Literatur, Pop

Mein aktueller Lieblingsabsatz:

People worry about kids playing with guns, and teenagers watching violent videaos; we are scared that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands - literally thousands - of songs about broken hearts and rejection and pain and misery and loss. The unhappiest people I know, romantically speaking, are the ones who like pop music the most; and I don´t know whether pop music has caused this unhappiness, but I do know that they´ve been listening to the sad songs longer than they´ve been living the unhappy lives.

Nick Hornby, High Fidelity, 19

Minnesang come alive.
