since I've put that down I find it's completely necessary to listen to music to stimulate my mind... it's an absolute must..

I've been burn out before and enjoyed intake of jazz and such - however I haven't in a long time..

I tend to listen to new music 6 hrs a day..

for the past 4/5 years...

music before tv..

yeah same here.. too much. im quite lucky in that i enjoy listening to a really varied mix of music (as im sure lots of people on here do) so theres usually always something that will stimulate me in the right way if something else doesnt. still, there are often times when i get disenchanted about the new music that im listeining to at the time... i often turn to spoken word in that situation, comedy, commentary ect.. i find that really good. it not only gives you a break from constant tunes but also a different focus altogether

oh and most things before tv.unless it's lost. or the wire. i do love those shows!

Its just a phase. I believe that everyone needs the time to rest a bit, and enjoy something else.

It happened to me month ago...I was bored with everything I was listening, so I decided to stop forcing myself to enjoy something I really couldn't enjoy at that time... so I started to listen stuff I usually don't listen a lot like The Beatles, Pink Floyd, etc.

I also enjoy modern classical stuff like Hauschka at that time
