Songs That Capture a Time
What songs most effectively capture their time? Capture the events or culture or frame of mind at that time? Here's a couple:
CSN & Y's Ohio: "Tin soldiers and Nixon's coming..." Chicago's Dialogue (Parts I & II): "Don't you feel repression just closing in around?" "No, the campus here is very very free." Rod Stewart's Do Ya Think I'm Sexy: "If you want my body and you think I'm sexy come on sugar let me know" Ben Folds Rockin' The Suburbs: "i take the checks and face the facts that some producer with computers fixes all my sh!tty tracks" There's gotta be thousands of these - songs you can listen to and know exactly when they came out. How about some more? |
