The Spice of Life
July 11th 2006 04:48
I’ve been working since 8am today. That’s an early start for me, someone who rarely even has to be awake at that time. I should be tired, sick of working. Yet I’m not. And the most obvious reason why I’m not is the music.
There’s an iPod on shuffle going. There are about 20 000 songs on the iPod, so I haven’t heard the same one twice. Nor am I likely to. There are tunes of all genres, from every year between 1950 and 2006. And while I’ll admit I don’t like a few of the songs I’ve heard thus far, it certainly beats the radio (ads are very rarely enjoyable) and would in hands down against a mixed CD on repeat.
There is nothing worse than hearing the same 80 minutes of music for 8 hours in a row. Especially if that music is not to your liking. This way, I get to hear all different songs, some of which I haven’t heard before, and many of which I enjoy. There’s MJ, Jamiroquai, Janet Jackson, Santana, The Beatles... You name it, I’ll hear it. Which is great, because variety is, after all, the spice of life!

But hey, if you can listen to the same few songs (I have a couple of over-played playlists of about 20) over and over then.. That's cool!!
