I never realized how annoying Philip Glass could be until I listened to Music in Twelve Parts. This is a funny song parody I found courtesy of Mari Aranoff Duncan
Once I heard music that gave me gas
It was written by Philip Glass
Credits include some big movie scores
But it's B.S. - His music bores
Once I heard film music that was divine
It was written by Elmer Bernstein
Glass writes arpeggios all of the time
Mind-numbing crap, musical crime
Lots of folks say they find it pleasant
But I must make jokes 'cause his stuff is cheesy
I could write like that – it would be so easy to
Just copy that incessant droning spew
I'll express that all the repetition
Is a cause of stress
When a sane musician has to play in that mess
A very dang'rous mission, yeah
"Koyaanisqatsi," "Einstein on the Beach"
Next time I can, I will take a pass
On hearing music by Philip Glass
And maybe I am being unkind
But Mr. Glass, Kiss my behind!
