Other Ears

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Does anyone else get that thing where they play a record they like to someone, actually physically with someone there in the room, and there's a silence while it plays, maybe a look of mild scepticism on the other person's face, and during the silence you find yourself listening with their ears and suddenly everything that MIGHT be lame or weak or crappy about the music is REALLY OBVIOUS to you?

I live around the corner from there, and once I heard Dawn Penn booming out of a car window when I was coming back from the shops. So perhaps another child in another car tried the same thing, and got away with it?

Maybe I was time travelling and didn't realise.
