MYSTERY!
There's no mystery any more....I want more mystery!
Music was this...this...like...erm..well force i suppose. A mysterious force...how cool is that? A mysterious force. Mysterious forces are kinda interesting. You don't know where its going, it's exact origin is unknown....somewhere and sometime ancient...i've got a jungle in my mind...im not sure why...maybe cos i watched apocolypto last night...music might have started in a jungle...it may not have a single origin....i don't know....that's kind of the point. i like being able to imagine this stuff. think about it. even though a lot of people would say it has very little relevance. a lot of people don't care. that's fine...but i do.
Where was I?...oh yes
Music could make you feel something, say the things you wanted to say, the things you didn't know you wanted to say, show you inside someone you've never met and in doing so showed you inside yourself and you could share that with someone and that's an experience right there. It was kind of spiritual.
There were discoveries. Exciting discoveries. Moments and memories were created to verse chorus bridge three chord wonders. Tears were extracted. minds were opened. dances were danced oh how the dance was dance-tactularly danced. lip syncing...no more need be said
Where was I?...oh yes
the mystery
the force
ahem
I didn't know what was right and wrong...heck i didn't know that there was a right and a wrong.
I've lost my point
anyway
music, i think quite possibly has lost the magic mystery thing. It can't just be listened to and felt. It has to be thought about and analysed. Thinking and analysis is good...hang on. It has to be stripped down until it is just pieces and then puzzled back together...but i like knowing how things work and I am a fan of puzzles. I think the problem is that it has become solely about the puzzle and the feeling has become irrelevant. I guess if you look at a puzzle piece for long enough it's going to become boring. A giant puzzle that's been finished can be cool to see...it can be impressive but quite frankly if I've spent ages looking at the same picture, the same pieces, if my puzzle is big enough and cool enough to be impressive it would also have taken a long time to put together and if I've spent that long on it it's quite possible that I'll never want to see that damn picture again. I sure as hell won't be messing it up so I can do it again in a hurry. It's not about the picture that's been assembled it's about the pieces fitting together
fuck it where was I?...I've lost my point again
as far as ramblings go this was good
ok
I'm bored
