Jazz.

Jazz.
It's such a cool word type wise, and sounds awesome too.
Recently, I found myself falling in love with Jazz, the smooth saxes, the subtle drums, the echo of the high hats, and the gentle melodies of the piano keys.
When I was younger, I always had hated jazz, i found it dull and boring, it seemed so pointless. I thought, 'what good is a song if isn't exciting! More guitar! More Bass! More cowbell!' However, I've come to respect Jazz and it's laid back sound. If Jazz was a person, they'd be that friend thats always fashionably late, and seem quite apathetic to the little things around them, but are aware, and caring. Ohhhhhhhhh Jazz. To be honest, I think I have a bit of a crush on Jazz, it's just so calming, and powerful yet so low key. Theres this comforting element in listening to Jazz that is matched by none. You need to be patient to enjoy Jazz, and paitence is a virtue, I guess that would make Jazz virtuous! I love the really warm and relaxed Jazz, typically the slower Jazz, but I don't mind the funkier Jazz.
What do you guys think about Jazz? Do you have the patience for this genre? Or is just too dull for you? I kinda feel more sophiscated while listneing to Jazz, as if I belong in some upscale club, sipping on scotch and eating 20 dollar bite size chocolates. What are your thoughts?
