    Amen to your thoughts. I have a some sort of radio or music player in every room of my house and I turn each on when I enter and leave them on even when I leave the house. I have MP3 players but am not sure how to load music.

    I'm seriously addicted to music too. I always need to have music playing when I'm working, when I'm at home alone or with friends, when I'm driving my car, even when I'm reading! A powerful song can transform my mood entirely just like drugs do to drug addicts. It can anesthetize me, relax me, make me fly or come crushing down on me like a ton of bricks leaving me for dead. Having been a single guy for sometime now music has been the source of some of the strongest emotions I've ever experienced for that period of time.

    Are you kidding????? I have " Dino- The Essential Dean Martin" and several Ole' Blue eyes albums downloaded, Billie Holliday and Etta James are two of my fave artists of all time!!!



    When I was 13 I spent my babysitting money for an Ink Spots tape cassette and I have been addicted ever since. "I don't want to set the world on Fire".



    I Wish it were possible to share your iTunes catalogue...do you use itunes??

    Hehe. Btw chiquita, do you like to listen to any old time stuff? Like Sinatra or Glenn Miller? I LOVE, LOVE old music, especially jazz and vocalists, like Dean Martin, Sinatra, Billie Holliday, etc.

    LOL@ Merily! You are too funny.



    My husband doesn't listen to music very often. In the car, he listens to news or sports, I firmly believe that is why he is so incredibley stressed.



    Well, part of the reason! I am sure living with me factors in there somewhere...lol...

    Thanks so much for reading and commenting, Mejoe.



    I can relate to your syncing issues...lol..when my daughter recieved an Ipod Touch for her birthday, I confiscated her 8G Nano, because my 16G Nano was full. I think we both need to invest in the the Classic! LOL

    I agree music is a big part of my life as well. I first went to college to be a DJ and play music on the radio. I decide half way through to change. But I have always had a big collection of variuos kinds of music. I need one of those Ipods that formerly has. My Ipod has 1008 songs and it tells me it is full and connot sync to the songs I have on my computer.I could not live without music.

    Thanks for the great story

    How eloquently put, as necessary as oxygen. I agree wholeheartedly. I rarely watch TV, but have music playing 95% of the time, even when I'm sleeping (it's the ONLY thing that helps stop the nightmares). I have an iPod classic (about 5 years old), it holds over 22,000 songs currently, and is only half full. If you enjoy ambient / mellow electronica / new age / space jazz / slow techno (like they usually put at the end of an album), check out the Hearts of Space website at hos.com

    Thanks sweets. I can enjoy listening to any kind of music as well. Which is why I need more than one iPod to hold my music...lol...



    My son has started listening to something called, "screamo", are you familiar with this genre? OMG. I think they have finally created a music genre that I cannot groove to...lol...
