#30
I love music. Really, really a lot. Love music. But I’m finding mostly that the music I enjoy ends up being in another language. I find that songs in English….or perhaps it’s English rhythms….are far too..pop…y. I love Latin rhythms and Hawaiian ones. I love German and Hawaiian language. There’s something very calming in their tones. That calming effect may be what’s at the root of all this. I prefer music that settles me. Not quiets, but settles. German makes me think which is more than English can lay claim to.
