Music is always changing and the changes are unpredictable.
- Billy Sheehan
Is it strange that some of the happiest songs were written when the world was at its worst?
Or that the saddest songs are often written when the world is on a high?
We all know about economic cycles. High interest rates, then low interest rates. High unemployment, then everyone finds a job. Rinse and repeat. Geopolitics have cycles as well. War follows peace follows war every few generations.
Much of cycle theory is explained by the last generation dying out, only to be replaced by a younger cohort with no memories of their parent’s mistakes. They then make them all over again.
Music has its cycles too.
