Hearing is believing

A good point here is that the way something is said to us helps us understand the mood of the teller; and perhaps, the teller himself. When he says that the lyrics in a song mean less then the music of the song, this can be both true and false. True because the sound of the song helps set the mood in ourselves. A bouncy song may make us want to get up and dance and a sad song may make us want to cry. TO an extent, he is saying the music of a song delivers across a more powerful message then the lyrics of the song. I can see why swaggering rumble was banned. In that time period music like that was obscene, just like Elvis's dance moves. The song just sounds dirty. The use of radio to deliver a message is better than t.v. On t.v, creativity only goes as far as the t.v. itself. on the radio, with the use of special effects alone, it gives the listener the ability to really use his imagination and picture what the scene would look like. this is true, if we see a picture of something without sound, we can imagine what the scene would sound like. In the same sense, when we here something on the radio, we can visualize what the scene would look like.
