Old-fashioned
2 things occurred during today’s gym visit that seemed so out of place.
1) While walking in, one of the juicers at my gym was pulling up with his window rolled down. He was blasting Mariah Carey’s “Emotions”. It was released in 1991. That’s 17 years ago. Wow. I’m pretty sure none of Mariah Carey’s songs are classics and none deserve to be listened to 3 months after release, let alone 17 years.
2) Then, I noticed a different juiced up guy (he’s actually relatively hot and has a deep manly voice), hand another guy a CD with what he described as ”slammin’ music to work out to”.Who uses CD’s anymore?? I wonder if Mariah Carey was on it. Maybe I should just be satisfied that he knows how to burn a CD. That might automatically make him the smartest guy at the gym.
Ironically, my first CD ever was Mariah Carey’s “Emotions” back in 1991. I pawned it in 1995 for $2.

My first CD ever wasn’t - it was a collection of audio cassette tapes of medieval choir music. Got that in high school. But the next musical purchase was SpyoGyra’s Morning Dance - great jazz music.
Almost as good as Maynard Ferguson. :)
