@tigerz2350 I personally feel like allen wasn't making feel good dities. Allen was SAYING something. Allen risked so much to say what he did. There was an obsenity trial for howl. "America I used to be a communist when I was a kid and I'm not sorry." He said that in the 50's. This is before blacks could even vote.

@JamboCordoba - Yeah, because Ginsberg and Dylan were sooo deep. LOL. Why can't people just appreciate art for art. 90% of Ginsberg's poetry is "feel-good ditties", all done for the aesthetic value. Get off your high horse, and actually read for a change.

Jesus...I can't stand Jack Johnson.
but he does make me feel so hip and righteous while I shop at Trader Joes.
-
@JamboCordoba He doesn't. A lot of people just happen to like his style of music. Just because he's popular with a bunch of douchebags it doesn't discredit anything he says
-
@sillystupidpeople your an idiot
-
this video reminds me why i don't listen to Jack Johnson
that song is so shit
and is just an insult to Ginsberg and Dylan
-
Considering this was a piece for a documentary on Allen Ginsberg, name dropping then becomes acceptable.
-
A gorgeous song by an incredible songwriter. This man had to be coaxed into his recording career because he wanted to be a film maker. Our gain.

lol... u must be joking!!!

So in Jack's secret life at home he is concerned with real truth and poetry, while in the public sphere he spends his time making marketable feel-good ditties for the masses?

@JamboCordoba Hmmm...were you under the impression that those who make marketable art, like for instance, Johnny Depp, Paul McCartney, Bono (im only looking at the suggested videos on the right side of the screen) or even Dylan, were you under the impression that people who made marketable art were not concerned with truth, poetry, beauty... Grow up man.
i love seeing all these kids who are obviously NOT artists themselves rail against "sell outs" and "cop outs"
but i do get your point.
