why I love MM - Watson D'costa (In'glo'dian, 22years)

MARILYN MANSON>>> Deckin out in black costumes, sinister make-up and Tees reading "666". Mom, I'm going to listen to Satan music. Can u pik me up at 11o' clock?>>> "Goddam">>> Mother- f#@*>>> Sex is dead>>> Spit, cut, rub>>> Grass n LSd>> U'd love it all for the staged evil.

An American by birth, Anti- Christ by choice. The band's radiation is reflective from the names, literally. The first names of female rockstars and the last names, of serial murderers. Manson's act is a calculated attempt to take the two things mothers always tell children it ain't polite to talk about- religion and sex- and be as rude about them as possible. Ripping up a bible is a frequent stage trick. On stage Marilyn Manson looks like a long pale worm. He can't sing or write song lyrics, but is nonetheless enjoying a run as one of the hottest rockstars. Manson is a symbol of American pop culture's continued race toward depravity. His latest album titled Anti- Christ Superstar and his lyrics celebrate things like suicide, destruction, and disease. The iconography of his shows- the self- laceration, the back braces, and bizarre crutches, etc-- is a celebration of pain and perversity.
Why do i and a section of the country likes MM?!?!? Not jus for whats above. Niceness is the one value no one dares transgress. Exceptionally for Manson though. What Manson is about on a deeper level is the culture's premiere value; Hype. Manson denies promoting any values whatsoever; he's just for people being themselves. Manson mind's his own business. His fans instinctively say the same thing, fallin back on a tolerance defense that inevitably turns common sense on its head. MM decides to make music at times when he couldn hav had more obstacles. He walked on stage many times after receiving death threats. MM cannot live without doing what he wanted to do. So at the same time, he's willin to die for it. MM is an idealistic artist who wants to spend his time putting ideas into the world, which ends up fuckin him over. He's one OPTIMISTIC life on the planet.
Deliver what you want and how u want it. MM always just ends up violent, so extreme that he's got 300 or more scars all over him on him due to destroying equipments. Me, u, n evryone gets one step closer to the grave evry single day. MM actuated to me the fact about the sweetness and inevitablity of it. Will power. MM digs up bones, does drugs, and sleeps at the basement of a rat infested appartment. Manson has deep respect fro ppl who're bein a part of his work. Thats a very vital stuff that not most of the population can assert possessing.
Man's greatest fear is chaos. The first few people on earth needed no books, movies, games or music to inspire cold blooded murder. The day that Cain bashed his brother Abel's brain in, the only motivation he needed was his own human disposition to violence. We have all the examples around. Isn't killing just killing, regardless if its in Vietnam, Iran, Kargil, or nextdoor? Why do we justify one, just because it seems to be for the right reasons? Should there ever be a right reason? We applaud the creation of a bomb whose soul purpose is to destroy all of mankind and we grow up watching people's brains splaterred all over the floor. Unnoticedly, MM started his band as a criticism of these very issues of despair and hypocrisy. " I wasn afraid of dying as much as I was really afraid of getting my hair cut", says MM of his life at Ohio. Who's bad??
Deep down, most adults hate people who go against the grain. People tend to associate anyone who behaves differently with illegal and immoral activity. "I realized the most important thing for me to do is to JUsT BE ME", says Manson. All his deeds, are his. But to do wut u wanna c happening, requires havin the rightest mind with the key ingredients; style, view, n balls. Manson showed me how.
Wanna live your days your way, consider considering MARILYN MANSON. He's one real time inspiration for me. Wish he gets to Evan to straighten things better.

Cheers,
Watson.

Music; and how we listen today…or show off

Indian youth started following the theory of adopted differentiation in music also!

The In’glo’dians are going for more personalized music and relevant gadgets [… to listen music ie. ipod, mobile, Bluetooth earplugs etc…) whereas, Bharatiyas are aggressively “exhibiting” their music and musical belongings ( the homemade amplifiers, Nokia speaker phones, cracking loud speakers, mikes, woofers etc…).

Now putting the music aloud in car [and keeping the windows open!] is considered “cheap” unlike the earlier days…when it was a part of showing-off / dikhawa...the pride of owning an imported car and then modifying it with the higher decibel musical system which used to crack others eardrums while the car will whiz pass with open windows…o ya, a hot partner by the side or car full of drunken dudes…

now the scene is :
A bharatiya is walking in the street with mobile in hand, which is blinking lights and guzzling higher decible sound / music [this sound can appear as "noise" to the in'glo'dians] from some local FM channel...“sun bhai…my new guru mobile”...or a maxicab/auto / truck brusting the local soundtrack@ scratched CD / FM…

On the other hand, an in’glo’dian is jogging [at home/health club with glass walls/groomed garden] with the wireless earplug @ Bluetooth / ipod “my music, I will listen…who the hell u r…”

Sudhir's comment in Designindia yahoo group:

I like your point of view, didnt think of music like this before....and come to think of it...Many of us would want to show what we are reading, the volume size etc etc..and may of us will want to show what we own...I am sure there are more observations around. But I am definitely looking forward to use this.
