purple fog

Musically speaking, most of the bands and songs in it are outdated. Except for Jim Hendrix who still stands out.

But the significance of the concert, and the significance of rock music, is still worth pondering. This concert took place after the 68 storm in France. Paradoxically, in the United States, the country where the Vietnam War started, there was no social unrest. What happened was just a concert advertised as love and peace. It seems that society has given rock and roll the identity of "rebel society", thereby disarming its urge to confront society with real weapons. Rock behavior, like marijuana smoking, has become a hallucinogen for "escape" in the name of "rebel" - Purple Haze.

Purple haze all in my brain
lately things don't seem the same
Acting funny and i don't know why
excuse me while i kiss the sky

Purple haze all around
don't know if I'm going up or down
am i happy or in misery?
whatever at is a girl put a spell on me

Purple haze all in my eyes
don't know if it's day or night
you've got me blowin', blowin' my mind
is it tomorrow or just the end of time

help me, help me
i don'
cant go on like this

blow my mind
