My addiction to Goodreads.I'm not sure it's healthy,but what do I care!

I joined Goodreads,a book review website that everyone should visit,in Janurary.I've read only 99 books(I don't mean to brag or anythin)!But hey,I'm still young.I've been going on ever since,joining groups,making friends and hunting for new books to devour.
 You see,the bad thing is that I've got my CSEC exams coming up and I'm on Goodreads almost everyday and blogger is proving to be a little addictive as well.My will power isn't that firm where my isolation from books and Goodreads are concerned,even if it's temporary.Well, my condition's called 'addiction' for a reason!

What Happened to the beautiful sound of music?

 I'm glad to say I'm not a fan of Linkin Park who is amongst the many who include obscene language in their "music" I believe some call it.I say it's noise, that's right noise pollution!I can't take the screaming some bands incorporate into their work!It's just frustrating!
 What happened with the fun,lively, beautiful music of yesterday(the 70's,80's and 90's also even before)?I prefer  to listen to the Beatles whole day!Oh,I'd listen to "Yesterday", "We can Work it Out" over and over again.Tell me who has ever heard of Paul Mauriat?Anyone?Someone? His  "I Love Choppin" is amazing, not to mention "Windy" and "Love is Blue"!You could drift off to this abyss of peace and quietness,where you could just ...just be.It's relaxing,soothing and a delight and special treat to the ears,my equivalent to chocolate,Caudbury Dream to be a bit more specific.
 Bach,Mozart,Miles Davis,Bob Acri and Debussy.It seems that most of  us young people of this generation think that that kind of music is for our dads and grampa's,basically the old timers.Well I've got news,I'm a teenager, a proud one too, who listens to them!Anyone can!
