Female, er, so sorry please excuse me. Once a hippy always a hippy. Just because we wear short hair and work for the government doesn't mean a thing.What's wrong with peace and love? There's nothing naive about it, nor is there a contradiction in participating in the world of finance:we have a responsibility to provide for our families.
Today's music sort of baffles me. There is just as much talent as ever before but the sausage factory seems intent on submerging it beneath a Niagara of mediocrity. There is real music out there but you have to search for it. Mostly all Ihearis a drum machine, a sample or twoand a lot of yelling, a sort of democratization of talent wherein ANYONE can make a hit record if they are pretty enough on video.
Believe it or not, opera now appeals to me. It is an improbable art form but loaded with talent and front to back it gets the very best treatment in terms of musicianship, recording technology and product presentation.
