Music Is My Porn

Been a long time since I have felt that way...it used to be my permanent MSN nickname at one time...and in the last few months I've gotten so out of touch with my music, it just ain't funny...wonder how I did without it..and why I let foreign influences dictate the stuff played at home...despite differences with others at home I always heard exactly what I wanted to, and well not that people went onto to satyagraha in protest or anything...clueless as to why I made so many compromises as far as my music is concerned...
Anyways today morning after a VERY looooooooong time I woke up early to study (partly coz Kunu threatened to stay up all night in order to give me a wake-up call if I didn't start waking up early to study!!!) and as is normal with me I put on the TV for some music...in those wee hours of the morning the music channels generally play classics...most of my favourites...so till 7 am I was listening to that...
It's been ages since I heard Madonna's 'I Remember' - my family is filled with Madonna fans...all my cousins were in their 20s when Madonna was the Queen of Pop, so I've grown up hearing her songs and can recognise most of them with just a single note...infact she is perhaps the only Western singer my mother also recognises by voice alone...she doesn't need a video and face to accompany the voice to say it's Madonna's song!!! Anyways...so as I was saying, oddly enough loyalty to Madonna is so deep that even though I'm not too fond of her newer stuff, I always give her a chance and end up getting accustomed to the new sounds (atleast), even if I don't fall in love with the song! The one I heard this morng was a big fav when it was released back in the early 90s, along with 'Rain'....
Later I was listening to my CDs of Oldies....songs like 'Doo wah diddy', 'Tell Laura I love her', 'Speedy gonzales', 'Georgy Girl', 'Summer Holiday', 'There's a kind of Hush', 'Smoke Gets in your eyes', 'Raindrops keep falling on my head', 'Rhythm of the Rain' etc etc...there's a medely running through my head even now...and i'm feeling so incredibly content I could almost let out a purr of a contented cat!!!
