Rock stars
We should give it to them
They are sharp;
in their 20s, they manage to come up with lyrics that capture and communicate the substance of what is in and around us (discard the "baby, I love you" babble); they write verses (even if they just happen to casually stumble upon them *) carrying insights that most of us mortals may not discover by the time we have kids their age;
And they are brave;
they dare to try to get it, and the girls with it, by playing, by giving it time, against ridicule, laziness and boredom of not knowing any better.
(*) interesting (old timer ?) prejudice here?
