Among the conspiracies attributed to The Tavistock Institute was the creation of the 12-atonal system of "music".
This is defined (by wiki-another conspirator-come-lately) as "...a means of ensuring that all 12 notes of the chromatic scale are sounded as often as one another in a piece of music while preventing the emphasis of any[2] through the use of tone rows, an ordering of the 12 pitches. All 12 notes are thus given more or less equal importance, and the music avoids being in a key." link
The resulting music (which sounds like a cat walking on a piano played at high speed) was supposedly coupled with the planned social decay and youth rebellion that was The Beatles.
Now, as much as I love conspiracies, particularly those that accuse govt think tanks and NGOs of the most evil agendas, I really can't embrace those that just don't make sense to me. Below is an example of the 12 tone system by The Bill Evans Trio, and when I compare it to the absolutely "FAB" music that was released under The Beatles' name, it just doesn't add up.
Beatles tunes had a way of sticking in my head and making me green with envy because I didn't write the songs. But when I listened to the Bill Evans song the one thing I couldn't honestly say was "Catchy Melody! Can't Get It Out Of My Head!".

If you had the choice of ghost writing Beatles songs to further some long term evil lizard skullduggery or being famous (and rich, popular at parties and sexually exhausted) for your timeless compositions, which would you choose?
I mean, if someone had the ability to win every time at the track, in Vegas or in the stock market, would they be more likely to sell that skill for a salary and modest govt (or sheep dipped cover story) pension or, to go into biz for themselves?
Of course a truly demonic entity may have been able to touch the souls of young people with great rhythms, lyrics and melodies and remain immune to it, too. But, I find it implausible in the extreme that anyone who could compose timely tunes with such mass appeal would choose to function as an anonymous bureaucrat/enemy agent in some lofty British circle jerk of an institute.
Constraints such as having to use each note in equal proportion, regardless of it's public image, has done for music what the frankfurt school did for world peace.

Well said.
Suddenly a musical art form becomes an exercise in absurdity and an insult to the western ear.
I loved that song as a kid. It was a hit even before I started playing the mandatory (in VA public skewlz) 4th grade song flute and I certainly never sang the Japanese lyrics. But, years later I learned the chords and hummed the beautiful melody for my own nostalgic enjoyment.
I'm sure you know that Kyu Sakamoto was one of the victims of the 1985 crash of Japan Airlines Flight 123.
The President of JAL resigned in disgrace and the maintenance manager committed suicide, presumably because the shame of 520 deaths caused by an airframe that had seen too many pressurizations was more than a honorable Jap could live with.
I have since located photos of Kyu Sakamoto and viewed them with sadness as I listened to that beautiful song.
My first "guitar" was a Conn flute. A flute that cost the students $5 some 50-odd years ago sells for $2.49 now. I have to wonder if they were kicking back shekels to the crooked Confederates who invariably gravitated toward govt administrative jobs and budgets, like the school's mandatory flute program. My first flute was black but my next one was the nicest color of blue, and I wish I still had it.
