Crank Up That Oboe

Beethoven is one of my favourite all-time composers. I'm sure he would have rocked if he was living in the modern age. Just listen to the start of his Fifth. That's heavy. I can see how it would have pissed off a lot of parents back in his day. It probably made their kids want to go out in public without their wigs. I even look a bit like Beethoven at some angles and I'm sure we have the same hair. Someone else said we also have the same housecleaning schedule, but I wouldn't presume to be that great. And I know the message behind his music was simple. He needed sex. He was surrounded by pretty blonde frauleins and it slowly drove him insane. Especially with all that cleavage on display as it was back then. Yes, I suspect that Beethoven was a tit-man. (Not much else for leg-men to look at anyway.) Too bad about his deafness. In his case, he was able to carry on writing good music. But this approach to song writing set an evil precedent for the centuries that followed him. Now it's at the point where you can write music without even having a brain. Beethoven comes across as very serious in his music, but I have a feeling he was also a bit of a comic. All those old German dudes are misunderstood. Half the stuff they wrote as gags was taken seriously by the people that came after them. Right up to Heidegger, who merely took his doodles of Peanuts characters and converted them into theories. (Albeit, most effectively.) I like Beethoven, but I wouldn't put a picture of him on my wall. I might put a picture of his wife or daughter on my wall - if they were in one of those dresses.
