What do you use? Spotify, SoundCloud, I Tunes, YouTube Music, Apple Music? If it isn’t one of those four, come on now.
Okay, but seriously. I don’t understand music love… and I soon might need a ‘music’ synonym.
Here are the 5 things I do not feel nor understand when it comes to music, but that others do.
1. They can listen to music at any time. How can a person always be in the mood!? Every time you pass by them: ° ♬ · ♪. In public, I constantly hear beats in people’s earphones and I wonder how they do it. I just can’t enjoy playing music in public places while people are walking everywhere and with different things happening all around me.
2. They get their tunes on WHILE WORKING. Since when can the brain read, write an essay, or do research while listening to music? Does music help you study? Who knows how they do it, but I surely can’t. When I zone in on something, music just sounds like noise and I can’t concentrate.
3. It “helps them when they’re sad.” Under YouTube music videos, there are often comments about how much a song has helped the individual through a hard time AND IT WOULD BE THE SADDEST SONG, with the saddest, slowest beat. How is a sad song helping someone during sad time!?
4. Why earphones and not a speaker? Specifically in their homes. People don’t seem to get uncomfortable with loud audio going directly into their ear canal. No, it won’t kill them, but a speaker fills the room and can intensify the ambience. Isn’t the gap between the sound and the ears nicer?
5. Different genres in the same playlist. Because I order mine by genre, and don’t put all my favorite songs in one place, I can’t imagine myself finishing a UB40 song then the next song being one from Ozuna. It’s either all reggae or all Latin trap for me. Also, some people don’t even have playlists; they choose each song manually. Does it not get tiring?
So, there you have it. Who’s or what did you think about as you read this?
