Right, one day down and, so far, so good – if a little boring. It’s hard for me to say how I felt yesterday. Obviously, it wasn’t the first day that I’ve ever gone without listening to music, but it probably was the first time I’ve made a conscious decision about it. And to be perfectly honest, I didn’t really miss it.
Today, on the other hand, might be a bit different. I’m not sure what the weather’s like where you are, but right here, in the heart of Surrey, summer has arrived – if only for a day – and, on a day like today, there’s nothing better than sitting out in the garden, pint in hand, with some good summer choons on the stereo.
Not for me. Instead, I’ll be sitting in the garden, pint in hand, with hundreds of second-long sections of random songs that I won’t be able to get out of my head. Ordinarily when that happens, you have two choices. Option A – You can listen to the whole song, enjoy it, and then move on to something else. Or you might choose Option B – Get sick to the back teeth of said song, listen to something else and, again, move on.
But what if you have no such options? Well, that’s what I’m about to find out. And if in a few hours I end up being tortured by the Killers in one ear and Jack Johnson in the other, don’t be surprised if I don’t post tomorrow.
