MARK'S NOTCAST Ep 374 : "Can you remember when music became a way of life?" 7 April 2024
Thanks to @runoutgrooves274 who asks "Can you remember the moment when music stopped being background noise and became a way of life?". I can remember the exact song.
Also @bnhli7190 has a question, which gets answered at the end!

“West End Girls” and “True Faith” were incredibly important in the shaping of my musical taste. 🇺🇸 🇬🇧❤️🎶
Hooray. You chose my question. Thanks Mark. Top quality content as ever. Thank you.

It's always nice to hear that!
I wouldn't dream of boring you with the an explanation of my music oddysey but it does run roughly parallel to yours. Some power points if you like......The black hole O.S.T by John Barry must not be overlooked in the fantastic soundtrack category. My obsession with anything that came out of ZTT records and by pure chance one day, picking up a copy of Tin drum by Japan and I was sucked in for the rest of my life. A synth music festival held in Stafford of all places, rammed the final nail of obsession home. Thanks for sharing your story, peace as always. Steve

That Black Hole soundtrack is amazing. It's one of my favourite films. I have the DVD, soundtrack LP, novelisation, and comic book adaptation.
I spent $10,000 in the last part of last year,would have spent more but ran out of things to buy - have moved to buying from stores online and band web sites, have a bunch of pre orders, Pet Shop Boys, Garbage, Eels, Air, Bowie this week I brought a copy of "Ghost" that NIN thing the box set version just because I didn't have it, I don't need or want it and probably will never listen to it, It will jion all the other Box Sets that are really starting to pile up.
Is music still a way of life today, or has it been reduced to background noise

@@markreed4543 Absolutely, I just feel that today's artists just don't have the same artistic impact as their predecessors, especially when it comes to rock. Great video.

@@theloid Some of the newer acts are great, I find that I change and move through life, I find that some of the lyrical concepts not things I really connect with. If rock acts songs were mostly about knackered old men, I might connect with them more! :)
