They'll go nicely with that tweed jacket I bought last week.

Serious question:


When you think about music, or you have a tune going through your head, do you imagine all the tiny little parts? The different instruments? That intro or middle section? In other words, do you actually 'hear' the song itself, almost as if you're listening to it?

Sometimes like that, but not only that, I also count and examine the way the diffrence sections of the song work together. Or then again sometimes I will only focus on one instrement, like the drum beat, looking at the pattern and viewing what it's saying. This works especially well with guitar and someone that can play it with their soul. Sometimes, you would be suprized at what that soul is saying even know the person fails to be able to syntisize the words...

I also have several other ways I examine the music...

I'm that complex

I'm a bit like that. I think it comes from being in a choir years and years ago. () I can always start off in the same key as the actual song, even when it's not playing.

I used to work with this girl who - for want of a better description - was like a Mickey Mouse Club wannabe. (She was obsessed with Disney, in fact. ). She was all very 'drama' and 'pizzaz' and I think she thought she was going to be the next Britney Spears. Anyway, cos she'd had a lead role in a few amateur productions, of course she was a musical expert.

She was singing this song and (jokingly but serious) I said 'You're out of key'. You'd think I'd said she sounded like a strangled cat or something based on her reaction. She would not have it. But I was right. She was out of key.

Sweetheart, I grew up singing in my church's choirs too...you learn so much of value doing that, and learn it very well.

~From that, and for me, from my collection of Chaka Khan records.
