welp, i didnt go to school today on account of my spewing sickness everywhere, so i suppose i'll use this time to save my posting privileges. yea, i havent posted since august 18th, heh. sorry john.
so lets see. is there a difference between the two questions? of course. when someone asks, "name one band that you listen to when you're upset," they are asking for a band that they can listen to when THEY'RE upset. when someone asks, "name one band that you listen to when you want to feel good," they are asking for a band that they can listen to when THEY want to feel good. i think so, at least.
however, it depends on how people use the music, really. when people are upset, they can use music either to 1] keep them upset and in the mood, or 2] to feel better. so actually, someone could answer the questions with the answer. so i could see how the two questions are similar. but then, why not just change the question to, "name one band that you listen to when you're upset and want to feel good?"
whatever. it just depends on what the person asking is wanting for an answer. if i were to answer those questions, id say 1] radiohead, 2] whatever i'm obsessed with as of late. which would be hot hot heat and apples in stereo. ^__^
and the cd i'd drive to: modest mouse - lonesome crowded west. as of now.
but yea, i dont DRIVE, so no one cares.
