Music Collection
-
Does anyone ever think about the diversity of their music collection? Just now, for instance, I listened to "Julia[^]" by John Lennon, "Bulls on Parade[^]" by Rage Against The Machine, "Save A Prayer[^]" by Duran Duran, and then "Murderers[^]" by John Frusciante. Links have been included in case you don't know any of the songs I mentioned. I expect that no one has ever heard the last one.
The United States invariably does the right thing, after having exhausted every other alternative. -Winston Churchill America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between. -Oscar Wilde Wow, even the French showed a little more spine than that before they got their sh*t pushed in.[^] -Colin Mullikin
Let's see...most of my collection is hard rock and metal, but I also have a few odder entries like polka and J-Pop. I also like to think of the diversity in terms of the number of languages I have songs in, off the top of my head: English (obviously), Japanese, Finnish, Russian, Romanian, and Latin.

It's funny that I have come to the conclusion that the music I listen to is deemed as shitty by most people. I appreciate good music, but listen to a lot of crap, too.

Pretty sure I have English, Spanish, German, Romanian, Latin, and Ozzy... :laugh:

A few years back I purchased Nirvana , Pink Floyd, Reba Macintyre, Beatles, 38 Special and Classical Music sampler in one purchase. The clerk asked if they were gifts, I told him no, for me. He shook his head and told me that was the strangest combination of CD’s he’d ever told. I think people who limit their choices to single genre are missing out on a world of good music. Luckily most of the people I know do have varied tastes in music. A good tune is just hard to resist no matter what genre.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

shuffling between Technical Death Metal[^] (:rolleyes:) , electronic music (all sorts), French pop music to rock and some more makes a nice day.
Nihil obstat

This happens to me occasionally, but its hard for people to make a case against Led Zeppelin... :laugh:

To put you into the correct frame of mind, that is, if you want to hear the music from the artists perspective when the song was ppenned. ;)

Wierd but true. :) Still do, I can purchase CDs anywhere from 0.50 to 3.00 USD. (New one's are more, but if I wait they'll get there) I can put the songs on any device that will accept mp3's. And I can play them in my car.

It was sad when they dropped Polka from the Grammy's. That was always Brave Combo's best chance. http://www.brave.com/bo/
