    This notorious "silent composition" from 1952 will "make Simon Cowell's head explode", promise the organisers


    i doubt it

    I covered this song numerous times in my life

    I heard the composer (Cage) say that people don't know how to listen to music anymore and if you listen closely you can hear the wind blow and this kind of nonsense. That said, Id prefer to listen to silence (or people coughing randomly and the odd random noise) than the latest offering from Simon Cowell.

    I love Cage's work, I thoroughly enjoy it, but I don't want this to happen. Nor will it do the same thing "Killing In The Name" done last year, this year people will think of it as "a blank CD". As with last year they were actually getting something for it. I think PanterA would be far better.

    You're right Nailz but I'd rather buy the sound of a fingernail on a blackboard than the rubbish he puts on that show every week.

    Very true... My I recommend some John Zorn or Brian Eno?
