I find that I can listen to music while I'm writing code, as long as the lyrics aren't particularly interesting. But only when I basically know what I'm going to do. I need silence for planning-type tasks.

"happy monday"? Isn't that an oxymoron? ^_^

Well... actually... YES. But it's mostly over now, so it's happy-ish.

Rock on! Piano music is so beautiful. I was forced into lessons when I was younger, but all I remember how to play is the 'can-can'.

I spend most of my time teaching small children whose parents force them to take lessons... :-)

I normally don't do music while writing because I can't multitask and it distracts, but maybe instrumental only would be better for me. :) Btw, I'm a musician too - jazz trombonist, music minor in college. :)

Ooooh well ever trombonist I've ever met has been pretty dang cool, so that explains a few things!! Hoorayyyy for musicians!!!

Great taste in music with KEANE! I'm a BIG fan too. BRILLIANT band and so refreshing to have a band that's piano driven! Enjoying watching your videos. Keep up the good work! :-)

Yes, I love Keane!!! Dying to see them in concert, but AZ is sadly not on their usual tour route...

Saw them in concert (last October actually) over here in the UK. They were absolutely BRILLIANT and performed virtually ever song off both albums! I have the "PLAY PIANO WITH" sheet music and am slowly learning how to play the songs...

gamwyn

Oh man I'm soooo jealous! My life will not be complete until I've been to a Keane concert. :-) I need Keane sheet music!
