    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.

    I think that's true of most people's music. Everyone thinks everyone else's music is sh***y. Or in my case, when I mention most of the stuff I listen to, I just get blank stares. (Makes me feel like a hipster :( )

      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.

        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.

        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.

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

              Rush and Zeppelin are bands that I honestly don't fully appreciate without... enhancers.

                  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/
