I find it kinda awesome that Juang is 15 years behind in music taste.

YGAA, I remember you saying once we're music twins. You're right, even if I don't have that song by them!

And I love listening to the "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" song dreamerhippie posted when it's raining, lol

Anyway, I love this song and who knew the guy singing would be so cute! haha. (the video is kinda funny, in a lame kinda way though)

Don't get me wrong it's not bad taste, I just haven't seen anything from this decade yet. He likes the classics. Can't blame him.

Speaking of which, this song isn't old but this guy sounds old school. This video doesn't do the song justice but here it is anyways.

Alejandro Escovedo - Always a Friend



Looking for a video of this song, I came across the fact that his parents were undocumented immigrants who crossed the border from Mexico. Immigration worms it's way into this thread. I had no idea until just now, honest.

Quote:

Also in 2005, Escovedo's song "Castanets" appeared on the iPod playlist of George Bush, prompting a three year self-imposed ban on live performances of the song. The song returned to Escovedo's live shows in 2008 along with an explanation for its absence
I like him even more now.

And you're the one complaining about personal attacks??????? Remember, that thread in the Suggestions section?

If you apologize in public, I will forgive you...I'm only making you to do it in public because you attacked me in public.


...i like using the word "public"

Juang you just want me to acknowledge you in public. That says something when you don't recognize a compliment when you see one.

Which now I'm going to post another song. This is really old and brings back memories.

Young MC - Bust a Move

Immortal Technique- Caught in a hustle.



[Verse 1]
They say the odds against me, are crooked and impossible
Like I was born with a hole in my heart is an obstacle
I left to die by the doctors, in the childrens hospital
But I never lose hope, success is psychological
The world is volatile and the street is my education
Shaping the nation, like the blueprint of a mason
While Shawshank record deals get you raped on occasion
So I'm Focused on my Economic Situation
I'm Like the little kids on T.V That dig through the trash
I hustle regardless of the way you talk shit and laugh
A lot of niggaz drop SCIENCE but they don't know the math
Because their mind is Narrower than the righteous path
It's funny how on the block niggaz will kill you for cash
But never raise the gun and cry out "Freedom at last."
The cold war is over but the world is still gettin colder
Atlas walking through the projects with the hood on my shoulders
I would like to raise my children to grow to be soldiers
But then the general, would decide when their life would be over
So I work hard until my personality split
Like the black panthers, into the bloods and the crips
They said I would never be shit, but now I sit and reminice
Like Yeshua, Ben Yousef flippin through Genesis
Ignorance is venemous, and it murders the soul
spreading like a virus running rampant, but out of control

[Hook]
So if I should ever fall and get caught in a hustle
Let them know that I died while I fought in a struggle
From the hoodrats to the rich kids lost in a bubble
Spray Painting on the streets and at the subway tunnels
Write it down and remember that we never gave in
The Mind of a child is where the revolution begins
So if the solution has never been to look in yourself
How is it that you expect to find it anywhere else

[Verse 2]
Immortal Technique in the streets, back on the hustle
cause three strikes will get you life for stuffin cracks in a duffle
Upstate behind steel gates intact in the scuffle
Razor blades stuck on the side of pencils, hacked to your muscle
But the emptiness is what bleeds you to death when it cuts you
And its the lawyers, not the inmates scheming to fuck you

Trying to fight the system from inside, eventually corrupts you
But thats what you get when you put a corporation above you
And it's the people that love you that seem to hurt you the most
Sometimes when they die you find yourself cursing their ghost
But you make success, nobody delivers your fate
Sometimes you give and you take
Since Prehistoric Vertibrates, crawled out of the lakes
And thats the truth about life
Or to do it to ghetto and your car, rims, and your ice
Because even though we survived through the struggle that made us
We still look at ourselves through the eyes of people that hate us
But I'm going to make it regardless of the trumped up charges
And semi-automatic barrages, that empty the cartridge
Post-Tramatically scar kids that try to be brave
Because niggaz backstab each other just to try to get paid
Turn cannibal like knights during the crusades
Afraid of responsibility; Addicted to greed
Beating their girl purposefully losing a seed
As if we were bound to the destiny we used to recieve

[Hook]
So if I should ever fall and get caught in a hustle
Let them know that I died while I fought in a struggle
From the hoodrats to the rich kids lost in a bubble
Spray Painting on the streets and at the subway tunnels
Write it down and remember that we never gave in
The Mind of a child is where the revolution begins
So if the solution has never been to look in yourself
How is it that you expect to find it anywhere else


I used to wonder(I used to wonder) about people who didn't believe in themselves
But Then I saw the way that they portrayed us to everyone else
That cursed us, then only see the worst in ourselves
blind to the fact the whole time we were hurting ourselves

I love to see those legs, skirt, and stockings. Not so much the purple hair.
