Oh and I agree, silence is sweet.  A lot of days I don't even listen to any commercial music, not even in my truck when I'm drivin.  In fact I once went most of a year without turning on the radio in my truck, even though I drove every day.

RTP you may have just over-done it.  Played it all to death.

I hope you feel better.

RTP2003:
Yeah, I'll be OK< I'm just irkked at everything right now.

starry-eyed pirate:
That's the way it goes sometimes...Do you ever watch silent movies ??  They're pretty cool.  I sometimes like to toke up for the midnight silent feature on TCM.  Le Terre is playin now...gotta go.

RTP2003:
Case in point--I just heard a song by Coldplay.  THose guys really suck, although I wiill admit to liking the song, "Clocks", which was the one I just heard, when it first came out.  I was also in a pretty fucked up headspace, and feeling kinda responsible for this close friend getting in a really fucked up situation (I wasn't, it was her own damn fault, something about a pretty face can make you torture yourself needlessly.  I hear she's a devout Catholic nowadays, goes to Mass every day.  Well god bless her soul!  And to think, the whole time we were getting freaky into drugs and sex, she had a whole complex of Catholic guilt built up--sweet!).  Anyway, so back to Coldplay, "Clocks", and why I hate rock and roll.  This chixck and I would make roadtrips to score prescription drugs, hitting up different places in different cities.  We'd get bored of our music and listen to local FM radio.  Once, for about a week, we coulddn't miss hearing the sonmg"Clocks" wherever we went--Tampa, Jacksonville, Orlando, Atlanta--we'd hear it everywhere we ewent.  It has a line in it, "Am I part of the cure/Or am I part of the disease".  This was back when I still pretty much subscribed to the 12 Step disease model, although I damn sure didn't  waste any of my time believing or practicing any of their other bullshit.  I just figured I was terminalluy a junkie, and fuck everything else.  Then I hooked up with this chick again, and she hadsd a kid since I had last seen her.  I felt like I was fucking her up, even being around her.  I wasa, but she was fucking me up, too, so wee're even.  I hope she's doing OK, and coping with the Catholic guilt and all.  Poor stupid girl.

Anyway, I hate rock and roll cause it brings up stupid memories that I feel like I have to purge by posting on some stupid survivor website 'cause I can't fucking sleep at night without drugs to knock  me out.

I think this thread has potential!

A long while back, I wanted to start a thread that consisted of people ragging on music they have an aversion to. I had been thinking about how certain music played on the radio was chapping my ass, so I PMed Verbal Razors to see if he was perhaps into starting that sort of thread. It's funny you mention Coldplay since they werepart of my inspiration for starting that thread back then:
