Boy, that's a variant I don't want to catch!

I realize this sounds strange and animal-like, but are you male or female?

You animal ! ........

Luckily I don't listen to music when other people are around. I don't think I could — it's too personal.

Try getting out to some live performances.

I've been trying to put a mental picture of you together from your posts, but somehow you have remained androgynous in a way.   

Success!

Trying to make my bottom lip stop shaking. It's an embarrassing tic that happens when I listen to powerful music or feel an intense emotion. 

Listening to Mahler's 8th for the first time.

That used to be an issue for me (although now I can listen with my significant other, as I've known them long enough for it to be okay to not hide any embarassing emotional reactions) - but the biggest problem currently is the nature of orchestral music (large, indulgent). It's actually embarassing when someone walks in on me listening to it in a way that chamber music wouldn't be. And ironically, this could be avoided by listening on headphones, but orchestral music is the most damaging to the ears to listen to in that way - chamber music wouldn't be a problem, and yet, I have no need to listen to that on headphones... grr...

But of course, I always find ways to make mountains out of molehills.

LOL! i know exactly what you're talking about...... especially with Mahler or Penderecki; for me, it'll be in my head, i don't have to listen to the music while others are around. It just hits you and it's crazy, it's like the music contrasts with the boringness you see around you and you start making funny faces, lol

Sorry I did not want to frighten you...

"New Testament" in English has specifically biblical connotations, Harry.  Did you mean that you are re-drawing your will?

And if that's the case, log off and see to it with undivided attention
