What I’m listening to on repeat 4
I have a whole list of more substantial blog posts ideas but it’s just that – a list of ideas! So you get fluff for your Friday (um, not that this blog is EVER more than that!)
I received some iTunes giftcards for my birthday so you know what that means – it’s back to buying songs*, baby!
I have a huge list of songs I want to buy, but the song I’m listening to on repeat is one that wasn’t even on my list – I saw it on the iTunes Top Songs List <— so basic
Imagine Dragons, “Natural” <— even more basic but whatever – I like popular music!!!
*Yes, yes, I know there are many streaming applications I can use “for free,” including Amazon Music, which I have, but do not use. I buy my music. And deal with the POS that is iTunes.
And more fluff – cat pics! I know that’s why you’re really here!
There is nothing wrong with liking popular music! There’s a reason why it’s popular, after all. Top 40 used to be just about all I would listen to, back in my pre-Broadway obsession days. And they play Imagine Dragons on the alternative station in Chicago, anyway, so it can’t be THAT basic
True true! Do you listen to it at all now that you are on your Broadway kick?
Ha, good point! And I haven’t heard this song overplayed on the radio yet!
Barely ever. My office building’s lobby usually plays popular music, and the gym has a tendency to, too, so I keep up on it that way, but that’s about it. Every now and again I’ll listen to Today’s Top Hits on Pandora, just to make sure I’m ~with it~, but that’s like…once a quarter. Ha.
Ha! Nice! You are fully devoted!!! Is this part of why you didn’t do Lolla this year?
Yes! Although I honestly didn’t realize that until, like, days before Lolla. Haha. I knew I didn’t have any interest in any of the artists playing, but I didn’t put the pieces together until right before the festival that the reason WHY I didn’t have any interest was because I don’t listen to much but Broadway anymore. Now, if one of the headliners had been the original cast of Hamilton, I would’ve been there in a heartbeat
I have never heard of Imagine Dragons so I will have to give it a listen. (I just asked my son and he has heard of them of course – I am so out of the loop!)
We all use Spotify here – the kids have a “family” subscription and I use the free version, and we all like it.
Ha ha! Maybe when you hear one of their songs you will recognize them after all!
