Pink floyd money lyrics
It's a highly personal song, and I only wish that David Gilmour had written the lyrics himself, or with another member of the band. What I and other fans complain about is the fact that David didn't just his own lyrics. I don't think it has to do with misogyny - I don't mind the fact that Polly wrote the lyrics.
But I guarantee you many people dislike her and her work because she's a woman. Many people dislike her as a writer because they didn't like any of the songs she had a part on from the Division Bell, and that's fine. Many people dislike her as a writer because of Louder Than Words, and that's fine. Many people are indifferent towards her, and that's fine. Many people like her work, and that's okay. She was cowriter on High Hopes, one of the band's best received songs, and still many still gave her shit. For all we know, the best lines were hers and the worst were David's. And before you say, "No, it's because she's a shitty writer", remember this started before we knew anything she wrote. But I think the criticism she got was more based on sexism than allegations of nepotism. I'm not one of those who says any criticism of any woman boils down to sex. Now, I am not usually one to call sexism. Now, that means people either had a problem with:ġ. But this controversy was around long before The Endless River. It's perfectly fine if you don't like Louder Than Words, that's an opinion. Nobody even really cared that Wearing The Inside Out was the first time no band members contributed to the lyrics, but for whatever reason having David's wife write any lyrics was too far. There was a very minor uproar in 1987 about having anyone come in and do any lyrics (less documented, because of the lack of the Internet, but you can look at what Roger said about it), but that paled in comparison to how people felt about Polly. And they didn't even know exactly what lines she wrote. Seriously, go back to from 1994, wade through the Publius posts, and you'll find plenty of people whining about a wife writing lyrics. Roger laughed about the wife writing lyrics. Going back to 1994, there was plenty of uproar from the fans that David's wife was writing lyrics.
