exactly (: too dreamlike, or wonderful.  i've been thinking maybe music
has baggae attached to it... when i hear OTR, i remember staying up late
talking about what makes art beautiful to some people, what is good about
meteor showers, why couches make good objects, whether you could turn a
room into code, etc. all to the light of candles or dim lighting and some
tea... comepletely relaxing. or just hearing good jarring tunes from the
stereo while doing homework (half-heartedly at times).

now, when i hear king's x - it's got 'work' stamped all over it. wierd.  
nirvana i can listen to elsewhere, though.

my neighbor listens to talk radio. erk. nothing odder and more
insane-driving than hearing sub-audible words and phrases slip through the
walls and in between your if's... lucky for me, he likes my music, and
asks me to crank it sometimes. that and his hearing is bad (:
