What Does Your Music Say About You?

I came upon this blog today.

It made me think about this blog post that I put up, in June. I remember thinking about every song that I listed... and wondering if it identified something about me..

I guess, in a way, it does identify me.. but not in the same ways that you may think.. it identifies my current mood, but not my everyday.

Do you wish to keep your song lists, play lists, etc private?

Is there something that you listen to, in your own, self-made, song lists that you'd rather the world not know about you?

What type of music would surprise you to know that I listened to or enjoyed, even?

The ringer on my cell phone is never on. Mostly because I am a chronic insomniac and I don't wish to be awakened by the phone, in a way, that makes my heart jump out of my chest. As it is, the vibration does wake me up, often.

However, when I purchased my phone, I told the salesman that I'd only buy the contract if it included the Black Eyed Peas ring tone. I did. He had it on his own personal phone, and gladly honored my request.

The problem with this is..

When I'm out with my girls, we start dancing and singing and don't answer the phone. LOL Worse, though, when I'm alone.. its so embarrassing!

I'll do the electric slide, to music playing from the ceiling speakers, at Home Depot, but I won't jam to Black Eyed Peas when I'm alone, in public. What does that say about me?

I've been caught with audiences watching my electric slide, and yet I still keep doing it..

What's the real difference?
