Listening to music

A song so complex it sets itself beyond comparison. It goes further than the artist even imagined possible. Soothing, and flowing, up and down and in and out the lyrics pulse in my head. Disturbing my natural rhythm and bringing me to a place I've never been. This piece of art takes control. The bass line is solid and clear as a night sky free from human interaction. A choreographed ballet of musical genius and wild intuition allows this artist to play with a blank slate and create a new emotion. Each thump of electronic reverb accentuating each clammering cymbal and every crashing snare. One tom leads to the next and the guitar flows throughout. Overdrive blasting loud, but controlled. Up and down the frets, chords are alligned to perfection then hammered into a soloists dream. Rythm, power, and passion fuel the vocalist to tame his audience. Tame their thoughts and their hopes with words beyond comprehension. I'm compelled to learn more, compelled to listen with a kind of sick attention to detail. What did that pick scratch mean to you? How has it affected your life? What I take from this song will forever echo in my mind. It's message has a beat and that beat has driven purpose into my world. To those who constantly inspire and challenge me to dig further beyond the borderline, I thank you.
