Well, the time has come. I’m giving my iPod a makeover, but it’s not just because my music tastes have changed, it’s because I find myself more often than not using it socially, plugging it in for road trips, and it’s frustrating to feel like I don’t have a proper variety of music to offer people! It used to be that the iPod was just my personal music library, with clips of demos that I wanted to review and even some artists I hated — just to keep the good music in perspective. I had jazz on there that I never listened to, just because I felt I “ought” to (if one wants to be a jazz singer, after all!). I’ve kept music on there that I only used to listen to when trying to fall asleep, but I haven’t slept with music on for months. It’s time to get rid of the old and bring in the shiny, new music that I’m listening to now (Spotify is my favorite for discovering new tunes!) and music that my friends will enjoy along with me.
