I’ll just save them in this folder so that I can totally come back later and read them.

In the last year or so I’ve gotten into vinyl records, cheap weird ones from thrift stores and stuff I’d never be exposed to in my normal searches.
So much terrible music but every once in a while I’ll find a gem of a song that I never would have ever heard otherwise, like the Gypsy Kings Volare:

I said all of that to say, I have more music to dig through than I can believe. It takes an intentional act of will to put an album onto the player and play it. I’m lucky to get to listen to 1 album a week if that.
I hated this song as a kid. I adoooooore it now.
For me it’s kind of like I’ll put down an album and it’s mostly forgettable crap right? I mean the sixties and seventies put out a lot of good music but they also put out a lot of junk.
But then in the midst of all of this junk all of a sudden a song will come on and it catches your attention and forces you to listen to it and it is so compelling and captivating that you can’t help but love it.
And right now it’s about one out of every 10 random albums has a song like that, but I love finding them.
