Songs vs Albums

General — nibaq on February 11, 2007 at 23:35:22

This is something that has gotten to me with my friends and just other people. It really has been annoying me since way back during CDs when a friend would be jumping from song to do song, not even letting it complete and is already in a track 3 or 4 down.

I just couldn’t stand it. It really drove me up the wall, especially if I really enjoyed the song, and even when I enjoyed the whole album and would listen to it all the way thru and have it repeat. Now with DMP and such it is even more so. They are jumping from song to song from genre to genre without some sort of pattern or sense.

It seems they are looking for that part they enjoy and once they reach it move to the next one.

Granted that sometimes these occur in playlists or mixes but those are more controlled and accepted. There is a theme or feeling that comes with it and you want to enjoy the whole feel, and atleast you let the song play fully.

You see I am a albums person I love getting it and listening to it all the way thru and enjoying each song for its worth and get with the album. Yet lately it is even harder and harder to find an album that you can listen all the way thru without throwing it out and just keeping the one and if you are lucky two songs that you enjoy.

So are you an albums or a songs type person?

With Vista coming out people keep asking if they should buy it? I personally see no reason but after reading this article Interview with Hamad Darwish.

Hamad Darwish is a Kuwaiti photographer whose work was seen on Flickr by Microsoft and was approached to make five backgrounds for them.

He is a very talented photographer and has some amazing work check out some of his photos.

Where would you find these action against women?

  • Women are forced to sit in the back of the bus? If not, get beaten and spat at.
  • Bleach is thrown at women wearing “immoddest clothes”.
  • Clothing stores whose clothes are considered racy are burned down?
  • Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan or Israel?
