  • Loathe radio

    I’ve spent some time focusing on making a road trip playlist. The reason for this is that I listen to music, but I really don’t like listening to the radio.

    I get the feeling that even the radio channels that advertise that they have just music, have just as much time with jingles saying they’ve only got music as the general radio host has actually introducing the songs.

    I’m not crazy about the radio hosts either.

    Things might be different if it comes in Spanish, Italian or French, I suppose. Out of the three, I only have a passing knowledge of French.

  • Strange taste in music

    I don’t know why, but while putting together a soundtrack for my upcoming summer vacation… it ends up being impossibly long. And even then, I’ve excluded a lot of the songs I might have included if I was driving on my own.

    It’s a weird and eclectic mix that will take us over the two weeks of driving. There are classical road songs, such as “On The Road Again”, but also Tori Amos, The Clash, Ride of the Valkyries… and the Muppet Show.

    I’m either going to be loved or hated by the end of the two weeks.
