Language is constantly in developing, as the days go by, new words are added to the dictionary peculiarities of certain ages are lost, new ways of speaking are introduced and diction fall under the law of use and disuse. We as a people find our minds engaged in the day to day battle of speech, communication, understanding and connection.
For as a specie, conversation makes up 90 percent of how we communicate our feelings, it is the engaging of another in rapport that is meaningful, feeling a kind of accomplishment of having not wasted one's time, hereby finding a certain release and feedback in saying the things we know. What happens however when we cant do that, What happens when we cannot find conversational kindred spirit?
Naturally we recourse to music which increases our chasm through the sating of our ears with certain music and lyrics that can't be matched in our day to day lives, Do we therefore become distant and unable to connect to the slow and less than stellar garb that is human conversation, How then do we cope with it's ostracization.
Elucidated as a peculiarity of Jim Jarmusch movies which focuses on the art of conversation and how our greatest gift of speech doesn't really create tether with the next person as conversations fall under the scrutiny of myriad of interest level of thinking and exposure so to look for what I term Idealistic conversation many of us recourse to the use of music which are sadly overwhelming and rife with beautiful lyrics and well constructed words and phrases which can have a negative effect on our relationship with people
Have you ever listened to certain music lately the way these poets craft words and weave them creating idealistic conversation In form of great music, and after the earpiece comes off where can we continue that in our day to day society when Artistes like Joanna Newsom, Joni Mitchell Jono Mcclery Jessica Pratt (Just J's) are in their millions singing beautiful conversation in our ears and make us overwhelmed what then happens to our Immediate society what happens when we take off our earpiece and what we have is the banal conversation that obviates the chasm of difference how then do we communicate do we sod it all put back our earpiece in garb paradise or try to endure for the sake of "humanity"
I am asking could this chase for idealistic conversation be a curse As it Sieves out friends ostracizing you by making you feel superior and distant can this be a form of social exclusion a kind of snake that eats itself because the more the exclusion the more one finds succor in music and reify, Is there a way the world can be carried along or can we reach a conversational compromise, is social exclusion the result of a constant listen to good music really worth it?
