Click “Create New Playlist”

So, what goes in to making a playist exactly? For me- there's always a mood to the playlist, a snazy title, and then I pick the 25 songs that best make my chosen mood come to life. Creating a playlist is easy I think.
Recently, my little sister fcked* over the computer and my brother had to completely restart it. Bye Bye all my pictures, Bye Bye all my music =|
I keep trying to find a program that will get all the music on my iPod back onto iTunes. (I mean, I paid for alot of music!) Aside from the paid for music- you want to know what that's a sign of? Never letting go. Which we all know I have issues with sometimes lol.
All the music on my iPod are old favorites. Artist I've never let go- like B5, Rihanna, En Vogue, JoJo. Movie soundtracks I can't get over- High School Musical, Dreamgirls.. And songs that represent moments in life I'd never forget- Can I Have This Dance, Smash Into You... Or my "StarBoy" playlist from my summer of Miles (: ... I am STUCK in the past and moving forward at the same time. How does that work?
My friend Orlando has this playlist he listens to when he's sad over his ex or his bestfriend who he's like madly in love with. And guess what's on that playlist? Songs of longing, songs of sadness, love lost songs. It's like- ARE YOU TRYING TO DEPRESS YOURSELF?!
But this is something we all do. Like instead of listening to Oh Happy Day from Sister Act, or Happy Face by Destiny's Child (see, stuck in the past lol) -- after a breakup we'd rather listen to Have You Ever by Brandy or Love Lost by Trey Songz. So now let's say I took Ola's iPod and completely recreated his playlist. When he got sad about a girl, and he reffered to music that told him it's ok, or even expressed the beauty of life. Would he feel different?
If I let go of all the music of my past, accepted that empty iTunes on my computer.. Started buying new music. Would something change?
Not a drastic change (clearly) but something about the way I think would change. I'm always complaining about new generation music sucking ass and missing the thruth of the 90's. To some extent I still think it rings truth, like 90's music was where it's at. But maybe it's about time we stop neglecting the aspects of the future we don't like. Stop ignoring things of the present. Officially let the past be.
So, I'm going to delete all the music on my iPod... (ok I'm lying. I have to keep some* classics like Piano Man by Brandy and Shes Got It Like That by B5) but dare I say Bye Bye High School Musical Soundtrack? And Hello Usher&Nikki's Little Freak (I'm sure that's the name of it) lol. I'm going to do it >_<
But someone should really take this challenge with meee !
Flying Off,
