Does this make me gay?

I’ve always been amazed at the power of music. During school I realized its power. Regardless of whether I’d had the crappest day ever, I’d put on a recording of the weekends trance sets from the local radio station and lay on my bed, eyes closed. I’d slowly but surely feel the music moving through my body like the way you feel hot coffee moving down your throat after that first sip. Except it wouldn’t stop in my stomach, within minutes my entire body & spirit would be lifted beyond my problems, beyond my troubled world and I’d be in a surreal happiness.

Music, and for me, uplifting trance, can bring about a sense of euphoria that couldn’t possibly be rivalled by the most intense of ecstacy trips. Its a feeling that goes beyond your blood stream into the very essense of you.

Is this just me?

Today, I found a yet unlistened to set by Armin van Buuren and Ferry Corsten. They were playing live at GodsKitchen in a rarely seen/heard back to back set. For the first time in a long time, I heard songs that sent that same familiar feeling rushing though me. I was left with what I thought was a lump in my throat. I’m talking about an emotional experience here, brought on by music!

Ah the bliss…The euphoria. All too soon, an hour and twenty minutes passed by and the set faded out to silence.

I took a deep breath, opened my eyes and came back to the reality of work. On my face, only a slight smile to remind me of my journey.

Music rocks my world.
