“Everything that needs to be said has already been said. But, since no one was listening, everything must be said again.” – Andre Gide
Oh hello, I’m not cool anymore
I’m not sure that I ever was
I tried my best to be myself
Because, because, because
It’s impossible to be cool at fifty
Forty and thirty too
Cool is just for the kids
I’ll never be as cool as you
The free spirit will be ‘a contradiction of his today.’
Scott Clifton, paraphrasing Nietzsche

When I were a lad….as in my profile picture…my best friends were a mod, a new romantic, a greebo (look it up), a skinhead and various other motley crews…we loved each other and hated each other’s musical interests. The first Specials album, the first Jam albums, the first Crass albums, the first Iron Maiden albums, the first Slits, first Cardiacs etcetc – they were “punk rock to me, Mr Narrator”. I sincerely hope that every generation since feels the same whether it is Less Than Jake, Skrillex, Blink 182 or something I’m too uncool to be in the loop for.
