Not sure what possessed me to start listening ot Bob Seger right after Armin Van Buuren, but I thought I wanted to listen to something different, to help me analyze some data here at work.
2 songs into my iTunes oldschool playlist and I feel depressed! But still I listen, Roll me away, Night Moves, Weve got Tonight, and I start feeling like I am back in the early 80's, it's midsummer and cornfields are all around me, dirt's kicking up from a dusty road where a pick up has just passed. It might be somewhere in rural Illinois, could be Indiana, or Iowa, but definitely the midwest. I start sulking, listening to Bob singing about being lonely, hardships, and that strum of the guitar. This was not the best choice to concentrate with, because I keep having these bouts of nostalgic memories, and then feeling like I have hard times, that I dont even have anymore. Music is so awesome, to put you in a mood, bring back memories, or have you make some that you never even had.
Ahh, I am saved, Bob is over now and ELO has taken over. Still back in the 80's, but a little more upbeat. (Fire on High)
