Hey! You replied! I'm glad. Hmmm...instrumental. What are your favorite instruments? And do you have a favorite music genre? I'm thinking I remember seeing many of your posts in the metal thread.
A vegan activist and musician, Will Tuttle, who wrote "The World Peace Diet," plays piano music to express his feelings during his talks, and he and his spouse created a CD of children's music incorporating mostly wild animal sounds. Somehow, though, I don't think a song with some snorting pigs will win you over...although...Hey!!...maybe *I* could fake the different animal sounds!! The song and my animal sounds could humorously symbolize the evolutionary tree connecting us all...and I wouldn't have to say a word. You would end up too exhausted from laughing to be able to eat anything!
Well, Unfan, I will think on this issue and see if I can come up with a song that emphasizes instrumentals and let's the listener ignore the message almost completely. I actually wrote down the skeleton of some lyrics today with you in mind...my attempt at subtle vegan propaganda that only becomes obvious at the end of the song. I think it would be hard for me to not use any words at all, because I like words so much, although I agree that instrumental music perhaps can be more emotionally moving.
Say, when you were taking about Bono, did you mean the "Don't Give Up (Africa)" rendition of Peter Gabriel's song?
