I might have been influenced by my 4th grade music teacher, Ms
Greene. Time travel - hop in my TARDIS:
I'm 10 yrs old. 1982. "Star Blazers" was the only Anime
available [it didn't exist as a Genre yet] - which I also
watched over one summer obsessively.
It's October 1982. Pink Floyd's The Wall had just been released
a few months before.
She plays what was "New Music" at the time. "We don't need no
education" for us and teaches us to sing it.
She got fired a month later because of it. They thought us 4th
graders would burn the school, set desks on fire, cause havoc
and anarchy. We were not allowed to sing the song anywhere on
school premises.
