When Did the Music Change?

Early morning gym routine...

biking, weights, walking, ellipsis - any combo of these or any one of these....

And, while doing the above, listening to a book on tape or reading.

But, today, there was a time when I didn't have the head set on, so I was FORCED to listen to the music being piped over their LOUD, LOUD, LOUD speakers.

And this is the truth; it sounded just like a person screaming for

HELP!  

in a 911 call!

 If you had played them side-by-side, you would not have known the difference...

plea for help, screaming banshee music.

It made me so sad for my grandchildren and the music they are exposed to and listen to. In our home growing up, we listened to a variety of music; so our children like folk, pop, a little country.

But, their children are listening to and loving what is being played today; and it is NOT music; it is loud screaming; swearing; bad-mouthing parents, teachers, old people, the establishment, America, religion, God; well, you get the idea.

And, I was so incredibly sad.

I love music.  I love to sing along at the top of my lungs, I love to hum a tune, to be enthralled by GOOD music.

And, it just makes me wonder;

WHEN DID IT ALL CHANGE!?!?!??!?!?!?
