Specific Technology References In Lyrics....Sometimes It Works....... Or Not

Turn off your radio
shut away your stereo
put away your discman
and play me a tune today

That one works.

iGeneration

And people tried to put us down, when iTunes bumped a post-Cold War sound.
My generation sat the mecca of malls, Times Square, I'm there, Viacom installs.
So we hit the net while the Trade Center fell, New York met Hollywood, we ran like hell.
No Vietnam for us, yo, Iraq it's on. So who agree upon this cowboy Genghis Khan?
The choice made, baby. Hey we'd take it back, logged in dropped out, MTV took track.
They sold it back to us and claimed no correlation. The iMac, iPod, iGeneration.
And I'm waiting for the day we can get out. The world is ours, that's the story no doubt.
Want to be more info super highway traffic, want to be more than a walking demographic!

CHORUS
"Hey! You're part of it." Talking about the iGeneration.
"Yeah! You're part of it." Talking about my iGeneration.

See the iGeneration knew organization meant optimization and unification,
When imagination gave participation in creation of culture a manifestation.
The Berlin Wall fell and out we came, the post-Cold War kids laid claim to AIM.
LOL, OMG, yo, BRB. Space, colon, dash, closed parenthesis.
We sat at our laptops and typed away, and found that we each had something to say.
Web-logged our fears, our hopes and dreams. Individuated by digital means.
Fiber optic lenses, DVD, Coca Cola, Disney and Mickey D's.
Flat mass culture, the norm that took holdÉ I hope I die before I get sold.

"Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
As the flames rose to her Roman nose
and her Walkman started to melt."

Often misheard by me as "and her warm flesh started to melt," sung by Morrissey on latest live album as "and her iPod started to melt."

'Then there'd be no whistles, no radios
No screens
Then there'd be no whistles, no radios
No screens '

It's more like "No screeeeeeeeeeeeeeens!!!"

My phone's on vibrate for you
Electroclash is karoake too
I try to dance Britney Spears
I guess I'm getting on in years

It's a wide world out there
So much wider than imagined
I can't quite put my finger on the pulse
Of your heart softly beating
Just beneath the raw silk sheen
That reflects the tints of autumn from the hills.

So punch my name.
And in case you wonder -
I'll be yours - yours, dot com.

The ReBirth Brass Band also thumps into mind here.

for this, though: "FOR ALL THE BROTHERS WITH AN 808, PE GOT A BRAND NEW FUNK!"

Put your message in a modem
And throw it in the Cyber Sea

"When people stared in Jagger's eyes and scored
Like the video films we saw"

The radio and the telephone and the movies that we know
May just be passing fancies and in time may go
