As has been seen, I am a HUGE lover of music-playing an instrument, listening to it...if I had the guts for it, I'd probably dance to it!
I (literally) take it with me everywhere I go. It's a cheap MP3-from Satan's 5-and-dime (Walmart, if you must)-but it works. I can access the radio and my own music downloaded from the computer, and I can take pictures and record video...but I hardly ever need the video/pic stuff. HOWEVER, I can record songs from the radio, which is fabulous (for someone who doesn't have an iTunes account).
I go to school, and it takes me almost an hour and half just to get there, so guess what? I NEED MY MUSIC. This really revs me up for the day, and sometimes I am even just a wee bit more outgoing. KT Tunstall's "Suddenly I See", for instance, is fabulous! Sometimes I feel like it's talking about me (although not always), and I just feel like, "YES!!! I can conquer the world today!"
For Christmas there was an abundance of music to be had. One CD, in particular, Florence + the Machine's newest album-Ceremonials. Fabulous (as ever)!!!
I remember listening to my lovely (cheap) MP3 coming home. For those of you who don't live anywhere near me, IT'S COLD!!! But not cold enough for my heavy jacket-so I take a hoodie. But this particular day, the wind had picked up and I was getting chilled. I was almost home, and a song had finished on my MP3, and I decided I wanted to turn it off. But a very small voice in the back of my head said...
"STOP! If you turn that music off, you'll be even colder!"
Sure enough, I could feel a warmth radiat from my humble electronic. As the songs changed, a subtle chill settled on my bones, and I decided not to turn it off.
And I never have. My head constantly streams music 24/7-literally! In my dreams I hear it, and when I wake up, I have a new song in my head!
So for today, this is the song stuck in my head: Bedroom Hymns (FATM) As far as I'm concerned there is no sexual meaning (although I suppose you could take it that way-I TRY AND KEEP A CLEAN MIND!!!). She always has a good, driving beat, and I love it! Always have, and always will.
