Tunes in my head: "it" by Genesis
Atmosphere: Satisfied
Expectations are a dangerous thing in this society.
We get ourselves all hyped up and we await some massive reward for waiting patientally for the months or weeks or days or minutes or seconds.
Unfortunately, the schizophrenic and impatient nature of our modern society means that we're never truly pleased with whatever comes.
It might be a package that people in the past would be pleased with, but due to our heightened expectations, as a result of the highly technological nature of our society, it doesn't really resonate.
I'm all for free distribution of music over the internet, but do we really appreciate music anymore? Probably not. The single is back in fashion, and I don't like this. There's no real appreciation for the album anymore. We listen to songs now...
We're always looking for the next craze, the next little thing to satisfy our urges. Nothing is ever enough, is it?
