I think one of greatest examples was Prince. He, made up his own weird sexual references, that nobody but him, could come( no pun intended) up with.
In fact no one with a normal or even slighly perverted mind would even get; let alone understand without explanation. Some don't even make sense to anyone but the purple smurf.( RIP)
As a side note; I only ever liked one song of his songs, When doves Cry. When I was a teenager, I would watch his videos and hit mute. Those gorgeous female dancers were the hottest out of all; the other's on MTV.
Yep, I am old. I still remember when MTV actually played music videos. Between the 5 minute commercial breaks every 2 videos. No other network had more commercials or paid their talent less on air personalities( vj's) less. Ok, maybe it's sister station, VH1.
Wow, I actually remember what it was like 2 years after it's 1981 debut. Horrible music with terrible videos. The early 80's were a dark time for music.
However, hard rock and metal were really starting to get good. Hanging out with older kids always made me aware of what was going on musically.
However, the subtle references always seemed whimpy to me. I liked more direct messages.
Such as the greatest rap song ever.( and one of the very few from that genre I like/can tolerate). Sir Mix-A-Lot's timeless classic, Baby Got Back.
No debate, no hidden meaning, that may or may not exist in a song.
Nope, Sir Mix-A-Lot, Likes big butts.
