What’s Been Lost

What is it about the music of our childhood?

Seems to me–as much as it could be said that all peoples across generations now might say the same from some nostalgic push–that it was special. Different. Emotive. But authentic and powerful.

Phil Collins was so sublimely talented and relished playing live that when he missed a note, he just laughed it off and sang on.

The current age prefers to mock this genuine expression of pain, loss, love, whatever.

This has to count as a great loss, if not the greatest.
