But the music didn't stop when I turned off the machine. I hear it in my head when I'm brushing my teeth or waiting for the bus or taking a walk. I hum it under my breath. I tap my feet at my desk.
Last evening, I played the soundtrack while bouncing on the trampoline. That may be the best use yet for the music, which seems to carry one urgent message. Get up and dance! Turns out, I'm not the only one who feels this way. And the lyrics say it all:
I hear them everyday
The rhythms in the canyons that will never fade away
The ballads in the ballrooms left by those who came before
They say we got to want it more...
