i think the subjectivity of emotion is what makes it so worthwhile to write about music. if you can express how a track makes you feel well, you should... if for no other reason than just to put out another perspective into the air. i mean, i guess it might be fun to talk only about the technical side of music, but that would seem to me to depreciate that music to the level of a hobby or a skill, rather than an art. i know you're not suggesting that, but the idea that writing about emotions in music is worthless is kind of weird... i mean, emotions at all times, about *anything* are subjective. we HAVE to write about them. rjck.//__________
