I love listening to music (Irish music, Chinese, Phonk, Funk, not to be confused with Phonk lol,2000s rock, rap, etc) so much and I feel a bit bored reading in silence. And given the open anti-comm tendencies of my coworkers, I tend to read theory in my car. Only issue is songs in English throw me off because I kinda can’t listen to a song while also reading words. So sometimes instrumentals or foreign language songs are good (except for Sailing The Seas Depends on The Helmsman, I won’t be able to focus because it’s such a great song) to have in the background. I used to like reading along with a narrator voicing it on my phone but it gets annoying sometimes. Idk, what do yall do while reading? Do you ever have Tv on in the background?

    I also tend to listen to instrumental music in the background, lyrics are too distracting. I usually choose music to fit the theme. For example, I just finished a book on the Sicilian Mafia, listened to Italian folk music as I did. Sets the scene
