Float On Revolution

Writing about music is difficult.

I love music, but i feel like the meaning of music is impossible to put into words.

But I'll try, because it's my grade.



My favorite song has to be "Float On" by Modest Mouse.

I linked to the video on YouTube, which is funny, because this is the first time that i have actually seen the music video.



i love this song for a couple of reasons:

a) It just sounds amazing. I think the musical theory of this song is just great. I can listen to this song over and over and not get tired of it.

b) It's got a good message. When everything is going wrong, don't worry. we'll all float on alright, even if things get a bit too heavy, we'll all float on alright.



there isn't really much else i can say about Float On, and so i will talk about a song so i can get some more length out of this.



"Revolution" by The Beatles
I linked to the better version of the song.
I really like this song because it is always relevant.
This song is basically explaining to everyone that everything is going to be fine, there is no need to cause a commotion.
It has a lot of good one liners about protesters that i find funny, and very true.
"If you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao, you ain't going to make it with anyone, anyhow."
This song was written during the Vietnam War.
A time when everybody was protesting something, anything.
The Beatles pretty much just told everybody to calm down, everything will be fine.
That really makes me happy.
I think it's funny when I see people protesting wearing Beatles merchandise. They are obviously oblivious.
For that matter, i think it's even funnier when people are wearing Che Guevara shirts. Because they obviously bought them from somewhere. The irony of this is probably my favorite type of irony.

I got off on a little bit of a tangent there. This must be how Seth Macfarline feels.
oh, burn.

End.
