4′33″ became for Cage the epitome of his idea that any sounds constitute, or may constitute, music.[

 

I'm sorry, Cage may be a music genious, but silence is silence even if it's a score instructing an instrument play NOT TO PLAY a single note.

It's a very very dodgy concept, and I'm not sure people would stand behind it if Simon Cowell came up with it.

It's all a bit like saying water has taste because it tastes like water.

 

My opinion is that 4'33" is not art.

Now then, Willow or silence? Hmmm, interesting choice :lol:

Ugh. Whip My Hair. :puke: *mute* Hey, they are playing 4'33" :D :kink:

Good that it's dropping so fast although unfortunately it's likely to climb next week, Biffy and The Trashmen will fall behind it, probably OG(ITW) too, and the only new entry ahead of it will be Katy B, meaning it'll probably be #8 best case scenario :(

What do you mean?

It's silence.

It's nothing.

I could do that.

 

Nothing artistic about it.

 

 

Have you actually read the previous posts or are you just assuming? It ISN'T silence

 

"Although commonly perceived as "four minutes thirty-three seconds of silence", the piece actually consists of the sounds of the environment that the listeners hear while it is performed" Maybe you should try listening to it - there's 8 versions to chose from on the download single....

Then feel free to not comment on it ;)

 

You annoy me Jester! ;) Whether it is an argument or not is what I meant!

 

And if we're getting scientific then 'silence' isn't possible, (unless you're in an air vaccuum).

I'm glad Willow has dropped quite far, hopefully it leaves soon, awful song. :puke2:
No.

 

He is having a sensible discussion - don't go crying argument.

 

thank you Matt, one of the problems in this forum is that anyone who states an opinion that doesnt conform to the majority it is automatically someone trying to start an arguement.

 

I'm not getting angry, and anyone who is needs to calm down, arent we here to discuss things in the first place? no one is forcing people to reply to me, if you do reply to me, i'll reply back, that;s how discussion works and i'm sorry if people have an issue with that.

 

 

however we have got a bit off topic lol.

exactly if cowell came up with 4'33 it would be a gimmick, as it is john cage it is art.

I'm not attacking you for liking her, she for me is just exactly the type of 'artist' that you were having a bash at.

 

i never said you only listen to lady gaga btw.

Yes, probably for you what i described was GaGa! That doesn't mean anuthing because everyone (i suppose) like an artist that is against their standards! I love her but i can name 100000 that i prefer to GaGa!

Scottish alternative rock band, Biffy Clyro, formed in the mid-1990s, and released their first single æIname' in May 1999. The THEKIDSWHOPOPTODAYWILLROCKTOMORROW EP was released by the Electric Honey imprint the following June, and helped pave the way for a recording contract with Beggars Banquet Records. The trio's first album for Beggars Banquet, BLACKENED SKY, was an amalgam of US alternative rock and technical metal. The follow-up, THE VERTIGO OF BLISS--released June 2003--was a more experimental collection of modern rock tracks, mixing quirky guitar riffs, acoustic interludes and lush strings. PUZZLE--the band's fourth album, released in 2007ùincluded collaborations with the contemporary composer Graeme Revell, and the Seattle Symphony Orchestra. - HMV

Well, its mutual :D What did you mean then? The whole point of this site is to discuss things - no point crying argument when people actually have a contrary opinion.

 

And yes silence isn't possible, read what ShakyFan said about the track.

Yay, Biffy finally get a third top 10 hit :D

 

They called it a 'new entry' though :angry:

Would have thought Biffy Clyro would have got higher than 8.
