  • You should've listened to Stravinsky then.

    You've never heard any reagge, have you?
    There's nothing deep about reggae lyrics. They are simple words, describing simple world, simple hopes. Sometimes simple things like making love to the woman. Nothing pseudo-intellectual there.

    No I haven't, I don't want to because it sounds shit and it is boring, I was referring to the Sex Pistols you posted earlier.

    Lyrics which "pretend to be deep":
    *Spinning cages for her pleasure weaving chains to hold the prize
    Magic moments with the jailer all on fire and then he dies
    Eat your heart out you've been a bad bad girl you've been hungry all of your life yeah
    We speed across emotions and then we lose our hold
    We turn on wings of passion that we can't control no
    And all the promises of springtime turned to lies so cold
    But I'm stronger than you know and I've come to let you go
    Go eat your heart out you've been a bad bad girl you've been hungry all of your life so eat your heart out *
    (DIO)

    Lyrics which don't pretend anything:
    Because punauny to mek yuh happy
    Punauny to mek yuh sad
    Punauny it ave a owna but it dont wear a tag
    Punauny inna panty nuh wear inna bag
    Wi nuh bow to punauny it nuh wear a military badge
    Yuh get inna punauny dat can swalla a hog
    Stand up and work mi fren nuh gwaan like a cowad
    Put har foot upon yuh shoulda raise punauny high like a flag
    Skin it out wide an kill it wid stab
    Punauny come here to wash by soap an rag
    If yuh nuh wash di punauny good it stinka dan dead hog

    (Shabba Ranks)

    Dio is over the top bollox .. you can't take it seriously because it is so OTT. When some guy is playing his tits off on guitar and the bloke is talking about a demon dragging a priest into the sea .. how the hell can you

    Simple Hopes and All this shit ... Don't really care about it .. .it isn't soulful or anything like that it is just fecking annoying ... it like listening to a mate blub his heart out about some girl ... annoying as fuck ... as thus why I kill such conversations quickly. Maybe if he wasn't making some crap Reggae, he could be sorting out the problem ... if he is a successful reggae Guy he obviously got loads of dosh and doesn't really care.
