My Not-So-Strange Addiction...
I've been watching this show on TLC called, "My Strange Addiction". I made me think about what I might be "addicted" to...mine wouldn't be eating clay pottery, eating household cleaners (Comet, hand soap, laundry detergent) or Strong Man lifting...mine would have to be listening to music. I pretty much am listening to music as much as I can...in the Jeep on the way to and from work, taking a shower or in the kitchen cooking. I think I've said it before, but the genre really doesn't matter, just the beat or emotion.
When it comes to the music that I listen to I'm pretty much all over the genre board. Older country, newer country, alternative, adult alternative, soft rock, hard rock, pop, some rap, etc... If it has a good beat, I'll probably listen to it. A section of my current playlist includes: "We R Who We R" by Ke$ha, "Teenage Dream" by Katy Perry, "Baby" and "Never Say Never" by Justin Bieber and "Barton Hollow" by The Civil Wars". Right now my influence is more Pop driven...I think that is driven by the warmer weather and my need for more upbeat music.
I'm pretty sure there are a lot worse things I could be "addicted" to. I still haven't figured out how people can manage to get work done without music playing, or at least a tune playing in their noggin. I've pretty much loved music since I was young, and I still have my favorites from when I was young also! Probably the one that sticks out the most from my younger years is "Tennessee Flat-Top Box" by Roseanne Cash. It was always a drop-what-you're-doing-to-listen type of song.
I've been a fan of music for many years, and I plan to keep it to that way. When they drag me to a nursing home due to old age, all I have to say is, They better have a radio when I get there!
