  • The reason why I want my life to have a soundtrack

    Here is one of my many random thoughts I had today. I was on the bus, earbuds in, listening to my playlist on spotify. The bus was crowded, I was tired as hell and everything stressed me out. For context, my playlist is a mess. I like many different genres of music and I never made playlists for certain moods or situations. Because of that, I have to skip a lot of songs in order to find one that fits the general vibe I’m feeling. Today was one of those days. A power metal song I normally love? Too agressive. An epic cover of my favorite disney song? Too emotional. Some random celtic song I found yesterday? Too happy. On days like this, I wish there was a soundtrack composed just for me and the situation I’m in. Some perfectly fitting music that follows me around everywhere I go. Something that’s epic and emotional, relaxing or just happy, depending on what I’m thinking about. In my opinion, music can describe emotions better than words or pictures. That’s why I love soundtracks in general. They tell me so much about a character. I know that my life is not very interesting over all, and I wouldn’t want everyone to listen to it. It would just be cool to always have something perfect to listen to so I can drown out the annoying stuff around me and the voices of people I don’t want to hear. What do you think about that? Would you like a personal soundtrack or do you enjoy silence more?
