The Dark Side Of Music.

As promised I’m going to talk about boy band and girl groups.

I seem to be the only person in the world with a problem with them, everyone thinks that I’m over reacting, and maybe you will too.

One thing that annoys me about them is that they think that they are talented rock stars. Jimi Hendrix played guitar with his teeth, Busted jumped up and down. And didn’t even play whilst doing it. No contest really.

I also have a problem with five men gyrating on a stage in front of young girls aged nine to fourteen. That’s very close to paedophilia in my eyes, and it should be stopped.

No doubt you have noticed the shocking and degrading publicity photo of TAKE THAT at the start of my post, feel free to refer back to this picture at anytime whilst reading, just in case you feel that you begin to disagree.

The lyrics of these boy bands are shocking too. They speak of subject matters such as sexual acts and a fake sense of romance, that if spoken in a movie would get a 15 certificate and would be shown after nine pm on television.

How can this be allowed with the current sense of mawkishness on the subject of paedophilia? In 2001 a satirical comedy was aired on channel four, called Brasseye.
Brasseye had gained infamy in 1996 when first aired, for causing knee jerk reaction by the British public on the subjects like sex, drugs and animal abuse. The morning after the late night television comedy was aired, the British public awoke to newspaper articles and reports slamming how shocking this show was. This “knee jerk reaction” was so quick I wonder whether most of the articles were written before the show was even aired.
The only people that publicly defended the programme was the NSPCC who campaign against child abuse, they thanked the makers of Brasseye for forcing the issue out into the open air. I agree.

To quote Chris Morris the writer and presenter of Brasseye “we have become a nation confused.” The daily star had an article on the brasseye special slamming it, but the page adjacent showed an article commenting on how big Charlotte Church’s breasts were getting, she was only fourteen at the time.

A year later everyone in the country went looking for two female twelve year-old Manchester United fans. They disappeared for nearly two weeks after a barbeque one summer Sunday afternoon in Soham, and in the mean time every news report showed updates of no news until they are found! Not realising that with every news report reduced the chances of the girls being seen alive tenfold. Sadly the two Girls were found in shallow graves in a nearby wood almost two weeks later. The person involved was arrested and his partner (who to this day we still don’t know what part if any she played in the crime) had eggs pelted at her by angry mobs created by the media led mourning that followed.

Girl groups also annoy me as these no-talent whores are allowed to throw sex in the faces of their audience, and they also have no moral standard as to what age group they do it to.

My next-door neighbours imitate dance moves from these music videos out on the street, its disgusting, and they are so young I doubt that they know that it is provocative or even what its meant to be provoking.

When I was at high school in the mid early to mid nineties. Several girls in my year so taken with Take That they carved the double T logo into their arms with the blades from pencil sharpeners. Needless to say I was shocked that girls of this age could do this. If this is one influence of boy band's effect on the youth of the U.K what are the others? Lets not forget the U.K has the highest teenage pregnancy rate in Europe.

Take another look at the TAKE THAT picture if you think that I’m loosing you in my plight somehow.

Also my neighbour’s children play ball games on the road outside my house as opposed to the 20 acre park down the road, when asking the parents why they let them play in such a dangerous environment, their reply was that “there might be naughty men on the park”. Of course my instant reply was “well there might be cars on the road” why does this nation have such a sense of irrationality and mawkishness? Why do parents prefer their children to have an increased chance of being knocked over and killed by a car, than an unchanging chance of being sexually abused by a “naughty man”

Lets tie up all the confusion. But before you do, take one more deep breath and refer back to that awful picture at the start of this post.

If you are genuinely worried about your children having their innocence stolen. Then you should campaign to have all these boy band and girl groups banned and their lyrics edited to suit the way of life of its audience. And allow your children to experience their own lives the way they want with your own unique parental guidance not that of the record companies and band managers.

And if you are in a boy band and would like to be a remembered as a rock star, I can suggest that you die young and soon in a puddle of your own blood and vomit.
