I love Gil Scott-Heron and Brian Jackson's albums from back in the day, you know? This song is definitely in my top 3 by Scott-Heron.

I think this is a great message that's become even more relevant recently with the i-whatever and You- and My- nonsense age.

Great song, thanks for the upload

[pungisotu]

@ryled absolutely. always glad to share with a Gil fan.

Whats some of your favorite tracks by him?

[ryled]

@pungisotu

I love "Winter In America," "Pieces of a Man," "Johannesburg," "Home Is Where the Hatred Is," and "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised" (naturally) I dunno, it's hard to pick a best album, but I really liked "Pieces of a Man" and "Midnight Band" a lot

What're your favorite tracks?

[novembertalespinner]

@ryled I cannot think of a track on any album by GSH that I did not like.

[myisha1231]

wake up to the uselessness!!!! thanks!

[Turn2God4Hope]

". . . and you'll wake up to the uselessness, 'til your whole life is overdue because if it's so damn pitiful that you can't believe it's true, its Madison Avenue." Wow, this song really sums up most of the vanities of life. We have been deceived into thinking that things will make us happy when, in fact, only God can make us happy.

Right on time! Had this in my 'FAVORITES' (for a LONG time) from my guy 2channeltv but his account just got suspended and my FAVORITES list took a huge hit ! Can't go without MADISON AVENUE and SHOW BUSINESS by  GSH. Thanks for posting this. Now I can avoid the "withdrawals" ! lol
