What are you listening to right now?<\/p>\n
I don’t mean right this second, unless you happen to be listening to something interesting as you read this. Right now, I happen to be listening to a playlist I created in iTunes. Playing now is a song called “Daydream in Blue,” by I Monster. I heard it on an episode of Hustle<\/em> (an excellent BBC series starring Adrian Lester that’s been replayed on AMC), and I downloaded it from the Apple Music Store. And now it’s over, and I’m listening to “I’ll Take You There” by the Staple Singers.<\/p>\n So “right now” is a tricky term. But in general, what have you been listening to lately? Is it a new album by a familiar artist? Is it an old favorite you haven’t listened to in a while? An audiobook of the newest Harry Potter? The Black Eyed Peas? A podcast on the Byzantine Empire? The Beatles? Chopin? The New York Times? The Dixie Chicks?<\/p>\n What are you listening to right now?<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" What are you listening to right now?
