I'm really into lots of different artists right now. And usually there's a certain disposition between genres when it comes to "flow of mood". But, not so with me. I've been listening to Girl Talk, which is mash up hip hop with different "hit" songs, then going right into Death Cab. Or Saosin right into The Beatles. Maybe I'm listening to Coldplay and then throw on some Crystal Method, or something pulsey and electronic.
I like that Lady Gaga has worked really hard to get where she's at, given there's a lot of money tied up in her act, but she's making pop music, super dancy, and has that weird Bjork-style interaction with the public. She's like viral, without the flash in the pan sort of deal. Granted, she'll probably be out of the limelight in the next few years if she keeps making dance music, and any other kind of music might be too serious for her. Nonetheless, it's cool to think about it in principle. Working that hard, with what you've got, and getting to where you wanna go.
I would like to do the same things, but follow the mantra of:
Love God
Bless the Saints
Win the Lost
So, anything, even if it's not music, be devoted and worked hard for like that.
