Listening habits

kibbeh · 09-02-2016, 03:09 PM

i don't know if anyone else does this but sometimes when i'm listening to an album for the first time and i really like the first 2 or 3 songs, i'll just play those over and over again, without listening to the rest of the album. and then when i start to get sick of those songs, i'll play the whole album and listen to the rest of the tracks. its annoying, idk why i do it but oh well.

Right now I'm not listening to any music and trying to do so would feel like a chore. I'm going through a period where all music sounds stale and I just can't find any interest in listening to music. I see some members here that seem to listen to music every day and are always talking about new artist and their latest release and idk how they keep that up without taking a break or getting bored with the experience.

Though I periodically go through this phase where I get uninterested in music eventually I break out of it and go through a period where I get obsessed with a particular artist or genre, awhile ago I got obsessed with Kas product and only listened to new wave and later on I got obsessed the residents and only listened to experimental music but after I sucked each one dry now I moved on. I've come to notice that my music listening habits go through a cycle of being obsessed and then being completely disinterested but I have yet to figure out if this cycle comes from my current emotional state or if it's just I have a very selective taste.

Doesn't really happen to me with music. I sometimes go a month without playing any videogames, but music is a daily thing for me. Sometimes I don't feel like listening, but it goes away within just a few hours. If I'm not listening to anything for a few days, its just becausen I'm busy.

I don't binge on genres or artists so much, so maybe that's significant somehow? Looking for new stuff happens at least a few times a month too.

Sometimes I do worse than that and basically listen to the same solo several times without even hearing the whole song. It's no problem. The rest of the album isn't going anywhere.

I like my music how I like my women: touching me in ways you can't imagine.

I know.

I'll usually get hooked on a couple of songs for several days, then get bored, move on to another couple, and a few months later will be back to those first couple songs.

I've quite bad Tinnitus, so I listen to music or talk radio all day if I'm about the house. I try to listen to an album that's new to me each night after dinner.

That sucks. Mine is thankfully sort of moderate. It's often enough for me to just keep my mind occupied. But sometimes, I really don't like silence.

I don't mix it up much to me honest. Reggae, dancehall and hip hop in rotation 90% of the time.
