Further to yesterday’s post, yes, every man’s death diminisheth me and I have no personal animus for the man. But just now I finished listening to Social Distortion’s “Somewhere Between Heaven and Hell” and it occurred to me that every song on that album is filled with infinitely more energy and emotion than anything I’ve ever heard from Michael Jackson, and the fact that the latter has sold millions is a terrible indictment public musical consumption. And I say this as a man who has, under the influence, gleefully danced to “ABC”.
