If you can see no difference in Manilow's videos and those of your average rock 
and roll group, I see no hope for development of your artistic level 
sensibilities.

No, the quality of the level of art.

You miss the point. To you biological means sex. You have a sex fixation. My 
point had to do with musicianship which is an art level, not a biological 
level, attribute.

If yearning for a return to music is an archaistic quest, then art has indeed 
become a biological product produced by the untalented and sold to the 
pubescent.
