I will never, ever, never ever, have music playing automatically when you come to my blog.
For one thing, I don't know how to do that. But besides that, if I did, I still wouldn't add it on. It's annoying, and usually I forget that my sound is turned way up and so I scare the shit outta myself....or it's nap slash bedtime for the kiddos and loud music blasting through my speakers is sure to wake someone up. Plus, usually the way to stop the music is hidden somewhere on the blog, and I frantically scroll through the website trying to stop the music, whilst at the same time trying to turn the sound down. It's a sure fire way to make sure I never stop by your blog again....so I will never do it to another person.
Unless the music playing is rock.
Then, I say 'hell yah!!' and rock out.
(BTW, this is not towards Subvet, whose blog I love - because guess what? His music player is conveniently at the top of his page. Plus, it's usually music I like.)
I know hwat you mean. I find it difficult to enjoy the music, if it doesn't go with the post.
ReplyDeletefor example if the music is a gentle "Pie Iesu" but the blogger is ranting. It throws the entire experience and beauty of the hymn out the window
Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated.
ReplyDeleteThere are a few pieces of music I've thought would be cool to play when people read my blog, but I always remember -- it's usually the most annoying thing in the world, even if the music is great!
ReplyDeleteAnd ditto what Puff said.
Exactly...I can't imagine trying to read what I rant about with choirs of heavenly angels singing at me...
