I hardly every listen to music anymore, I used to listen to music in my 20's.
I don't miss it.

[Keith]

Oh my

My music listening dropped waaaay off in my 30s. Not coincidentally, that was when I discovered podcasts, but also not coincidentally I had spent my 20s so insanely into making music myself that it came to feel like an addiction, so I burned out on it hard. I had studied song structure so much and so intensely that I couldn't listen to music without hearing the math behind it, which stripped a lot of music of its magic.

What I'm saying is if you ever have kids who seem like they might get into songwriting you should kill their dream ASAP.

(p.s. Pretty much the only music I enjoyed between 2005 and 2014 was whenever Chemda sang.)

Movies are to Chemda as music is to me. Loosely put. I hear music, I usually don't seek it. I like some of it. I don't know who does what music and I don't care. mostly.

Thank you so much Keith, Chemda, Xerxes, Matt, Shelawa, Jesse, and Christi ♥️

[Keith]

I will blast most of my music with my roommates around without caring, especially if I’m cooking or doing dishes. But I definitely try to keep it to stuff they would also be kind of into, I don’t need other people judging my depressing/emotional/indie favorites. And I only put on the B-52’s like once a month bc I’m polite.

Singing in the house is a whole other story. I’ve had to record some stuff for virtual gigs and I’m always half cringing when I’m letting it rip knowing they’re hearing every note, good or bad. I know they don’t give a shit but I give a shit. If one of them said to me “I heard you singing” with no other commentary I’d probably never sing again.

I get not wanting to play music out loud, I have also some problem with it.
Especially with songs I really love, I don’t want any negative remarks about them.

I would maybe think about it the next time I listen to them. I guess it has to do with not wanting
vulnerability Or something.
