I can't stand listening to my music anymore
56% Normal
5 Comments

Okay, I feel really guilty for listening to my favorite bands because I often hear how bad they are. I often test myself to see if I really like them, or I'm just liking them for image/not their music. There are tons of bands that I loved, and now think they suck because of what other people said.

Another issue I have is that I own a lot of band shirts, and I feel super guilty for wearing the shirt and not liking the band even though I did at one point.

I just feel so guilty of not really liking the music... even though I think I might. This thought crowds up my head and keeps me from enjoying it. I think I'm afraid of being a poser when it comes to music (other things besides music too but we won't get into that).

Is this normal? And is there anyway to get past it so I can love my music again?
Do you think it's normal?

Listen be true to yourself, listen to the music that you enjoy. Alot of people are cruel when it comes to regards of music. If you like listening to a certain genre and other people say bad stuff about it, that is their problem.

I listen to metal myself, people say that metal is the devil's music. Its not! If it was do you think metal cds would be selling like they are. If they were really about worshiping the devil than they would not sell them.

Everyone is different with what they listen to.

If you like it, listen to it!

Don't listen to other people, Music is a really personal thing. If you like it, you like it.

Try not to think about it too much. over analyzing stuff can get in the way of judgment... Just feel it out, then you'll know whether you like it or not.

You are completely normal. I am female and never had the slightest interest in sex UNTIL I fell in love. And then I was wildly, crazily sexual. For women, it is ALL about love.

You know...that's the beauty of MP3 players...each person listens to the music THEY like in an earphone. I listen to what I like and it is very eclectic. There are songs on my iPod that my friends probably would freak out if they knew they were there. But they are MY songs...it is MY iPod, so I put what I want there. Listen to what you want and like and "phooey" on everyone else!
