You Get A Little Extra When You Watch TV

    Today's Song To Chew is YOU GET A LITTLE EXTRA WHEY YOU WATCH TV, from my 1983 "Wha D'Ya Wanna Do?" album.  It's about all the hidden messages delivered to us constantly through our televisions and internet.  Commercials and news and sit-coms model for us how the rest of the world around us operates, right?  But we see what the producers and marketers want us to see!  Have you noticed how extremely 'happy' TV people are when they have a nice clean floor in their kitchen?  Have you ever felt 'that happy' after cleaning your kitchen floor?   Hmmm?  The behaviors we see on the media, begin to seem 'normal' to us.  Lots has changed in the last 40 year since I wrote this song.  We've become more aware that it isn't just men who can fix cars or only women who can take great care of kids, ... but those hidden messages just keep on coming.  So I wrote this little humorous tongue-in-cheek song 'way-back when', to help kids and families take a look at the 'not-so-subtle' messages about our culture that are being marketed to us every minute of every day.  You can find my CD's or downloads at peteralsop.com, or from any of the on-line sources.  I'm Peter Alsop.  Thanks for stopping by!* Subscribe to my weekly Songs To Chew podcast ~    https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/peter-alsops-songs-to-chew/id1446179156 * CAMPING WITH DADS - my newest album! ~     https://www.amazon.com/Camping-Dads-Peter-Alsop/dp/B08CS871QW/ref=sr_1_1 * E-mail/ Website ~ [email protected]  ~ https://www.peteralsop.com * www.FaceBook.com/WeLikePeterAlsop* Youtube.com/peteralsop ~ videos* Patreon.com/peteralsop ~ support my music, podcast & other artistic endeavors* CDs & downloads ~ http://www.peteralsop.com/music  Get full access to Peter Alsop’s Substack at peteralsop.substack.com/subscribe
