The first of November
is a special day, All Saints Day. Its a day when we remember the death.
Everybody knows
someone who passed away. We try to honour them, especially the 1st
of November.
This year Studio
Brussels had a great idea: a whole weekend you could hear great music from
artists who passed away. I could see no
harm in that?
A whole weekend you
might think that Studio Brussels was the best Belgian radio station. For
example, Queen had some airplay, Amy Winehouse had some airplay, and you also
heard Elvis Presley as well.
Sometimes you heard an
artist, when you didnt know he passed away. So you might say that it was a
little bit educational as well J
No problem at this
point.
So what is this blog about? Do you really want to know what my problem is?
Do you know how they
named this promotion stunt? Death is Music (they have a radio show named Life
is Music, so it was meant as a parody).
Death is Music
Whats in a name?
In my opinion Death is
Music is a terrible name that offends many people.
When I heard about the
concept, I was delighted: finally some good music.
But please, give the
name some thought. Thats a good example of bad imaging.
