Quit beating around the bush, Jim, and tell us what you really think!

By the way, it's too late to prevent "musical pollution" from the US 
reaching European shores. Rap is quite prevalent on the continent (and 
elsewhere). This aberration is, like jazz, a uniquely American contribution 
to the musical culture of the world.

It's too late, too late, too late (dissolve into tears and moans) . . .
