I am primarily a bass player, I love mixing dance music and am heavily bass influenced in that genre too.
However, when driving, I absolutely sing my head off. Everything from Ian Dury to Twelve Foot Ninja to Disclosure. Lyrics combined with good music have the power to bring me to tears. Tears of joy, sadness, even laughter. I think some of you dismiss this power unthinkingly.
I also dabble in writing poetry, but always with a rhythmic meter as if they were song lyrics.
