I don't want to give platitudes, but I think people can be encouraged to have some understanding of the difference between musical content and lyrical content

"forgotten"? I can't place the word.

They have to give a fuck first

All good music is essentially nostalgic in my opinion

But I admit many of his recordings are not necessarily very rousing.

all good music feels familiar, feels "just right"

Eh

The other Americana guy I was introduced to around the same time is Will Taylor.
He recorded his debut solo album with just his banjo and his voice.

2nd album had a full band, ruined it IMHO. Sounded like cheesy country dance hall.

Good music feels like an extension of yourself but I wouldn't call it nostalgic

It's the best word I had

I don't mean it evokes nostalgia as an aesthetic

all good music is half remembered

that better?

I was drunk last night wanting to wage war with anglos

all art is divine

Folk music treads through stories that aren't mine but they still feel half-remembered.

of all the arts, music is the one with the most immediate link to transcendent experience

I knew nothing of baseball as a boy but this song can put me over the edge.

it's literally otherworldly

Nostalgic reminds me of retro gaming and pulling out action figures out of a long forgotten chest

even when worldly, it gives life meaning, so is transcendent in a way

yeah, I don't mean it like that

imagine if in 20 years, heavy metal is forgotten, forever

the music remains, available and preserved

but no one seeks it out

until the end of time

people at a certain point notice it as a sociological thing, make a study out of it

but don't actually get into it

no one would notice, no one would care, unheard, unsung

that would be criminal I think

humanity would have something to answer for

I don't know

I think most people in general don't feel music the same way we do

So if it's left unsung, who cares?
