Strange Frequencies - 2

What is the craziest you have done?
I'd say it was the time when i acheived the ultimate triumph over my fellow men.

I write this as the civilisation slowly dies and as men everywhere lose themselves to a force i have unleashed upon them.I was born totally tone deaf,lacking relative pitch, the ability to discriminate between musical notes, and i was always made conscious of this fact.My normal hearing is perfectly normal, but my inability to enjoy music really hurt, especially when i see others around me doing so.I always hated them for it.
Strangely i was always drawn to the branch of bio-acoustics, a new branch of science which studies the effects of sound waves on the human physiology, and of which i am now, unarguably the greatest scientist.
I closely studied why only a small fraction of songs become so popular among the masses and whether sounds of certain frequencies affect the brain differently.I studied the frequency profiles of most of the popular tunes and rhythms of the present day and probed them for patterns and other distinguishable features.
What i discovered was astounding.It seems that every song that was ever popular shared a characteristic pattern of a certain family of frequencies.This is something most of you would find ridiculously obvious, and some who would find it just ridiculous.But this is such a taken for granted assumption that precious little work was ever done on it.Before me, that is.
In a few months i had created what could be described as the greatest song ever.THE greatest ever.By putting together the most optimum mix of the frequencies of the family in the pattern i just mentioned, i created something that will ring in a man's brain for ever, a tune so good that it rings for ever in one's head, paralysing the brain into inactivity for good.
After that, it was just a simple of matter of getting a few microphones to transmit the song as a discrete digital signal to various broadcast receivers around the world, and now you probably know what i'm getting at.
