Bono has said that music “has gotten very girly” in recent years, with hip-hop serving as “the only place for young male anger at the moment”.
The U2 frontman voiced the opinion during a new interview, with the 57-year-old lamenting the lack of “young male anger” in rock music in 2017.
Thanks. Read your post earlier today, just finished a 375 mile road trip home, will listen in a bit.
Lot of road time, FP! When you relax, you might enjoy the interview. I had watched in a while back and your post made me search for it again. He has a wonderful sense of humor - very dry. Incredible talent.
I always thought Bono was a poofter.

I just did! Once again, thank you very much for sharing. I must confess that I’ve always approached classical music, no, most music, kind of like barbecued ribs, in that, to my taste I like just about any chef’s take on ribs although I will say some are much better than others. Methinks I would be happy to eat at Rachel Podger’s restaurant as she served up a most tasty serving of Vivaldi !
I’ve been toying with the idea of starting a music ping list as the few we’ve had here have seemed to have vanished and it has been on of my joys to discover much new music thanks to fellow Freepers as well as attempt to share some of my favorites that my fellow FRiends may not have encountered. May I keep you in mind as a possible pingee as you certainly seem to have a well rounded musical background.
Do keep me in mind. Thank you :-)
One more for now. Vivaldi sacred music:
I rejoiced at the things that were said to me:
We shall go into the house of the Lord.
Our feet were standing:
in thy courts, O Jerusalem.
Jerusalem, which is built as a city:
that is compact together.
For thither did the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord:
the testimony of Israel,
to praise the name of the Lord.
Because their seats have sat in judgment:
seats upon the house of David.
Pray ye for the peace of Jerusalem:
And abundance for them that love thee.
Let peace be in thy strength:
and abundance in thy towers.
For the sake of my brothers and my neighbors:
I spoke peace of thee.
For the sake of the house of the Lord our God:
I have sought good things for thee.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son :
and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, now, and for ever:
world without end. Amen.
Laetatus sum in his quae dicta sunt mihi:
in domum Domini ibimus.
Stantes erant pedes nostri:
in atriis tuis Ierusalem.
Ierusalem quae aedificatur ut civitas:
cuius participatio eius in idipsum.
Illuc enim ascenderunt tribus, tribus Domini:
testimonium Israel
ad confitendum nomini Domini.
Quia illic sederunt sedes in iudicio:
sedes super domum David.
Rogate quae ad pacem sunt Ierusalem:
et abundantia diligentibus te.
Fiat pax in virtute tua:
et abundantia in turribus tuis.
Propter fratres meos et proximos meos:
loquebar pacem de te.
Propter domum Domini Dei nostri:
quaesivi bona tibi.
Gloria Patri et Filio :
et Spiritui Sancto.
Sicut erat in principio et nunc et semper:
et in secula seculorum. Amen.
