Odd combination, I know. But I spent time in my dentist's chair this morning getting my "adult prophy" (dentist-speak for regular cleaning) and brought my iPod with me.
I had it loaded for my workout tonight so it has (as always) an eclectic mix that ranges from Dido to DMX. Obviously, I start with the Dido and work up to the DMX.
The funny thing was that I noticed that as tense as I normally am in the dentist's chair (hate the bloody dentist) the intensity of the rap had a great cathartic feel to it. I never would have expected that. And I actually listened to the words (much better than hearing the scrape of steel tools on teeth).
I'll probably go out and buy an album or two now -- take that RIAA!!
