleman when the pop culture is drilling into children the pimp mentality. What happened to feminism and women's emancipation? We are back to were we started: mere sex objects, and the degradation is starting from elementary school!

Re: TAPS. It is terrible, and I thought that my 60s stuff was bad, but
if it talked about sex or something, it was always with love and affection. Now, it's about the mechanics of it and then you go away.............

I don't know about this one because I haven't heard it, but most of the time in today's "music" I can't even tell what the lyrics are without looking them up on the internet. Quite often I'm appalled when I find out what is being sung.

Re: Gee, and "Icecream And Cake" wasn't bad enough..

Re: I think that kids are in charge of the music, sans supervision........
blasted into the stands, erasing conversation, until the game started......songs about big mattresses in their cribs, etc. Pretty darned bad as little kids were running everywhere and, and and and it was just gross stuff for general consumption.
Maybe if you had been there, my family would have done more than just look at each other in disgust. We could have jumped up and kicked over the cd player, or crushed the iPod, huh??

Gee, and "Icecream And Cake" wasn't bad enough..
When my daughter was ten in the jr peewee cheerleaders they had a cheer about "I like the boiys, the boys who play rough...(growl)". We sort of let their coach know that it, and the pactice of "serenading" the practiciing ten year old players, was objectionable.
