Video killed the radio star, used to be a famous song in the 1980s that was released shortly after music videos were being brought into our homes, via our television sets. However, modern day videos have not only killed the radio star, they are also beginning to feed on the innocence of our youth. A lot of parents are rallying to try to get explicit videos removed from TV and the internet, however no justice has prevailed from their actions.
Almost every single music video that you come across makes some type of sexual reference. The pictures of half naked girls in rap videos and the subtle sexual influences in heavy metal videos are getting a little bit out of hand.
Adults are not the prime audience that these videos are viewed by. Children are also watching these same videos and beginning to mimic the adverse behaviors of the stars that are in them. A lot of these behaviors that are being shown on these videos are not something that any parent would want their child to try to mimic.
Not only are these videos shown on our television sets, they are also shown all over the internet as well. Some people believe that music videos should be censored, while other people protest that this type of censorship would violate our liberties that were given to us by our forefathers.
The traditional values that a lot of us were brought up to believe are also being thrown out the window. For instance, children these days are learning about the classic birds and bees reference at an alarmingly young age. This is actually not only disturbing, but in all do respects it strips children of their innocence.
Music videos are not what they used to be when they first hit our television screens. These days, music videos are a lot more like pornography than anything else. Countless girls showing off their bodies and men rubbing all over them are some of the only things that are being shown in a lot of these videos.
There are a lot of people that say that if a parent does not want their child to watch something than they should keep whatever it is away from them. However, even if a parent makes every attempt to shed their child’s eyes to these videos, the children are always going to find some way to watch them without their parents knowledge.
Yes, parents can try to keep these explicit videos out of the viewing eyes of their children. However, children are still going to be able to see them, regardless of how much their parents try to keep them away from them. So, until these videos can begin to change their ways, there is no telling if children will ever be able to reclaim their innocence.

I’ve recently come across Bandcamp.com and I’m impressed with the service it provides for artists/bands (and for music fans for that matter.)
It lets bands sell their music as downloads so that the bands themselves keep all of the profit from those sales. Screw the record labels. It’s the artists that should be making money [...]

Our illustrious Mr. Whitperson was feeling a bit under the weather today, but he had some time to put together a rocking podcast to pay homage to the 10 year anniversary of Phish’s Big Cypress NYE2000 celebration down in Florida, easily one of the most important concerts of the decade. Love it.

I’ve mentioned here a few times before how much I like AmazonMP3 (I think it’s way better than ITunes) for purchasing music downloads. The selection is outstanding and I like that the mp3 quality is better than it is on ITunes and that you don’t have to use ITunes as your player (I prefer Winamp) [...]
