I think it sums me up... except for the last part... but there's still time
"Music obsessives are born every day. Their statistical number, though, is likely under the radar. The identifying gene usually reveals itself sometime during pre-adolescence, when the hapless youth discovers that
nothing beats the unique thrill of acquiring music, listening to it, and then sharing it with one's pals. Most people enter adolescence consuming the music sanctioned by their peer group and then mature into members of the dependable demographic targeted by "Oldies" radio. Music obsessives, however, live to maintain their pre-adolescent edge, always looking for
new music to love and share. The second part gets harder, since one's old pals long ago forsook the opportunity to share with the words "Give me Eagles or give me death." The obsessive always equated the Eagles with death. So he/she became a music store owner. Or a disc jockey. Or,
if he/she were particularly interested in losing money, started a record label."
