After all, the guy wrote "Piggies" and "Tax Man", which perhaps do not express the same Morrissey-like existential angst that we find in "She Said", but are bitter songs nonetheless.<br /><br />I think it's a myth that hippies and people who go in "Eastern" religions or other "woo-woo" practices are more at peace and spiritually enlightened than the rest of us. In fact, people who are into Yoga, Tai Chi, meditation, etc. are often drawn to these practices precisely because they are more miserable than the rest of us, and in desperate need of some kind of spiritual grounding.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
