As of about a week ago, I think I understand the full appeal for music finally.
All of it.
It started with listening to a review of how bad Twilight is where they pointed out for basically the entire book, Bella has barely been described and that leaves the reader with an empty shell to fill, establishing themselves in place of her and thus reading as her.
Then it occurred to me this is how music is. I mean, you'll listen to a song and in the true egocentric way think "this artist is totally speaking to me". And that's the thing, you have no restraints for most songs. Been hurt in love? *Bam* you're now Damien Rice's voice and picture your own troubles with them.
And there's so much you can just change. Feeling happy now? Michael Bublé time!
Wanna be mellow? Maybe some Bob Marley or Duran Duran.
You are whatever role you WANT to be, even in the the music videos. Hell, with instrumental music you can literally imagine it all. What one person see's isn't quite the same as the rest and it brings the mood for you.
So basically music is the single least constrictive thing when it comes to it. Slipknot can make you happy, sad or angry. You make the story for the songs even when most of it is sung already. That's why you might watch a music video that's completely different to what you expected.
Show me some music that makes you happy :D

Ho ho ho. It's a Sataneshi Champion :P
I inked the drawing I did earlier (mainly because I don't think I can actually paint it properly) and then added a hat. See, I can play along.
I feel quite shit atm because I think I've run my body slightly too hard and I got sick...
Either way, I'm off out for the day and shall drink till I no longer feel. Which might take a while, but I'll survive.
Unfortunately I've gotta deal with a psychotic aunt and equally retarded cousin -_- So drinking will help dealing with any meal.
Are there many parts of your family you cannot stand? I can't stand most of mine.

Happiness in life can be like trying to catch smoke on film,
it's there and you can see it,
with all it's swirls and beauty,
but when you play it back,
it has been elusive, blurred,
and not how you remembered it......
thinking of all my lovelies:

I was walking to the milkbar and found a heart in the sidewalk. He said it's no coincidence.
