Reggae?

I ain’t Jamaican tho, so No!

I like to dance, to Dance, and the ensuing genres that follow there-of.

..actually I do dance to some reggae, but only the type I posted on here.. so modern styles, or mixed with another genre.

What genre I listen to depends on mood and current interests.

I know.

You do? You seen me dancing..?



I also listen to songs I dislike, and to happy songs.. just to take the micky out of them.

Feel-good songs (and movies) are equally dire.. I dislike my emotions being artificially wrenched/triggered. for they belong to only I, not Hollywood/movies or Sony/music.

I’m not always fond of the ‘DJ’, but I have taken to This one:



..and no Satyr, it isn’t because of the steel drums.. I cant usually stand them.

It breaks you out of your melancholy.

I find cheerful tunes dull. I need a few drinks to appreciate their artistry.
To be honest I rarely listen to music, outside my car...or some event, where it only serves as background....
Like a movie score.
I'm more visual.

But when I do listen it is to sad songs....and they sweep me away, so I prefer to listen to them alone.

A favourite dark song of mine.. listened to it plenty.. not that the words pertain to me, just the mood of it all. The part at 1.51 tho.

When in that place, I find the music preferable without too many words.. the fewer the better.

So.. tolerating hearing others, only when not in a certain type of place, of mind and mood.

Nice song choices tho.. grew up hearing most of them.

Is it about "imposing" into your mind?

I knew you would consider them too mainstream.
I connect to the other's experience, even if I personally cannot always relate.
Empathy.
The other's emotions wash over me and sweep me into them.

This is one of my favourites...
