Anyone here listen to music? I mean really listen?
It is my savior. Literally. Many times I feel like the stresses of life, school, death, war and all that crap get me feeling bloated. Really stressed out.
All I have to do is turn on an Uncle Neil record, or Pearl Jam or Dylan or anyone else, and its all better.
When Ed says "its ok" I really believe it.
Many times I will be listening to a record in the dark, eyes closed, in awe. Many times I feel an out of body experience, where I lift off the bed and am staring at myself.
It is life affirming.
The news of war and death and trying to find myself in a world of meaninglessness and commericialism is tough. But when I get down, I just need to hear Jimi's guitar ramblings, or Dylans poetry or Sonic Youth's feedback and all it goes away...
Music, is a godsend
Music saved me.
To me its as important as breathing, and blood. I need it, daily, minute by minute, and every second. I NEED MUSIC!

It's the only reason I get up every afternoon"Stunned by my own reflection, It's looking back, sees me too clearly and I swore I'd never go there again, Not unlike a friend that politely drags you down,down,down"
When you see me on the street, yell out "FAVO!!!"
I've been to alot of Pearl Jam shows;So fucking what.0 -
I don't think I would be the person I am today without music. I love it. Music is my Boyfriend.Cock Fight.0

"Call me Ishmael. Some years ago- never mind how long precisely- having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me on shore, I thought I would sail about a little and see the watery part of the world." Herman Melville : Moby Dick0
