I find myself looking for new sounds that understand the present and do something positive with it, in general, in my mind, there's a lot of extremely poor shit out there, at least in the commercial realm.
I find most popular discussions about "music" to be subjective and sadly tend to end up just being unjust "fandom" for particular artists, genres, and so on, rather than discussion grounded in sound music theory.

However I may attempt to elaborate on this at another time.

The Pixies - Monkey Gone To Heaven

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XycBLF6kWuY

There was a guy
An under water guy who controlled the sea
Got killed by ten million pounds of sludge
From New York and New Jersey
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
The creature in the sky
Got sucked in a hole
Now there's a hole in the sky
And the ground's not cold
And if the ground's not cold
Everything is gonna burn
We'll all take turns, I'll get mine too
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
Rock me Jo
If man is five, if man is five, if man is five
Then the devil is six, then the devil is six
The devil is six, the devil is six and if the devil is six
Then God is seven , then God is seven, the God is seven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven

Oh, the skies, tumbling from your eyes
So sublime, the chase to end all time
Seasons call and fall, from grace and uniform
Anatomical and metaphysical

Oh, the dye,
a blood red setting sun
rushing through my veins
burning up my skin,
I will survive, live and thrive
Win this deadly game
Love crime
Love crime
I will survive, live and thrive
I will survive, I will survive
I will

Hard to believe this composer was a contemporary of Bach. The wonderful Frenchman, Couperin.

I'm familiar with the theme being the introduction to a classical radio program but never knew who composed it. Never thought of Couperin, it sounds so modern.

One of the giants of the French Baroque for whom I have a particular liking is Jean-Philippe Rameau, a name not often heard compared to Bach, Handel or Vivaldi but to my mind hardly less than they. His music deserves to be heard much more often.

It sounds even more modern in this lovely interpretation (apart from a wrong note and a bit of unnecessary addition of staccato). It makes Gyorgy Cziffra's one sound clunky and heavy with minimal phrasing by comparison. Couperin was a couple of hundred years ahead of his time. It's certainly not the kind of music you associate with baroque era.

Why Get Up
The Fabulous Thunderbirds

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSv9ZEJOKXE

Why get up?
Why get up?
How can I get up?
Why should I get up?
This whole world's gone crazy
Think I've seen enough
I'm gonna sleep forever
Why get up?
Phone keeps ringing
Right off the hook
Some bill collector
I know what cooks
Think I'll stay in bed
And dream all day
The world outside
Bugs me anyway
When I get things going
The going gets rough
So I ask myself
Why get up?
Why get up?
Why get up?
How can I get up?
Why should I get up?
This whole world's gone crazy
Think I've seen enough
I'm gonna sleep forever
Why get up?
Went to the doctor
He said lose some weight
If you don't do it quick
We'll have to operate
I talked to my lawyer
He said case is closed
That woman got it all
Even the garden hose
Staring at the ceiling
Thinking just my luck
I better roll back over
Why get up?
Why get up?
Why get up?
How can I get up?
Why should I get up?
This whole world's gone crazy
Think I've seen enough
I'm gonna sleep forever
Why get up?
Well, I can't quit drinking
I'm nervous all the time
When I wake up
It's like a ton of lead on my mind
What was it, I said
To that girl last night?
She really got upset
I best stay out of sight
I remember a gun
Callin' somebody's bluff
I better duck under cover
Why get up?
Why get up?
Why get up?
How can I get up?
Why should I get up?
This whole world's gone crazy
Think I've seen enough
I'm gonna sleep forever
Why get up?
Why get up?
Why get up?
How can I get up?
Why should I get up?
This whole world's gone crazy
Think I've seen enough
I'm gonna sleep forever
Why get up?
