Transcript
- 1:58All right, let's see what we got here.
- 2:01Hello, ladies and gentlemen. My name is Brett Keene and
- 2:04you're watching and listening to GOD TV Radio.
- 2:08I hope you're all having a wonderful day.
- 2:11Let's go ahead and put something on the screen that looks very
- 2:14handsome. Yes, I've been doing a lot of
- 2:17work on my website here and oh, by the way, folks, you can buy
- 2:25the entire collection of all my albums by simply buying the
- 2:30digital discography Girls. And you can also stream the
- 2:36music and listen to it for absolutely free.
- 2:39Look at the lyrics. Or you can buy tracks
- 2:42individually. Yes.
- 2:44Oh yeah, yeah, we're doing pretty good on that.
- 2:50Oh boy. So let's get on with the topic.
- 2:57Can Brett Keene work musically or with writings or under any
- 3:02kind of circumstances with an atheist, non believer, skeptic,
- 3:08freethinker, whatever the hell they call themselves.
- 3:11You know why they call them freethinkers for, right?
- 3:13Because nobody would pay a penny to hear their thoughts.
- 3:16That's the deal. Well believe it or not, I've
- 3:20actually tried in the past to work with non believers.
- 3:25Obviously many of you know that I was an atheist for a while
- 3:29there and that didn't stop me from wanting to do music and
- 3:34still write books obviously. Although it did make me question
- 3:41quite a few times, why should I be doing this for, you know, one
- 3:46day I'm going to die and none of it will ever matter.
- 3:49That kind of crisis, you know, mentally and spiritually.
- 3:54But, you know, I soldiered on, yes.
- 4:00OK, So trying to work with atheist musicians.
- 4:02The problem with this is, I'm going to be frank with you, most
- 4:07atheist I've ever dealt with, they don't have any talent.
- 4:12I mean, there's a couple of them that know how to play some
- 4:14chords on the guitar, but they don't have any spiritual sense,
- 4:20they don't have any discernment, and they are usually involved in
- 4:26music for all the wrong reasons, like they're out to want to have
- 4:32sex with girls. It's all about money for them
- 4:35and the music really doesn't mean anything.
- 4:38It's where the music will take them as what they're constantly
- 4:42thinking about, what it will get them material wise.
- 4:47They can't just sit down and enjoy making music or writing
- 4:52books and all that kind of stuff and it has to be the end game
- 4:57for them. And on top of that, 95% of the
- 5:02time, none of them have the talent to actually go anywhere.
- 5:06You'll notice when you look at the music industry or even with
- 5:10actors and actresses, most of the greatest actors and
- 5:15musicians and entertainers of all times have always believed
- 5:19in a God. And the same can be said about
- 5:22the most revolutionary scientists that have ever
- 5:24existed, like Albert Einstein, who said the more I study
- 5:28science, the more I believe in God.
- 5:32All the greatest scientists in the world who believed in God
- 5:35were the ones that went down in history as those who changed the
- 5:39world or made some kind of impact.
- 5:42Fred Mercury, although he wasn't a Christian, he was as a
- 5:46Rastrian, which meant that he believed in a God.
- 5:49Megadeth. Dave Mustin as a Christian and
- 5:53most of the band is spiritual in the sense that they believe in a
- 5:57higher power. Metallica has confirmed that
- 6:01they believe in God. In fact, on many of their songs
- 6:05they speak of God and talk about God.
- 6:09With Metallica though, it's kind of a mixed type of concept where
- 6:14some songs talk about changes in life, but Metallica's lyrics are
- 6:22usually pretty negative. So when they do mention their
- 6:27belief in God, unfortunately sometimes they dump on him.
- 6:30I'll give you an example. Welcome Home Sanitarium mentions
- 6:34God and a very popular song after Justice for All album
- 6:39called One. It's about a guy who was
- 6:43convinced by his father that it would be democracy to go out in
- 6:47the war and that that's the ultimate way to be able to bring
- 6:51freedom is to get your parts blown off.
- 6:53And the music video, it shows disturbing imagery of a man who
- 6:58has been paralyzed to the point where he can't even twitch a
- 7:02finger, and he's crying out to God to kill him because he
- 7:07doesn't want to live like that. Very disturbing.
- 7:12And then the lyrics, it says, hold my breath as I wait for
- 7:18death. Oh, God, please wake me.
- 7:23And I think there's a line where he actually asked God to kill
- 7:27him. So they believe very strongly in
- 7:31their lyrics. They have a lot of lyrics having
- 7:33to do with that, but they talk about the evils and the darkness
- 7:38in the world whenever writing their music so it's hard to
- 7:42tell. Alice Cooper been around for
- 7:44many many years. Ozzy Osbourne.
- 7:47Ozzy Osbourne uses a lot of symbolic religious material and
- 7:52the stuff, but he's made it clear that him and his family
- 7:55heavily believe in God. If you want to really, really be
- 8:00able to hear 2 albums that are a lot about God and Ozzy's
- 8:04feelings, check out No Rest for the Wicked and The Ultimate Sin.
- 8:10Now the album is called The Ultimate Sin.
- 8:12You can't really hide that shit. But personally, working with
- 8:20musicians, I'm in. Go on all Day, Alice Cooper,
- 8:23Ozzy, Metallica, all your greatest bands.
- 8:27You might be able to go out and find a couple rare musicians who
- 8:32have atheist beliefs, but you'll notice that they're their bands
- 8:37are are Garbage, Led Zeppelin, Stairway to Heaven.
- 8:40I mean, it was a song about God and faith and all that.
- 8:46And then they have another song having to do with love and
- 8:50spirituality. That got real big too.
- 8:53Pink Floyd But they're, their views are kind of unusual.
- 9:03It's hard to unpackage and unwrap them.
- 9:07And so, yeah, that's, that's the problem.
- 9:11A lot of I've actually had atheist musicians come to my
- 9:15home. I've brought them into the
- 9:16studio and they, a lot of them are on drugs.
- 9:23A lot of them usually have like a, a crappy existence and
- 9:29there's a lot of anger, there's a lot of animosity.
- 9:33And it's also extremely difficult to work with people
- 9:37who are so involved in their nihilism and nothing views that
- 9:44they give you a hard time because your views are
- 9:48different. Like, for instance, my band at
- 9:52this point is called GOD TV Radio.
- 9:54I worked with an older band called Altered Fate a long time
- 9:58ago. And I've done stuff obviously
- 10:00with my brother Justin Keen, which my brother, by the way, is
- 10:04a believer in God. If you actually listen to his
- 10:07music, you'd be able to tell that in his lyrics.
- 10:11He doesn't always look positively on some of the
- 10:14decisions God made in the Bible. Like he's got a song called
- 10:18Killing them, the name God, but he still believes God is there.
- 10:23He just doesn't see him as this Nancy Pansy hippie that some
- 10:26Christians do or God's just all about love.
- 10:29He understands that God is a sovereign God who is in the
- 10:33wrath, destruction, punishment and will spank your ass if you
- 10:37get out of line. Well, if you're working with an
- 10:40atheist musician, they just can't keep it to themselves.
- 10:44They're like, why is it got to be God?
- 10:46TV, radio, why? Why is it that the song's got to
- 10:50be about God or why does it have to be about love or why does it
- 10:54have to be this or that? And there's these constant
- 10:57complaints instead of just listening to the song and
- 11:00saying, yes, it's a beautiful melody.
- 11:02It's a great track and I'm looking forward to playing with
- 11:06it. I the atheist constantly needs
- 11:09to bitch about the fact that it has the word God in it or might
- 11:13actually have some kind of inspirational message to it.
- 11:16So that's annoying. You don't want to work with
- 11:19people who aren't on the same wavelength with you for the same
- 11:24reason. Why?
- 11:25If you know that you're you have a relative or a friend, someone
- 11:30you think is your friend is a non believer, you don't take
- 11:33them to church with you. Even if you want them saved and
- 11:37you want them to get salvation. You have to understand that if
- 11:40you take them, they're going to bitch and whine like a little
- 11:43kid that doesn't get to play with its toys or hang out
- 11:46playing the Xbox. They're going to complain.
- 11:49They don't want to be there. They don't want to be involved
- 11:51in fellowship and meeting new people and hearing new ideas and
- 11:56all that. The atheist is pretty wrapped up
- 11:58in himself. So that's, that's one of the
- 12:02reasons why it's not to be cruel or mean.
- 12:06It's not as if I haven't tried. I've always been open to trying
- 12:10to work with anybody, always try to be open to being friends with
- 12:15anybody in kind and listening to people's views.
- 12:19But I just, I don't have it in me now that I'm an older person
- 12:25to deal with drug addicts and losers and, and people who
- 12:29simply don't have talent. And that's another problem too.
- 12:33I've never met an atheist that can actually keep up musically.
- 12:37A lot of them are lazy. A lot of them want to cut
- 12:40corners. A lot of them, they just bitch
- 12:45and moan constantly. And it's really when you're
- 12:48doing music, you have to be in a, a zone.
- 12:53I don't know if some of you out there understand this, but you
- 12:57don't just wake up in the morning sometimes and out pops a
- 13:01great ass idea, you know? Well actually sometimes it does.
- 13:06But if you're working with people who are idiots or
- 13:09ignorant or bitchy, they can really, really take away your
- 13:14create creativity. It's one of the reasons why I
- 13:18went through quite a few non believer musicians in the past.
- 13:22They just always negative, always nasty, always got their
- 13:27head up their ass and all this kind of stuff.
- 13:30But yeah, unfortunately that's the way it works.
- 13:34I mean, if if you want to be a successful politician, then you
- 13:38hang out with the godless. If you want to hang out with
- 13:41people who are willing to lie and cheat and steal and kill in
- 13:46order to get promoted, raises and more money than they should
- 13:50and rob taxpayers, then atheists are the right people to hang out
- 13:54with. But if you want to do music
- 13:56about love or write the philosophical novels and all
- 14:00that kind of stuff, then that's the last thing that you want.
- 14:05And could you imagine that? Imagine that you do meet some
- 14:09non believers who you can relate with on some kind of common
- 14:14ground and then you make it successful in the music business
- 14:17or movies or whatever. Could you imagine what the
- 14:20interviews would be like? Because everybody reporters
- 14:23always want to know what your views are.
- 14:26What do you think about the world?
- 14:27What do you think about God? What do you think about this?
- 14:30What do you think about that? And then they have some person
- 14:33who doesn't believe in any kind of moral laws or anything like
- 14:38that. He's just going to sit there
- 14:39and, you know, bust out about how they were smoking crack that
- 14:43day or doing something stupid. And you know, if F your God, you
- 14:48instantly will hurt half your audience by doing that.
- 14:54You instantly basically say to people who might be listening,
- 15:00if you have this view other than my own, then I consider you
- 15:04lower than shit. And the problem with fans and
- 15:07people who adore you and audiences is that they, they
- 15:12take it to heart and they will also tell themselves in their
- 15:15head and convince them, which most likely they're right.
- 15:19Why should I listen to this? Why should I buy this?
- 15:22Why should I support this band or this actor or this person
- 15:27when they think I'm nothing more than a bug?
- 15:31Well, musicians feel the same way.
- 15:33And that's how I feel when I'm working with narcissistic,
- 15:37untalented pieces of trash. I just, I don't want to do it.
- 15:42But remember, remember I tried, I tried.
- 15:47And I've also tried to be friends with people like this
- 15:50that are non believers and you just can't.
- 15:53They fried their brains. Say most likely we'll end up on
- 15:57alcohol and they'll be one of those musicians you hear about
- 16:00one day that, you know, drowned in the hot tub and, you know,
- 16:06suffocated on their own vomit from doing too many drugs.
- 16:10I just don't want that kind of story, you know, the king on the
- 16:15toilet dying from taking a shit kind of story.
- 16:18You know what I mean? That's not mockery towards all
- 16:22this, but that's how we went out, ladies and gentlemen.
- 16:27All right, Well, I think I've said enough.
- 16:30Remember, as always, you can go over to my radio station and
- 16:33leave comments and ask me questions and I'll be more than
- 16:36happy to from time to time make videos responding to people and
- 16:41your interest. All right.
- 16:46Oh, and one last thing, If you are one of these type of people
- 16:51who believe the universe came from nothing and you believe
- 16:54that you were born from the womb of a baboon, yeah, get help.
