Here's a connection that has been lingering in the background for a bit. This WTC all has songs with Message in the title. Genre didn't matter. I restarted this because of the Tackhead picks over the last week or two since they were part of the band behind Grandmaster Flash, who obviously has a great message song. It's the one rap song that I can (mostly) recite by heart. I was better when I was younger and I miss a few lines nowadays, but I can usually get all of it. I'm pretty sure no one but me knows Couch Flambeau, but I played that song on my radio show way back when fairly often. The rest are just message songs I like. Some more than others. For example Journey (except for early Journey) is not big in my house. But I put it in anyway. Sue me. You can tell from the cover that I am an android user. Yes, I do use Textra daily.

Didn't know Couch Flambeau, you guessed rightly. And since I do not use Android What's Insta Face TicketyTock Snap, Etcetra, I do not know that Textra at all.
ReplyDeleteThere are loads of messages, from Borgesia to Cymande. From Gyedu-Blay Ambolley to Terveet Kadet. From Ozimba to, well you find enough yourself. I will leave you one:
