    It keeps traveling. If you splash some water, where does the wave go? Same question - it terms into something you can no longer see or hear… It never goes away. It becomes part of the world, forever

    Music is what you hear - but it was only ever sound waves

    I imagine a physicist would invoke entropy to describe the diffusion of pressure waves and vibration into other forms of energy. Neuroscience might explain the propagation of signals from the cochlea into the brain. A psychologist could hypothesise on the influence of music on our mood and ideas. A philosopher might talk about the influence of music on the way we build our society and how that feeds back into our music. In this way, the music never stops, it continues on as echos rippling through through the universe.

      I thought the sentence was going to lead to something like “It rolls up into the other 8 inaccessibly tiny dimensions of our space.”

      I love your oldschool explanation though!

    The best and the worst go straight to your brain and live there rent free.

    Unfortunately, nobody has figured out how toget rid of the bad songs that drown out the good ones.

    The truth in simple. I was annoyed to learn that there aren’t any crawlies that go back up your throath if you swallow toothpaste.

    After you listen to a song, the secret police from the RIAA come and lock it up in a small, dank cell given minimal sustenance, until the next time they can send it to some seedy hotel, suburban home, or automobile, to turn a trick and make them some more money, like some sort of whoo-re for the ears.

    It goes into your memory. That’s why you can remember a song that you heard before.
