I’m really trying to work on this thing about giving music that friends recommend to me a chance.

I usually have this in-my-mind motivator that says “this band has been discovered already. you’re late to the party and no one is going to care about how great that one line is because they’ve been singing it for at least three days now.”

instead, I’m telling myself “fuck that. good music is good music. no matter who’s ears have heard it already or how many times it’s video is played on MTV.” and with that, i find the lazy song by bruno mars catchy and mildly enjoyable. and fuck you for thinking i’m gay for that.
