  1. I'm here to say I have my own reasons to update Classic Rock, and that's the change in technological society. The first change would be updating tough stud lyrics into the feminist age, and tough stud lyrics are easier to work with as singing them out. Changing the terms of technology means changing almost any previous lyric. Expecting to hear rap means being able to rap it out, when rock stars used to be about shouting out the name of the city they're in, even if they're wrong. And what about bombast, where you feel the bass in your gut? North Americans are used to seeing Dancing With The Stars show, where people dance to music with rhythm. Modern music is hip-hop and raggae influenced, what are only slower and more laid back beats and rhythms. You got me thinking. For artists, computer art became "clip art". Clip music doesn't do it for me, but I don't have anything else. Signals, that's all what most of it is.
