I find myself particularly attracted to songs with clever lyrics. Maybe it's the poet in me, but I think it's really the only mainstream poetry now a days. Perhaps I should be thankful. There would be no market for my kind of strange poetry if there were no songs. and truly this would be a terrible a terrible world with out songs. There would always be music, there is no way the world would exist without it. Music is one of those things in life that are constant. there is truly music in everything. The chirp of birds, the drone of bees, the wind in the trees, rain against rooftops and the ground, the crashing of waves against the shore, even the clap and rumble of thunder. These are nature's soundtrack. Aren't we lucky humanity figured out how to make music? That's just how brilliant we are, we figured out how to pull animal skins tightly over hollowed out gourds and strike them with sticks to crate drums. We hollowed out reeds and bones and drilled holes in them to force air through them to make flutes. Then we got smarter and started working with brass and figured out that they made the sound different. And we pulled strings across wood and strummed them or pulled bows across them and vibrations made music. And least we forget, we always had our voices. Brilliant is the person who figured out to sustain a tone to create a pleasurable sound. Then Harmony came along. Eventually they figured out to put poetry together with the tones and created songs. Music evolved and changed just as humans did. You want to see a good case for evolution, look at music.
