What would we do without music?
Have you ever thought about this?
Have you ever thought about this?
What if music were never invented?
How would we sing praise?
Dance…
Dance…
Unwind…
Clean house…
How would we celebrate birthdays?
How different would our drive home be?
Now that we’re starting to brainstorm, do you see how much the world needs music?
The love of music (or at least the use of music) is something we all have in common…

No matter where we are in the globe…
No matter what language or genre…
Crazy when you think about it huh?
And, with that being said, I realize how much of an inspiration music can be to us in different areas in our lives.
Especially at the gym.
There’s nothing like some good “upbeat sound” to boil the blood.
And by the looks of the other people at the gym, I’d say they have to agree.

Practically everyone there listens to music while they work out.
And of course there is a selected few that choose to be “in the zone” quietly.
Well not in complete silence…
A gym is a gym.
I think it’s safe to assume that they all sound pretty much the same.
You know...
Grunting…
Weights banging together…
A few squeaky machines...
The sounds of busy feet…
Not to mention the music on the overhead music system.
Now, I don’t know if there is a “set station” that’s required to play at that dial and only that dial at all times…

But I heard something on the overhead that surly amused me today J
Now, I’d be surprised if somebody actually chose this particular satellite feed on purpose…
That’s why I was wondering if certain places have a required music selection that the company has to abide by.
Anyways…
As I’m turning on my iPod and tying my hair back, I couldn’t help but to notice…
The song went something like this…
“Not to particular…not to precise…cheeseburger in paradise”
What?!

Hahahaha!
Really?!
At the gym?!
Talk about motivation!
And boy does he (the artist) get into detail.
He talks about the bun being all warm…
The lettuce…
The tomatoes…
AND the pickles!
How could I forget these lyrics?
I've never heard a song like this...
Ever!
Not even on a fast food commercial…
But, I sure did at the gym!

I came home and googled the “punchline” and there you go.
The song is called Cheeseburger in Paradise, by Jimmy Buffett.
So, my guess is that no one noticed (except for me, of course)…
But that’s just a guess.
I’m assuming this because the gym is noisy and like I said before, practically everyone has their headphones on.
So there you go.
Music can be inspirational…
Or in this case, it might’ve inspired some to work “that much harder” and want to work that cheeseburger off…

Or
It might’ve inspired some to blow off their diet and head to the nearest drive-thru.
What do you think?
I’d love to hear your thoughts on this.
