But hey, if love’s going to crash and burn, you might as well do it to a killer beat. Dancing in the Flames: Lyrical Breakdown and…

After delving into the rebellious spirit of 60s rock and the soulful, polished grooves of Motown, it’s time to switch gears to a genre that took a quieter yet equally powerful approach to changing the world: folk music.
