  • get educated before you might explain folkagain, i don't mean to sound like an asshole but you don't seem to know any artists past bob dylan, simon & garfunkel and woody guthire.. and also folk isn't neccessarily rooted in protest, it has a lot of different aspects, and protest might be one of them but you can write a folk song about other things

  • Bob Dylan was folk...the fact that you think this makes it apparent to me that you know absolutely nothing about music.

  • Hey Cody

    I like the point you made about the inherent irony in folk music.

    What may be a harsh or painful message kind of sneaks into the song because the music is pleasant.
