i used to have a $100/wk habit at the record store. i had to sneak them in the house because my sperm donor thought buying vinyl & pursuing my audio interests was not a worthwhile use of my time & intellect. imagine that...
moving forward, i believe my addiction is derived from 2 distinct character traits i seem to possess:
- i am completely fascinated by patterns & puzzles
- i can't stand hearing the same music repeatedly
sometimes i get this itch & i just have hear new music (new patterns). when i wasn't making my own that resulted in my voracious appetite for new vinyl, cassettes, CD's, & now digital audio (mp3's & the like).
it happened yesterday. i was supposed to get some rest before going out & i couldn't. i had get in the Refinery & do watido...
i don't need help, i need to make new fuel...LOL!
PEACE
...be calm...
I can't remember lyrics either; thanks for the insight that my mind may be focusing on the melody or pattern. There is a thread of sound that pleases my soul and mind and it crosses all music styles; I can't define it though. But I find it in Zeppelin to Gaye to Vivaldi. Check out my latest IPod addition: Andante from Concerto in D Minor for 2 Mandolins, sung by Bobby McFerrin with Yo Yo Ma on the cello.
