The obvious question is what sort of music do you listen to? I can't imagine anyone getting emotional over most EDM, for example. It's not what that shit is for. But I can't imagine anyone belting out New Model Army's I Love the World at the top of their lungs and not having a tear roll down their cheek at some point.i need Help wrote: ↑Sun Jan 29, 2023 6:59 pmI really don’t get emotional in listening to or producing music. I enjoy it, I appreciate it, but I can honestly say nothing music-wise, in itself, has really invoked any meaningful emotional response (ex. “This song makes me cry.”).
Which is a nice way of telling you you're not a wanker.I’m kinda like this in other areas so maybe its just a personality thing. A friend of mine actually helped me understand this better:
“Oh, I get it! You like food, but you don’t experience food.”
I'd say you are where I was in my teens, until I found the music that really gets to me, when I was 20. Up until then I had a decent collection for a teenager, and I definitely had a reputation in the barracks for listening to it loud, but it wasn't until one fateful day in early 1979 that music really affected me at all.
OK, rub it in. I'd love to get the opportunity to see them live. I'm sure I could put up with the smell for a couple of hours.vurt wrote: ↑Mon Jan 30, 2023 10:22 amwhich doesn't fit in with my image of nma fans at all. cider drinking, dreadlocked, clogged, crusties with dogs on a string, that smell of old sweat, diesel and patchouli.
i say that as someone who has seen them enough that now the smell doesn't make me wretch any more
