Have we replaced our old gods with new musical gods? Places like this are full of very interesting stuff about what the new gods are up to. These gods are a little easier to communicate with than the traditional gods, they sing to us, they sleep with each other, they get stoned, arrested, shot, divorced, they get themselves into places we can only dream of, they give us something to look up to. The new gods have lots of power and some of them try to save the world or feed the world and we look further up to them. They write songs about the emotional things that move us. Its not just music either there are sporting gods as well and many others. I wonder if they realise how many people are praying to them and what that means I wonder if they want the job? They do their thing and we pay for it and hang off every word, try to figure out what makes them tick in the hope that its the same thing as us or something similar. They get to play music and make heaps of money. Sounds like a good plan to me but then I like planting the garden and moving the cows, watching my son playing football and lots of other stuff too but I still keep writing songs and secretly deep down inside I hope one day I might be a new god. Anyway heres my Christmas song to cheer you up........................... knot Hey by the way if anyone wants to have the whole "Yeah Nah" CD in electronic version just let me know and I will cyber post it to ya email me at murrayz@clear.net.nz
