Sometimes I can’t sleep, these are my confessions…
// Music Industry \\
Ok, I’m not sure if I like songs anymore. Let me explain. The music today is interesting. Songs are literally played numerous times across multiple platforms. I’m sure the music executives hired research companies to do studies that say, if you play the song X amount of times per week the consumer will have no choice but to like it. A little bit like a torture mechanism. Im pretty convinced that’s what they’re doing lol. I’ll listen to a song for the first time and absolutely hate it. Then the song appears everywhere – ads, commercials, radio, stores, covered from different artists, a meme of the song, etc. By the end of the week, not only will I know every word to the song, I won’t be able to get it out of my head. I know there is a science behind listening to something enough times and it will stick. So does this mean that the song is any good? Or that were settling for songs because its forced upon us in subliminal or not so subliminal ways?
// Gas \\
I know gas is A LOT cheaper which I love. I’ve also noticed that I burn through this “cheap gas” a lot quicker then when gas was more expensive. Anyone notice this? Is it just me? Is there a correlation?
// Sports Uniforms \\
What in the world do sports teams use to get the stains out of the player uniforms? I would love to know the secret. Every time I watch a game whether its football, soccer, basketball baseball etc. their uniforms are immaculate. Where do they do their laundry and what magic formula do they use to stains out??
// Backup Singers \\
Has anyone noticed that backup singers 95% of the time sound better than the artist? I recently watched an artist perform “live” on Youtube and realize that the background singer should have been the main singer. They were hitting all the notes and pretty much carrying the artist throughout the song. Shout out to all the backup singers!!
// Pumpkin Spice Lattes \\
ENOUGH!!! Pumpkin/Pumpkin Spice Things I’ve Seen Just This Week Alone…
- Tampons
- Condoms
- Cereals
- Oatmeal
- Yogurt
- Shakes
- Pecans
- English Muffins
- Gum
- Cream Cheese
- Bagels
The list really goes on and on. Enough already. Too much overkill. Its not exciting anymore. Please just stop! (Looking at you Snapchat for having a Pumpkin Spiced Latte dedication)
// Accents \\
One night when I couldn’t sleep I was so bored, so I googled accents. I LOVE accents. So whenever someone attempts an American accent I’m always amused. This video is quite hilarious
. Check out what we sound like to the rest of the world. Some of them are actually good, others need to brush up. Overall, this is very funny and informative.
Until Next Time…
