Listen a Little Closer
One of the cool things about music is its ability to surprise you. I wish that everyone could hear what I hear when I put on a new album. I hear the emotions expressed through the chord progressions and shifts. Anyone can discuss the plots and twists in a new movie or tv show, or even a book or poem for those of us that still read, but I feel all of this raw emotion in the music I listen to and it keeps me intrigued and involved. All of these artists are truly that, artists, even though they are not often given the kind of credit they deserve for example people pay millions for a work of art but a beautiful composition of music goes for $0.99. A friend of mine has a music library that grows exponentially compared to mine, but that's because the way we listen are completely different. I can listen to one song fifty times and still not get everything out of it. I guess the point is listen a little closer you might find something you missed and you might like it, maybe we can discuss it sometime, maybe you saw something I didn't.
