What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over.
Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss.
Did I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?

At Last

Etta James has passed away today.  I was hoping to post this in celebration of her birthday on the 25th but instead I will post it in celebration of her life.

25th January 1938 - 20th January 2012
