Rock Music And The Devil?

[retrorich]

Sympathy for the Devil
The Rolling Stones

Please allow me to introduce myself
I’m a man of wealth and taste
I’ve been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man’s soul and faith
And I was ’round when jesus christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what’s puzzling you
Is the nature of my game

I stuck around st. petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank
Held a general’s rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what’s puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah

I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
I shouted out,
Who killed the kennedys?
When after all
It was you and me
Let me please introduce myself
I’m a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached bombay
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what’s puzzling you
Is the nature of my game.
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what’s confusing you
Is just the nature of my game

Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails
Just call me lucifer
’cause I’m in need of some restraint
So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I’ll lay your soul to waste, um yeah
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, um yeah
But what’s puzzling you
Is the nature of my game.

I'm wondering if someone can tell me the link that some people think there is between rock music and the devil?

I'm just wondering why some people think, that the bands I like, Pink Floyd, The Who, Led Zeppelin, etc., are of the devil?

rock music is an expression, so even if it is against christian teachings, it is good for society because they can have their voice

now then, here in england we have the music of the chav - which lyric wise is more appauling than most rock music :tsk: :banghead3

but a question on definition, does meatloaf count as rock? oh and snalepace, thou shalt not save your yuking for my meatloaf dinner, y'a hear me :biglaugh:

 

[jeffrey]

Meatloaf... Imagine your father naming you that. What was his sister's name? mashed potatoes? And his dog was named John, right? :biglaugh:

I thought this argument was laid to rest in the 1950's. Has it been re-surfacing again?

Goodness, where have you been all this time ? in the 1950's, that was just small fry, now, the devil is making a frontal attack.

Electric Gueetars ? don't let them fool you; they are weapons of the devil himself. You may think that music emanates from these weapons of devilry (actually I'm not even sure on that ), but it is the subliminal cry of "Down with all who worship God" which is the real message being pumped into the minds of the young.

There is a way though, for good to win! This is a secret and must not be passed on, but God has provided us with the tools with which to beat the devil; by using a band which at present is building it's own good reputation..........nothing wrong with 'The Prodigy'.

This band was created by good people to fight the devil; you can tell, below, by their fine words and messages, as portrayed by their angelic tones........
information: http://www.xlrecordings.com/prodigy/ The Prodigy crossed over to shock the mainstream with an incendiary live experience that approximated the original atmosphere of the British rave scene even while leaning close to arena-rock showmanship and punk theatrics. It was musician / producer Liam Howlett whose studio wizardry launched the Prodigy to the top of the charts, spinning a web of hard-hitting breakbeat techno with king-sized hooks and unmissable samples. Despite electronic music's diversity and quick progression during the 1990s, Liam modified the Prodigy's sound sparingly; swapping the rave-whistle effects and ragga samples for metal chords and chanted vocals, which proved the only major difference in the band's evolution from their debut to their worldwide breakthrough with their third album The Fat of the Land. Even before the band took its place as the premiere dance act for the alternative masses, The Prodigy had proved a consistent................(make your own mind up) Some of their more angelic pieces...................

yea, my dad came into my room while i was out and had the audacity to take my speakers, so i stole his (what i concider to be) dreadful CDs, and so he stole mine, so i brought some more speakers, hid them in the attic, and played some of my CDs which are regularly hidden from my brothers prying hands - this was about a week ago and he's still looking for the sound :biglaugh: MOXIOUS!!!! Knockout

Ooooh Mike, you sound so much like my own son; would you like me to adopt you ? I am missing the teenage trauma, now that both my sons have left home......

Umm... Good point! (She's reading this as I type... I just got hit! THANKS! LOL!)

There music is hard to find over here. We tried to even order a cd, had trouble doing oven that. My wife loves 'Scooter' too, if you ever heard of him.

What I want to know Jgallandt is who the heck is Brian? You are a forward thinker, you devil. Admittedly, my little lady has threatened to trade me in, but I have never thought of getting her a "Brian"... Good plan... I'll check the mall.

 

[jonny]

I lose my food, ND blows coke out his nose, .. As the song "It's not unusual to".. and "I write the songs that make the whole world sings"....Plays in my head.. SOMEBODY HELP ME! EXORCISE THE TOM AND BERRY DEMONS FROM MY HEAD! UGH! Where's Bob Larson when you need him? :biglaugh:

Am I the only one who started doing the Carlton after reading this post?

"It's not unusual to be loved by anyone..."

 

[Bishka]

Absolute nonsense. These bands are far too boring to be work of Satan. Twelve minutes instrumentals and inane yapping. I like to think Satan's a punk rocker.

Boring?

 

[Buttons*]

God may very well be a punk rocker... with songs like "kill the poor" "Too Drunk to ****" and "MTV get off the air" ... wait a moment, isnt MTV supposed to be satan? (CONTRADICTION!)

One of my teachers told me that if you watch MTV, and someone opens your head (which... i dont realy understand this logic... AT ALL) that black smoke will come out... (and THAT moment right there ladies and gentlemen, is when i realized that I didn't want to be "christian" anymore)

 

[Yerda]

Boring? you got to be kidding me.

Must be my short attention span.

with songs like "kill the poor" "Too Drunk to ****" and "MTV get off the air"...

The Dead Kennedys are a band I can get excited about.

Meatloaf... Imagine your father naming you that. What was his sister's name? mashed potatoes? And his dog was named John, right? :biglaugh:

Have you seen him in Fight Club? He's the hormonal guy with big. . . Breasts.

His Name, was John. Paulson.

If you like Electronica, I'd recommend LTJ Bukem. Man's the best ambient D'n'Bist I've heard. British though you might have to import from somewhere. I think Amacon's got most of his stuff.

the devil invented elevator music. deal with it.

Hehe the devil hasn't reached us in England; no elevator (or as we say, 'lift' ) music. But I know why...........'cos we don't go in to buildings tall enough to need to be entertained whilst in the lift..............:biglaugh:
