1. Is it possible to play music in a LD? I mean, wouldn't it be impossible? Do you have to remember every single little detail/beat/tone, whatever?
2. Say I play a video game while I'm awake. When in a LD is it possible to play the game but for real and be the main character? Wouldn't it be as hard as listening to the music? Would i have to remember every little thing and detail and script from the game?
3. Why is it that everytime I LD i just want to have sex. All my other goals vanish.
1. Yes. It might not be exactly like the actual music, but it is possible. If you're trying to will the music to start playing, it might be kind of tough, but I've had music just start playing in dreams that sounded exactly right, and if it's something simple that you're used to singing or playing, that would probably not be difficult either.
2. It is possible, but it would be unlikely that the dream would be exactly like the videogame. However, you could get it to be more than close enough.
The thing with dream control is, you don't do it all consciously. You just get it started, and the dream takes over for you. That's why you can have dreams with music and videogames.
3. The fact that you're thinking of more than one goal is likely the problem. None of your goals are engrained deeply enough into your mind, so you're forgetting them and following the first impulse that comes to mind. Remembering your goals is at least half as hard as lucid dreaming in the first place. That's why you should just pick one to focus on, and remind yourself of it throughout the day, perhaps whenever you do a reality check. This makes it much more likely that you'll remember at least one goal, and if you complete that one, you'll probably still be focused enough to remember some others.
Thanks heaps, I'll just focus on one goal for now, to meet my DG. And thanks with the other questions too, come to think of it. I can pretty much remember the song or game i was thinking about. It doesn't matter about the small details, only the ones that make it the same enough to be enjoyable.
Thanks again.
