In Sweden, there is a yearly affair called Polar Music Prize which resembles Nobel Prize, but it's for music. It is dedicated to musicians who worked very hard through the chemistry of music, literature.
From Bjork, Led Zeppelin to Boy Dylan are among those who were awarded the prize. This year's winner came no surprise (finally!) to punk "godmother" Patti Smith who, at 65, received the honor "for devoting her life to art in all its forms".
Patti Smith, who writes poetry, photography, painting, working as a rock journalism, performing, writing music… She literally does everything by herself, leaving in her own space, eat, sleep and breathe art. A inspiring icon indeed.
I like strong figure like that. Not just wasting time enjoying the 30 mins glamour on stage, trash some guitars, take some drugs and had women all around the world, that's all. Even there's a few tracks on the record are great, so what? There are more music to choose from. So there will never never be the ONLY number one.
I like how one lives for their passion, independent, creative and not living for the world. I wonder if Patti Smith support any charity moment, that would be great if she does.
Her new album is set to due next year. Congratulations Patti Smith, always had love your voice.
Welcome back.
Later,
Ethan X
