RE: Banged up in an Indian hospital!

Interesting. I guess things do work a bit differently there!

Thanks for the video. Not entirely sure what to make of it as I couldn't understand the words, and the closed captioning didn't seem to work. But interesting visuals to be sure! It's not my usual cup of tea, but I didn't mind it. I don't have well defined music taste, except that I'm a big fan of classic rock and I dislike rap and country. Mostly I'm just inexperienced. I've never explored most of the genres out there.

Sort:  

It's a song by Tool, a rock band from the US. Their lyrics and the soundscapes they produce are very cerebral. This is far from their best work, but the lyrics are relevant here. The song starts with:

Eye on the TV
'Cause tragedy thrills me.
Whatever flavour
It happens to be:
"Killed by the husband",
"Drowned by the ocean",
"Shot by his own son"

And then a little later in the song:

I need to watch things die from a good safe distance.
Vicariously I live while the whole world dies.
You all feel the same.
So, why can't we just admit it?

Ah, thanks for that! Now I understand. :-) Definitely relevant and smart lyrics.
