2: Another Brick In The Wall – Pink Floyd. “We don’t need no education, we don’t need no thought control.” It all seems to get a bit gloomy and serious by the time The Floyd get involved. Still, Waters’ tune and the accompanying animation and movie turned this into some kind of prog anthem for doomed youth. The innocent fondness, of which we are used to, is replaced by a strange haunting choir – and all of a sudden there’s a reason to repel education beyond the juvenile need of ‘getting kicks’.
Like Beyonce, JT broke away from N’Sync, another amazingly successful group from the 1990’s, only to achieve greater notoriety on his own. Though he only released one album in the 2000’s, Futuresexx/Lovesounds, that record was a defining moment for pop music of any decade. It catapulted JT to worldwide fame and established his dominance as a master of R&B. It’s hard to imagine pop music without his influence, which seamlessly assimilated the sounds of the 1970’s through the 2000’s and showed just how funky a white guy can be.
The reason I bring this topic up in the context of the Wizard of Oz, is to show you that even songs that were written back in 1939 were benefiting from the idea of contrast between sections. In previous articles I’ve talked about this same concept being used in today’s us pop hits.

16. “The Message” (1982). Grand Master Flash and the Furious Five. By infusing their verses with such powerful social commentary, they demonstrated the immense power of the rap style. The syncopated line of monosyllables, “Don’t push me ‘cause I’m close to the edge, I’m try-in’ not to lose my head,” was unprecedented, and the little laugh that followed it was truly haunting. With their virtuoso command of language, they did for rap music what Bob Dylan did for folk rock. The form was brought to complete commercial fruition 13 years later with Coolio’s “Gangster’s Paradise,” (1995).
The legendary bands in Japan are X Japan, duo B’z, Mr. Children, and also GLAY. X Japan is very famous among visual kei fans. X Japan toured around the world very often because they are noticed as the founder of Japanese Visual Kei Rock music.

So we had some good conversations about people that most people don’t often talk about. They don’t know about the Delmore Brothers and they don’t think of Gene Autry as a singer, you know? But Chet certainly did.
Written by Paul McCartney but John Lennon was the lead singer. This is quite unusual as in most Beatles songs the lead singer was also the primary songwriter except in the case of Ringo Starr (and also George Harrison in the early years) who usually sang covers or Lennon/McCartney songs.
13. “Living for the City,” (1973). Stevie Wonder. Profoundly significant both from a top hits and a social perspective. The use of synthesizers and the spoken interlude in the song gave it an innovative structure. The social commentary and spoken dialog led the way for the development of rap music later in the decade.
