Aural Fixation

Rhythm. Melody. Harmony. Smooth lyrics. Music. Can’t get enough!  😀

So I got a new CD today, Robin Thicke’s Sex Therapy: The Session. The clean version, of course. It is the TRUTH! LOL. Dude got game, some young brothers need to take pointers and get their techniques right. Especially when it comes to how a real man treats a lady. I wonder, are all gentlemen in their 30s or older? Can’t be, there must be younger ones about.

In case you couldn’t tell already, I’m simply fascinated by relationships. Not flings, booty calls, one-night stands . . . no, no, no. The real relationships that require work from both parties in order to stay healthy, fun, loving, and fulfilling. I think that’s why I dig R&B so much. Although one hears a lot more about sex than anything else, but I guess that’s what sells. I like a balance between the physical and the intimate. But then it’s the emotions behind the actions that differentiate between the two, n’est ce pas? Oui.

Plugged In

You know how so many people are in their own worlds most of the time? On the road, in the bus or train, at the gym, at the mall, in cafes….we’ve got our ears plugged and our own things going on. Whilst planning an outing for later today, I realised I was already wondering what music I’d choose en route to my destination.

I can’t remember the last time I left the house without plugging in. Hmmm. It’s part of my routine now; second nature, reflex action. Walk out the door, head down the street, whip out earphones, get some music pumping. I create my own bubble, an insulating barrier that precludes interaction with anyone else unless it’s absolutely necessary.

A modern-day phenomenon, no?
