I used wireless earphones, but they are wired with each other, so I can simply put them on my neck like a necklace, huh. love them, cause I'm not afraid of losing one while riding unicycle or when snowboarding convenient isn't it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any music that's inflicted on others is bad. It doesn't matter whether I like the music or not. I have no idea what the crappy rap song was that everyone had to listen to during that peaceful ride down the river. It seemed to only have the lyrics "Yo mother f@ker" repeated endlessly but there might of been other words but they were lost in the distortion from the speaker. I'm probably in the wrong demographic but I do like a few rap songs : "Remember the name", "Fight the power" or Dave doing "Streatham" to name a few.

RockyTop Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 (edited) Ironically,....... As I get older ....... I don't mind the music as much. I just hear people having fun and that relaxes me. When I was younger it was an invasion of my personal space. So, I have been on both sides. As far as the music itself, some music really is outwardly bad in the way that it sends a message that you should do things that are wrong. From vandalizing a "Pretty Little Supped up Four Wheel Dive" to taking drugs and killing people. At least some songs hide their meaning like "watermelon sugar high" and "Brown eyed girl" Most people like my wife say> " I hate the words but I love the sound."

Oh wow these words are exactly the thing that's on my mind. Sometimes that's the reason why I choose to listen to French music. I cannot understand any word they say, but the music is taking me away. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sounds that it would be the perfect fit for what you are looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockyTop Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I don’t like riding with music on. My wife keeps quite music on as a way to warn pedestrians that she is coming up behind them. I wouldn’t mind riding with the theme music for Knight Rider. But without the voice over. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
