I've been listening to Ute Lemper sing "Little Water Song" for about an hour now. It is beginning to interfere with my life. I cannot game because that would be too far away from the speakers to hear them well. I cannot read because that would detract focus from the song. All I can do is listen and consider the horror of the story and the beauty of the melody.
I sometimes miss those younger years when I followed The Music Scene. But on reflection, I have found better music without the media outlets such as radio, television and press.
I used to have this friend, Charlie. He was obsessed with pop-culture. Everyday saw a different punk-rock t-shirt and some fashion statement or other. He kept his nose to the pop-culture grindstone looking out for anything that was the next generation/incarnation of hip. He always had the latest issue of NME or whatever and knew the latest gossip on who was working in what studio with who.
Somehow we lost touch with each other. Actually, that story is just too silly to go into. Anyway, without his constant influence, my interest in the music scene slowly evaporated. But oddly enough, I've found music I like much more intently than what Charlie and I would together discover digging through magazines and radio interviews, liner notes, and whatnot.
I am today very critical when I do happen across a live music show (at a local bar or whatever). I want to play with a group but it always takes time that not all the players can afford. I feel like I was going somewhere with this but got lost along the way.
Meh, sometimes I miss being in touch with the music scene.
