I can't listen to that at work.

Does it have the remixed sound of you being propelled through a ceiling panel?

Nobody throws me through the ceiling anymore because of woke

I remembered this one while musing about the Resistance 2.0:

Jefferson Airplane - Volunteers (with Lyric)

And, it's not lost on me that the "This generation" in the following lyrics quickly lost interest in the "got to revolution" when the Selective Service System (SSS) lost interest in them:

"One generation got old
One generation got soul
This generation got no destination to hold"

This kind of resistance is cyclical, and the "This generation" also got old really fast. I'm smiling as I think back on it all, and I'm not wasting my time mourning over inevitable change. There are more important things happening right now that need my attention.

I like the dumb garage band vibes, would put on again if I'm in the mood for the genre :fap:

I was awakened by a phone call at 4:30 AM this morning, and couldn't get back to sleep. So, I made the mistake of checking out the latest news on the internet, and immediately saw yet another story on The New New Jersey Drone Conspiracy!

While reading the strange story, this old song popped into my head:    The Kinks - Destroyer (Official Audio)

As I rarely sleep more than 3 hours at a time, I typically find myself wide awake at odd hours of the night. And, not being able to do much without making noise that would wake up the rest of the household, or the neighbors, I usually end up reading, or doing something on the computer. So, about two weeks ago, when I found myself wide awake and bored at 3:30 AM, I signed onto YouTube, in the hope of finding something of interest.

Somehow or other, a music video of the song "Over the Hills and Far Away" by Nightwish popped up on my YouTube homepage. Thinking it was a cover of the song of the same name from the Sharpe TV series, out of sheer boredom I decided to give it a listen. (A member of my European extended family had a major guest role in one of the episodes, so I'm a fan.)

Of course, the Nightwish song wasn't at all what I expected, but I thought it was pretty damn good! And so, I started binge watching more of the band's stuff right then and there. And, after learning that Nightwish's musical genre is "symphonic metal," I started searching for, and listening to/watching other bands who play music of the same genre, like Within Temptation.

So, I've been binge watching even more "symphonic metal" videos at odd hours of the night ever since. As of right now, my favorite lead singers are Tarja Tununen, and Floor Jansen. But, I hope to find others in the genre who approach their levels of talent.
