how is it chiche? thats insane. thats like saying "im tired of talking,
its so cliche. i want something newer!" talking about music in the
abstract is certainly not the most useful thing to do. discussing how it
was made and the specific point of different sounds or arrangement ideas
might be slightly better, but it still falls way short of really
understanding how a piece of music sounds like an emotion. its not really
a describable thing!
