So I'm driving to work and this morning and opted for some contemporary, solo-piano classical music (Ryuichi Sakamoto - 'Playing The Piano' if anyone's interested).
Anyway, I'm doing 70mph on a 4 lane, dual carriage way A-Road and listening to this quiet, subtle, delicate piano music. I'm in a heightened state of relaxation due to the mood of the music, the sun was shining, it was a cool morning and there was a slight mist over the fields either side of the road. Very tranquil indeed. I look at the people over taking me, or those I'm over taking and I think they don't look half as at peace with the world right now, as me. I felt like I was driving in a Jaguar advert or something
.
Seriously, how many people can comfortably listen to gentle classical music at 70mph and not have it drowned out by wind, engine, tyre noise etc. Obviously the German power houses and the to an extent also the Swedes. But to get such an experience from the same people who build the HR-V and the Jazz.... Nice one guys... They know how to get you seriously considering brand loyalty for future purchases.
Anyway, that's my Monday morning ramble over and done with, better go and do some work :blush: .
