I want to curl up and fall asleep...Right bloody now...only problem is that I'm so damned overtired that I'll be awake for atleast another hour or so...I really think someone should shoot me and put me out of my misery...any takers?
So today they assigned me my multigenre project thingers and I decided to do music's influence on society...specifically using Marilyn Manson, Bono from U2, System of a Down and Eminem to demonstrate each one's views on the current situations around the world...I know there's like a million bajillion freakin' artists doing that but those are the first few that came to mind....Honestly, if you listen to some of Eminem's stuff, you hear about the poverty in the inner city, President Bush's lack of response to said poverty ect...listening to SoaD's Boom and BYOB you hear things like "Everytime you drop the bomb you kill the god your child has borne" and "Why don't presidents fight the war? Why do they always send the poor?". The stupid librarian at the school called their music a publicity stunt but Mrs. Lennox and I seem to think differently, it almost looks like they are using their image to draw people to their music...Marilyn Manson is a wicked example...CRAZY MAKE UP ATTRACTS PEOPLE...or atleast it seems to....
Okay you know what, I'm going to stop babbling now because I'm driving myself fucking crazy. Goodnight everyone and I hope you all have a wonderful night...I plan on sleeping...

I think it's more the controversy that attracts people to Manson's music.
