How to listen to a New Album
Greetings. I do not think I'm a music expert but I am a big fan and supporter of music. I like a lot of different types of music, I'm even willing to listen to other artists I normally don't listen to if someone recommends them. So as a music fan, I will now give my insight on how to listen to a new album by your favorite artist. Please follow these instruction carefully so you can enjoy your listening time.
1. DO NOT READ THE REVIEWS. Believe me, it will spoil your views on the album, you will get all nitpicky and if the reviews are not favorable, you'll start hating on some songs before you even hear them. Its not fair to you, the fan.
2. Listen to the entire album once. Even if you don't like the beat of one song, just listen to it. That way you'll at least given each song a fair chance.
3. Listen to it again but only the songs you found catchy.
4. Listen to only the songs you like for the rest of the week. Sing them out loud in your car. Recommend them to others... Blog about it, etc.
5. Stop listening to it. Give it a break. This step is very important, because if you don't stop, you will get tired of the songs and best believe, you will want to delete them from your MP3 player of choice, break the cd or even pull out the stereo from you car.*
6. After a break, you can put the songs you like on a rotation, shuffle, mix cd, etc.
7. Every 4 or 5 months, listen to the album again. You might find that you like a new song.
*There are a few exceptions to this rule. Some songs are just too good and no matter how many times you listen to them, they won't get old. Just some songs, maybe like 3.
