I think because I got tired of the same things. Now there are so many new artists to discover, as one commenter mentioned, Adelle. So here's to discovering music again!Midwest to Midlandshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05251533810918077310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72316245999049873.post-81316183198024811312011-03-11T21:34:11.588+00:002011-03-11T21:34:11.588+00:00There is nothing to lift the spirits like the musi...There is nothing to lift the spirits like the music of 1968! The energy and optimism in that music - just love it.<br />I remember when I was small, my Dad going around the house singing "Oh What a Beautiful Morning" all the time. After that I never heard him sing again! <br />Others in the family draw a blank, though my grandmother always sang, "You are My Sunshine,my only Sunshine..."<br />Lately, going to and from work in heavy traffic I listen to the radio frequency with both foreign language and music - don't ask me why! I have no idea, but I find it relaxing in the traffic. <br />Barry Manilow?

I listen to music a lot of the time especially when I am at my computer.

I spent a Saturday "ripping" my favourite CDs to my computer, making playlists and then transferring them to the MP3 player. I just plug my player in to the speakers (computer speakers work fine)and put it on shuffle. As I clean, read, or move about the house random favourite songs pop up and I feel as though I am listening to my favourite radio station. Then I bought a device that lets me plug my player into my car speakers. I am not a fan of walking around with earplugs in blocking out the sounds of everyday life, however the player is fantastic as a portable library of all music I love.Lynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15254709835001092835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72316245999049873.post-33905889028013658792011-03-09T00:37:15.447+00:002011-03-09T00:37:15.447+00:00Oh boy.

I remember I enjoyed listening to him because, as an alto, I could actually sing quite well with him! (I even saw him in concert at Red Rocks Park - see my past post on this concert arena if you are curious.) <br /><br />May I suggest one of my favorites?<br /><br />Jesse Cook is a classical-flamenco-rumba-gypsy music guitarist who will knock your socks off.

Try Jarvis Cocker's peerless Sunday show between 3pm and 6pm. Much of what he plays is far from new, but all of it is interesting.<br /><br />And I speak as one of those tragic 40-somethings who has never stopped going to gigs...Kolley Kibberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07055145770836351738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72316245999049873.post-74940100849902746722011-03-08T18:20:44.036+00:002011-03-08T18:20:44.036+00:00I'd get sick of Duffy too, yet I very rarely g...I'd get sick of Duffy too, yet I very rarely get sick of music even if I listen to a cd over and over.. in particular Pink but I think her music is probably not something you'd enjoy!<br />Currently I have Guns'n'Roses hits in my cd player.. and could listen to Sweet Child of Mine, or November Rain over and over as loud as possible.. !<br /><br />=) xxZanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12352913358894157685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-72316245999049873.post-54639338832174254992011-03-08T17:54:30.294+00:002011-03-08T17:54:30.294+00:00First!

I don't like to listen to anything in the car but at home I listen all day long, sometimes turning it down when I hear a bird out my window :) I even get up and dance around sometimes. I don't really listen to current music much but I do like Duffy and Adele. I'm also a big audiobook listener, books are always on my ipod.jeanette from everton terracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02025486213973874174noreply@blogger.com
