The Fattest PI posted:Still, at least it's music they can sorta identify with. Not everyone really gives a poo poo about indie retard whinebag stuff like But not everyone looks for music they can identify with, a lot of people enjoy escapism Tom Waits is escapist for me, for the most part. The weirder he gets, the better.

Cars/driving/highways as a metaphor for escaping/freedom is by far his most common theme.

Beeswax posted:I'm over 30 and listen to The War on Drugs and have a sneaking suspicion that I should just give up and start listening to all these goddamn Rock Men like Springsteen and Neil Young and poo poo since I've lost my edge (heh) anyway. i would just do both. listen to everything that you enjoy and never stop digging for new stuff to play. don't care about who made it, or when it was made, or how others may judge u for listening/enjoying something. just do this all the time. with the way music is shared and put out there today its so easy to just check stuff out without much waste or commitment. i really love music.

"You got your Springsteen in my Waits!" "You got your Waits in my Springsteen!" Except that you shouldn't listen to the Springsteen version of this since he added an extra verse about dropping the kids off at school or some poo poo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-ROB8kI_fw
