rediscovering radio
i love my phone!
today, as i drove, i inaugurated my car radio. indeed, it has been a long, long while since i surrendered my listening to the radio gods. today, i chose to give in. and as i tuned in to stations, one by one, i found within a deep sense of empowerment (really!). soon enough, i was captivated by the music. and very soon, i wanted to make a mental note of every song that i liked, so i could preserve this knowledge for posterity (maybe). as i struggled to come up with a means of making this mental note (considered paper, iphone notes, voice recording, etc. - not very mental, i suppose), i suddenly realized it was the perfect use scenario for shazam - my iphone application that recognizes tunes. oh, for serendipitous discoveries. i could've jumped for joy :).
post-discovery, i share with you the songs i thence enjoyed on 97.3 fm (if shazam is to be believed):
