I just read some of the comments under the music subject posted a few days ago. Now, I am a four, and I can understand the attraction to all this slow sad depressing music. But I just don't like listening to that stuff. It makes me get even more sad and feel even more like I am one of a very small number of people in the world who feels the way I feel. It makes me feel more isolated than I already do!

I am a huge fan of the band Phish. They play lots of live concerts and a lot of their music is happy! Some of it is silly. Some of it is jazzy. Some is more guitar rock. They have the same types of fans as the Grateful Dead, though the music differs greatly.

I like the Dead too. They make me feel better than usual. If I am feeling alone and depressed or isolated, like there's no one else in the world who can relate to me, their music makes me feel like everything's going to me ok. Is this a "four" kind of feeling? Or does it seem like some other type? I wonder if it means I am moving toward another type, at least in terms of musical tastes.... or trying to move towards another type. I don't really know. Any thoughts on this??

p.s. I just attempted to post another message (my first) and it posted twice for some reason. Am I doing something wrong there? Sorry if this one posts twice too!! :-)
