7 months agoAs much as I want TiK ToK by Kesha to be a recognizable tune in half a millenia I know that’s not happening. Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode is one of the most covered songs of the past 50 years so that very well may become immortalized through diffusion alone. There’s a couple dozen jazz standards that could have that kind of staying power as well, especially considering their ubiquity in performance repitoires and books of sheet music.
My favorite part of linux news is that you get a headline like this and to 99.5% of the population it sounds like word salad but at the same time there’s at least 15 dudes who are going to be totally stoked by this.
