It's probably not surprising that there aren't more songs about white collar work. It's such unrewarding, safe, monotonous drivel. Maybe because we're all too embarrassed to try to romanticize it, and too depressed to make art out of it.
- krick 5y agoIf you ask me about "songs about white collar work", first thing that comes to my mind is this[0] (it's a cover, but I like this one better). It isn't about white collar work, of course, but white collar work is all about that song, I feel. And blue collar and whatever else — it's all about that song. The difference is that "blue collar" is about that song and a little bit of something else — like, you know, "being out in the field under all weather conditions". That's where the romanticism comes from. While "white collar" is only about that song. And pretending you didn't hear it, daily.
