My request to specify music to reflect today's society was not, nor did I intend it to be music specific.
Since I see and analyze this society from the top to the bottom under a magnifying glass, I see it like it is; the top could care less about the bottom;"Raise yourself up by your bootstraps."
I saw an adult young lady from the Bronx in New York City, who had been cast into the spotlight, and could not even speak decent English. I could see she was aware of this, and uncomfortable speaking to the Nation on an award show, but they wouldn't let her go, and she did the best she could, which was horrible.
She was intelligent; I determined that from how she managed to get out of a hell hole, and succeed. How could a place with so many rich people fail her so miserably in the school system? (I am who I am)
Donald Fagan has acquired a unique fan club, of which I am a member.
"I'm Not The Same Without You"; a very different perspective.
I liked the music, but failed to see how it is a reflection of society; although I'm better off without you was a different perspective.
