Melos-Observer (noun | philosophy)
Etymology: Middle English observer (to watch/keep) + Ancient Greek mélos (originally "a limb/part of a whole," later "melody").
A person who intentionally adopts a peripheral social position to achieve a state of heightened "self-presence" through the medium of music.
A practitioner of sonic-detachment, where one experiences the external world as a visual-auditory composition rather than a participatory event.
One who is "unseen but noticed"—holding a social presence that influences the "vibe" of a space without directing its action.

Get the f.o.s - faez obsessive syndrome mug.The SGOD refers to an unhealthy obsession with Selena Gomez. Who is affected by this obsession thinks that if a singer can’t do great vocals she can’t be a singer. Patients with this serious diagnosis focus more on her than they have to with their idols. This disorder is usually found in many Pop Canadian Singer stans and his wife stans (yes incredible! they have stans), Arianators & Lovatics. The only cure to this serious obsession is trying to focus on their favs business and leave the talented mrs Selena Marie Gomez alone.
