I never got why Eddie Vedder was singing about being someone's daughter.

Re: Songs you are conflicted about

i like Pearl Jam but their entire first album is so cringe.

early Guns n Roses, too. but different, like, Axl used to be kind of a pedo i'm afraid. good for him that he's a glowing born again male feminist now, fighting his battles against all the enablers of patriarchy on twitter, day after day after day.

"Sweet Child" is a song specifically about his GF Erin Everly. They were both in their 20s when then started dating.

Yes I do. Among my favorite is an unreleased power ballad entitled I, Axl Rose, Fuck Children.

Re: Songs you are conflicted about

What about Aerosmith singing about girls in playgrounds in skirts on seesaws, and putting their "kitty in the middle of a swing" like they just don't care? Or Joan Jett singing about a 17-year-old boy standing by the juke box?

Re: Songs you are conflicted about

gross.

but that's not news. we all know that the whole industry is a cesspool of predators objectifying, sexualising, dehumanising and sexually exploiting women, girls and children. hell, our entire society is normed and conditioned that way. you can thank patriarchy for that.

how to cope with the fact that i have never met a straight man who isn’t into the sexual exploitation and fetishisation of young girls and doesn’t see a problem with it :(.

yall can miss me with that bullshit relativising rhetoric, exploitation is exploitation and i’ll make sure i be here forever uplifting them and spitting on their graves.

IF ANY OF THESE THINGS IM SAYING RESONATE WITH YOU MAYBE ITS TIME TO DO SOME WORK ON YOURSELF

was that the point you were trying to make, Lll?

Re: Songs you are conflicted about

I find a lot of it disgusting, including many lyrics in rap songs, the way they speak about women. It's vulgar, foul language is used, and so are derogatory words when referring to females.

I vehemently oppose sex with underage individuals. I find it appalling. I also think it's a powerplay, an abuse of boundaries and power dynamics. Many 14-, 15-, and 16-year-olds throw themselves at rockers and rappers, and many of the musicians take advantage of that. Just look at R. Kelly for a very good example of this misogyny and sex with minors over decades! It grosses me out.

You asked what my point was? Simply that context is also a consideration as is generation. There were and are times when singing about young love was simply a marketing ploy to appeal to the young target audience. That does not necessarily translate to anyone doing anything IRL.

What I don't get is there is no indication Axl EVER hinted at sex with underage girls. He used "child" the way people call their SO "baby".

There are plenty of despicable things Axl DID do back in the day without having to make another one up….

you gotta open your eyes, Jan.



the signs are all there pointing to Axl the ex-pedo, you just have to see them, really see them! do not be afraid to face an ugly truth, mah nigga

Finger Me

Re: Songs you are conflicted about

I agree with you. To the best of my knowledge, Axl wasn't involved in anything resembling pedo behaviour. As you pointed out, Axl got up to plenty in his day, and there's no need to embellish or make stuff up about his conduct.

I don't need convincing.

Precisely. This is why I say "context matters," as does interpretation. It's like when you hear the lyrics, "I used to love her, but I had to kill her….I had to put her six feet under, and I can still hear her complain." People think Axl's singing about killing and burying a woman when it's actually his dog.

There have been songs like this forever, just as you said. I think a lot of lyrics have just gotten more blatant and less about comparative feelings.

Or Jimi Hendrix wanting to kill his "old lady" for cheating.

Or Stevie Nicks with Edge of Seventeen? I love that song but lol…the dude sung about is almost 17.

Yes. That's another very good example!

My friend played this song on repeat on 9/11. I wonder if a lot of people did that.

Oh hi Ash!

Re: Songs you are conflicted about

This is undeniably a catchy song but it is somewhat tainted because of the whole lip-syncing thing.

Re: Songs you are conflicted about

I'd say the same about this. One of the very few QOTSA songs that I consider skipping.

Re: Songs you are conflicted about

Omg I love them. I rarely skip anything off their albums.

Re: Songs you are conflicted about



Viper - I Did 9/11

On one hand it's tasteless to have the man responsible for 9/11 rapping about it, on the other hand it's an absolute banger.
