However, his mere point was to reiterate to you that music even when one ponders with words, the more and more life goes on--there will never be any universial definition to define music as a factual entity through one specific and concise mannerism. Because it's impossible because of the many evolutions it is and will take. Just because new genres of music emerge, and it may not be the same way it was 50 yrs ago--or even how you were, it doesn't mean it isn't what it intended to be --which is music. No matter the genre, no matter the type--no matter the form--no matter the style; music is music. And Despare and urge I'm with you on this one.

Have you read ANY of my posts? I never once mentioned diction or interpretation of diction. Perhaps you have me mixed up with some crazy dialogue inside your head.

And I agree with you- what's music is music. And what isn't, isn't.

Yes I read your posts. You and Despare weren't arguing and comparing each other's definitions? And evaluating and interpreting them?

tapping a tune on a tabletop is still music

it's just not the kind of music that people would pay to listen to.

Yes I do. But instead of going off on this small tangent of a dispute with me, I want to know the response to the counterclaims made by urge and Despare.

I don't think you do- because you used it incorrectly.

And to reply to the ACTUAL topic of this thread...

They do. I have personally met and seen many black people who are into horror. And the initiation started from the 70s exploitation flicks I believe - blaxploitation (sp?) flicks to be exact.

Not to mention the leads of the original Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead.

But yeah, horror of the 70s shaped their love of the genre. I say at least 65-70% of all black people do love their ample dose of horror, in any way or other.

My 2 cents in.


And now, ladies and gentlemen, back to the "music"al debate...
