I've wante a chance to come up to say this, because all my Chalupa friends say it... so...
Word!
Teeheeeee. ^________^ It's the simple things in life, really it is. ::giggles::
... I think what got me into hearing all kinds of music was the fact that I often had to ride in a car with people who had very different music tastes than myself. I got so damn SICK of hearing everyone else complain for hours about how they didn't like this or that (my GOSH how it grated on my nerves)... and so, generally, I figured that was not I wanted to become. Thus, I grew to like a little of it all... just not all the time (you have to agree that music is an outlet of mood most of the time... and when you're angry, you don't listen to sad songs, and when you're happy you don't listen to rage songs, etc). ^__^; I find Senta very sad for the fact that she considers all I listen to ... well, to be "boring" to the point of not telling me... but not just shutting up either. Where as the only music she listens to is loud, screaming alternative songs that - while I like, a great lot of the time - cannot listen to 24/7.
It almost hurts my feelings when she learns that some of my songs (esp "Gravity of Love" by Enigma and "Clubbed to Death" by Robb D... she loved both those) were really worthwhile and interesting and - GASP! - not only did I like them (love them, worship them, drool upon them) ... she had never heard of them and - GASP! - liked them too. One should never pass someone's music style off as "boring" without at least trying to understand why one likes such music, ne? I may not love country music like some people I know.... but sometimes it's really worthwhile and good and people who put it down all the time... well, don't they have anything better to do?
Like, uhm, listen to the music they like? ^__^;; (I don't mean to sound harsh, but gosh... in my social circle... I could either be worshiped or killed for liking certain music styles. It's insane and a little too radical - and I'm not talking in a good way!)
OH! On a somewhat related note, I went and got that "Pretty Enough" song. It's really lovely, Andrew. If you like that, you should try "Fade" by Lori Carson... it's pretty in (what I'd like to call) that same sort of way. Thanks for the music rec ... I love hearing new stuff, as always. ^_______^
And as for being spoiled... I thought I was going to DIE when Navi wasn't burning CDs. I'm not close to kidding. I almost never listen to anything but Mixes... either my own or the rare few that people have sent me over the years. They are really such a blessing.
Well, that, and my MP3 collection. No wonder Navi is so fussy... I overload the poor thing with so much music and videos that 28 of 34 gigs are completely taken. ::crashes to the floor, anime-style:: .... yeah. Ouch.
