Review of People Don't Have Anything to Say

There seem to be a lot of folks confused about what this "piece" is. Let me give you my thoughts as a musician.
This is a piece of music.
Eno has done stuff like this. Zappa too.
You use snippets of speech to act like lyrics and melodies. When repeated these sound bites take on many of the chartcteristics of melodies. Pitch, rhythmic content,words.
Use it as you would use any other offbeat music.
