Like Engine said, I think the slur stems from homophobia. I meant that in the Dire Straits song, the use of "***got" as a putdown of someone regardless of that person's sexual orientation was a broadening of the meaning of the slur, "***got," that was also used around that time to refer specifically to gay people. I remember how "***got" was used in the '80s as a general putdown of any disliked person, and the reason the term was a putdown is that it implied the person was gay (even if the speaker didn't believe this), which was supposed to be bad and humiliating. I don't think the word "***got" that Dire Straits use in the song relates directly to a bundle of sticks (faggot) or a cigarette (fag), because faggot meaning a bundle of sticks is pretty much obsolete in the U.S. and fag meaning cigarette is mostly used in Britain. |
My first foray into John Zorn, because of a Metal Wars battle. I feel like this album is mocking my utter and complete uncoolness with it's own utter and complete coolness.

Hell On Heels - Pistol Annies
this song... my mother got stuck in my head |
Van Halen - "Dance the Night Away"
Nice guitar playing and a pretty vocal chorus for the chorus. I especially love Eddie's guitar solo at 1:58 where he simply touches rather than strums the guitar strings with his fingers, showing how delicate and sensitive an electric guitar is. Van Halen - Dance the Night Away live '79 - YouTube |
Love, love, love. The atmosphere is so perfect. If you like Burial/Gold Panda/Shlohmo, you'd like this. (Though don't get excited and think the whole E.P. is like this. It's not. Just this song. Whore.) |
