I think I'm a melomaniac.
I have a bizarre obsession with music, but the funny thing is, it's the only thing that keeps me focused every day. Often, I think I annoy my friends with how passionate I am about music. I can spend an entire conversation talking about music. I will put you on to a new singer or a song.
Spotify has been my jukebox since high school. Sure, it's costly, but Spotify knows me well.
Last summer, I spent two hours on Drake's new album "Scorpion" and trash-talked Kanye West's bizarre 7-track album, "Ye," but I have an eclectic taste—from psychedelic rock and R&B to songs from the 1980's and 2000's.
So, here's the big question: What songs are on my radar this month?
