I’m listening to this bit of music keep building and it’s interesting, though maybe it has now peaked. Not sure. Regardless of whether it has or has not, it is something that I’m listening to and already I’m finding myself bored but at the same time it seems a fascinating bit of sound.

I listen to a lot of music and I wonder if perhaps I listen to it too much. I’m not sure but I do have to wonder sometimes. Sometimes I wonder if it takes up too much of my life. I can do other things when listening to music but I do spend a lot of time really listening to what I’m listening to and that is what I’m wondering about. Could it be a bad thing? Perhaps. Depends on how much it takes precedence over everything else, really.

This bit of music pushes climax, or at least platitudes and now it has grown dull and cold, and perhaps boring in a way. It still is doing things and that it still is is interesting but it’s feeling much like one big dramatic moment after another. Even the “softer” and “quieter” parts are bombastic in a way. That isn’t necessarily a bad thing, of course, but I find too many artists and groups want to push that without really doing anything. This feels like a series of big moments stuck together.

The sounds used are great, I think. It’s a bit kitsch but it’s great. What’s also great are the individual moments but at the same time it’s just kind of dull. It wears out and I have to wonder if this had to be one big song. Why couldn’t it be a few separate ones? Maybe it would work better.

Maybe the group had all these bits that they couldn’t flesh out so they stuck it all together. Maybe I’m looking into this the wrong way and the song works fine the way it is. I don’t know and, to be honest I didn’t want to write about it right now. There are other things that I wanted to crap on about but this is what seems to be drawing my attention and so this is what I am going to crap on about right now.

Well, maybe not. This is my exit and so I can get back to talking about the consumption of music as an overall thing. Maybe I don’t want to write about that either but that is what I’m going to write about in what few words I have left.

So anyway the song is fine. It’s a bit boring but it’s fine and maybe I consume too much music and maybe I need to find a balance.

I love the ocean but I should’ve studied music. Maybe I would’ve been able to get a job that way and not be in constant fear of unemployment leading to homelessness. Maybe I don’t consume enough music and so I should consume more.

The time it took to write five-hundred words: 06:35:60

I didn’t plan to do another of these today but it just kind of happened. I think that this reads better than the one I did earlier. It feels more flowing, but I also think this is too surface. On one hand I think I was struggling but on the other it wasn’t difficult to write what I was writing. Probably it was difficult to move from one thing to another. MAybe that’s the issue here.

Written at home.
