.. I think its because

its relaxing. Ye, Lounge music is nice to just have in the background. I remember they played all day by the pool at the nicest hotel I've ever been to. My sister and I had just been over two weeks in Cuba, and so to relax a couple of days, we went to Cancun:



The funny thing, is that this wasn't even our hotel, it was the hotel next door. We just went there every day because it was so nice!

Anyways, back to the music and why I have begun to like this kind of music (lounge etc). I think its the 'right' kind of music in the right setting, just as some music is right at some parties, or when you're falling asleep and so on. I would rarely listen to lounge at parties. Just because I don't think its the fun type. But to relax, either its after work, in the morning or on th bus, ye: its great!

I'm like this with all music. For instance, my favorite music which is Post-Rock, I would never put on at parties, just because it isn't the right setting for that type of music. Post-Rock bands have looong, mostly instrumental songs and can be a little too long and 'boring' (?) for most people. Which is the reason why I don't play it. I don't need everybody to like the same as me, but I don't want others the mess the song up by being unpatient and switch in the middle of the song or something. The songs often build up to a sertain point were they take off, which I guess can have simularities with lounge,house etc. But when this is done in Post-Rock, I just get satisfied sort of. Or happy. And so, I mostly listen to this music by myself, or with somebody that can appreciate the same kind. This photo I took at a concert at one of my favorite Post-R bands which actually came to Oslo:
