What are your thoughts on:
Punk:i like the do it yourself thing,but playing fast irritates me...
Country:i like the newer country rock stuff
R & B: i like a lot of the stuff i heard in the 60's,motown,etc,but i rarely buy it
Rap:hate it
Classical:i rarely want to listen to it.it's too...removed and soulless,at least to my ears...maybe i'm listening to the wrong classical stuff...i know beethoven isn't soulless...but it's too hoity toity for me. i like raggeder stuff,which is why i like to see a live band who takes chances and screws up,and why i looooved the replacements.
Disco: it can be fun if i'm in the mood,if i have some memories attached!
Jazz:i like the old stuff,jazz piano and big bands,but not the newer stuff
Blues:yeah,when i'm in the mood for it.
Pop:i love a good pop song,but loathe bad ones...good=beatles,bad=britney
next entry: necessary spinning
Notes from readers :
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
we do like a little of the same music. to me, most newer stuff sounds like the band is trying to drown out the vocalist. You're a peach. maybe a pear of peaches. lol [goofyone9]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i love r.e.m.
and bob dylan too, although i don't know as much of his music. any suggestions on that as to what i should listen to? [Starphish]
