How do you listen to music?

SM-Count · Post by **SM-Count** » Sat Mar 01, 2008 11:19 pm

My friend's always bring this point up when they see me playing games or doing homework or working out whenever I'm listening to music, I listen to the same song over and over again. No it doesn't mean I've only listen to one song in my entire life, but just that my play list for a period of time consists of one song.

The way my friend's listen to music is the 'normal' way as they put it, they have a play list of their favorite songs and then they play it. Or if they're feeling adventurous they'll press the shuffle button. They way I listen to songs is I'll listen to one song over and over again for a while, and then switch to another song and listen to that song over and over again for a couple of hours. Anyone else do that?

Guess I should specify that I do this with every song, old or new.

I listen to songs from one artist and when I get tired of the artist I switch. Hate mixing things. Shuffle ftl.

If i find a new song i really like...ya i will. But no i dont usually do that. usually i just play my entire list of songs (about 50 hours + :banghead:

) Or ill go to something im in the mood for, like just play one artist or something.

If there's a song I really like, I can listen to it for hours over a long period of time. And that's how I usually listen my music.

I have a 6 disc changer in my trunk and I am very lazy. I also forget about it before I get in the car to go somewhere. so I have to get really tired of the cd's before i actually change them out.

nah i dont do that, sounds kinda boring

what i do is usually make a playlist with all of my favorite songs and as time goes by i take some out and put others in
other times i just listen to one type of music only or to like 1 album
right now im into dragonball z and i managed to get the 9 music albums by bruce faulconer(200+ songs) so ill be listening to that for a while

I don't have one type of listenign style.. Sometime I just select a bunch of random sh1t and play it. Sometimes I listen to one artist. Sometime One album. Sometimes if I think a song is cool I'll play it several times. If I need some moto or running I'll listen to some cadences or other good sh1t.
Can'tr eally give one answer...

I can max. listen to 1 song like, 4, maybe 5 times in a row before I get bored of it. I mostly just put 1 album on repeat(longest I've done that is 15 times in a row ><), or put a generic music style on shuffle. Depends on my mood.

Shuffle.

I sing to myself.

Whenever I turn on my music in iSRO, I forget about after a while, I just can't concentrate on listening, talking to union, and grinding...

I do that!

But I mix also. I'll listen to one, then listen to a short playlist, but then I usually end up turning one to repeat, so yeah.

It all depends on my mood, if I'm feeling sad I listen to TSPO, if I'm having a "dreamer" day I listen to Explosions in the Sky. If I'm feeling a bit hardcore I just go with Disturbed or Finntroll. If I'm in a funny kind of mood I'll listen to Avenue Q or Tenacious-D

I usually make playlists with a band's entire discography then play it on shuffle. If there's a song I really like I'll add it a couple extra times so it plays more often.

SuicideGrl pressures me to acquire particular albums of her liking, I get them, she slowly counts down from 10, and once the last syllable of the last word is uttered, I click play. She offers commentary throughout the album enriching the experience and sheding light on facets I would never uncover - without her, my world would have no music; it would be utter silence, with the exception of suffering cries and painful woes.

That's how I experience my music.

I have 4 styles

1. i find an album and play it through on shuffle

2. i find one song and play it on repeat for a few hours

3. i just put everything on random

4. i get 7 different albums from different genres and put them on shuffle

Innovacious · Post by **Innovacious** » Sun Mar 02, 2008 9:13 am

sometimes i listen to an album on repeat (usually if its new or if i havnt heard many songs off of it in a while)

sometimes if i decide a song is now my favorite song (this changes multiple times a week) i will listen to that song on repeat

but most of the time i just listen to my 2.1 day long playlist on shuffle+repeat all

if im really really really really really bored i will listen to the 4.7 day playlist but that dosnt happen very offten at all.

I just listen to a couple of songs over and over again...

I had a time I just listened to Amy Winehouse Back to Black, F' Me Pumps, and Addicted...

Now I listen the whole time to Kate Nash with Foundations, Vanilla Sky's version of Umbrella, and this fella who made a parody of Umbrella...

Nice songs, tbh..

And I also tend to watch all those MADtv parody songs and programs...

God, it's funny..
