Don't you feel that sometimes you're tired of music?

[devilinside]

I get bored of music, sometimes I just want a bit of quality quiet time.

Same.

i definitely understand how this could happen when you're just collecting digital albums all day, it's pretty inevitable when you just download something without having a connection with it or being sure you could find one.  it happened to me a little bit back when i first started downloading, but i started to just seek out new, legitimate bands in genres that i really like/am in the mood for instead of just downloading random stuff.  Then i actually find a connection with the music (via analyzing structure/style and reading about them all i can) instead of just blankly listening to new things.  usually it's several genres/bands at a time, mixed in with the old stuff, so i haven't really had a problem with things losing replay value for a looong time.

stop collecting mp3s, connect with music.

^ exactly.

another reason why i still buy cd's.

I get tired of new music definitely and find new stuff quite hard to get into. I mean, it has to be really good for me to enjoy, otherwise I lose interest quite quickly. It also annoys me that there is so much middle-of-the-road dross around at the moment (aside from the few gems) both in mainstream music and in metal/hardcore - who signs these people?

[indychinoluv]

I can honestly say I've never got bored of music.

There are way too many flavours.

[fireflyry]

I think it happens to all people interested in music.

Agreed.

Music's a great friend to me but I think it's good to have a break from each other every so often.I tend to be pretty cyclic with all my interests and passions other than beer, weed and sex.

[theis]

OMG.

[whodunit?]

OMG.

yeah

My thoughts exactly for these 3... Man, I'm agreeing with Theis on 2 different stuff.... Wow !!   

[Caín]

absolutely. i have the feeling that i rarely can get into contemporary music. it just bores me. even productionwise.

[emehlen]

OMG.

Holy shit, wow.... phew! Anyways, what was I gonna say... Oh yeah

I get bored with music because it's hard to find new good music, even from bands I like.  Music today kinda sucks. I search relentlessly for good "old" music. I was deprived of some of the music in the 90's because I was listening to the mainstream shit, you know, like a lot of rap.  So now I am getting into some bands from that era. But a I only end up really gettin into like one or two songs and I play that shit out till I'm sick of it and ready to find more music.

[kalhan]

what happens to me sometimes is, i put one cd into my cd deck and half a song later i want to listen to something else... it's a horrible feeling...

i've kinda learned how to get over it... smoke half a joint, it'll make you peaceful, might make you sit in one place and enjoy whatever you're listening to. but it only lasts till you're stoned...

yeah, been there, i hate it when that happens, and i agree with someone who said "collect albums, not mp3s", so true. the first time i experienced this was when i was downloading a whole lot of mp3s. complete discographies, just so i could own a lot of music. i still have a load of music that i haven't heard... sucks.
