Who are more "serious"?
The Waters's song are more "serious". Most of Water's song are just use very simple musical instrument, such as guitar and harmonica. The all things he expressed are from his voice and his lyric, and his song have connection with American's history. So his songs are more simple more serious. Dylan's are also serious, but some of the songs listened not serious. There have songs be sung like speaking, it is not serious. Madonnna's songs are expression his thought and his life. They are more living. And the music we heard are not just his voice, there are many obbligatos. If the music do not have accompany, the feeling of her song may be different. Thus, the Waters' s song are the most serious.

  1. Hi Jing,

    I like how you thought this all out. It seems to me that you are saying Waters's songs are most serious because they have so little accompanying them. Because of that, there is more emphasis on the lyrics and the music itself, whereas for Madonna and Dylan there is more to their performance. Consequently, their messages can seem more diffuse.

    Thanks for a thoughtful post!
