Great question! I appreciate you expressing interest in my ways of thinking, so I will choose from your list even though none of the options are quite right. I think D is the closest to how it makes me feel. If I wanted to listen to a white man's take on 'African' music, I would just listen to Johnny Clegg though. And that's not a dig on Paul Simon.
I have one for you. __________
When I'm five minutes in to "Trapeze Swinger" by Iron & Wine, I am typically thinking to myself:
A) More, more, more!!! *violently shakes the nearest person by their lapels* B) Why am I crying in this CVS, bro? C) I should go to church. D) Oh, there's more? Hm. Not sure that there needs to be more. E) I've never listened to this song before.
