Do you know the feeling? Let me paint the situation. You are driving in a car. Listening to a CD. You feel the urge coming up to listen to a particular song on the CD. You get the CD cover. Look on the back to see what track it is and… NO TRACK NUMBERS! *Arggggg*
Why dear music artists? Why? It ain’t that much trouble to put the track number before the track… or after… or at least close to it for all I care… but give us something! Now am handling the steering wheel with my knee, holding the CD in one hand and going down the track numbers with the other hand… and when I am looking at the CD cover, I ain’t looking where I should be looking, the road (!!!), so a dangerous situation could occur! If something would happen and I was living in America, I could probably sue the band and become a millionaire… but I ain’t, so I just have to be friendly and ask… Please! Please put some numbers with the songs!!!

Oh, the CD that caused the problems this afternoon was the new one from Kane, Fearless. A Dutch rock band, but as I was told, “every country has it’s own Kane”, so not well known around Europe… But they make quite ok music. Their new CD is reasonably good, but I must say I expected it to be a bit better after reading some reviews about it… So I wasn’t jumping about it, and the missing track numbers didn’t help much! ;-)

PS. For all you people out there who got their driving license today, please know it’s NOT ok to drive with your knee, NOT ok to play with CD’s while driving and NOT ok to pay attention to anything other then the road!! Experience is required there, and even then it’s somewhat stupid! But that’s what you get when they don’t put on the track numbers! ;-)

Update (June 24, 2005):
Ok, I must say the CD does get better and better if you listen to it more often… My first opinion wasn’t correct. The CD is actually much better then just “reasonably good”!!
