Which songs or bands tell you to move to the next channel or change record or CD? My alphabet starts from Air Supply -- replace with something else IMMEDIATELY! Sam Cooke believe it or not Barry Manilow Ramons Luis Armstrong Neil Young Bob Dylan Rolling Stones Most of Beatles.
I do not neglect Shostakovich and have no relationship with God. I let Him do His own business and He lets me do My own business without pressuring one another. I believe it's not bad at all. Anything I needed in my life I found I can help myself much better and faster than asking Him to do or create that.
Most of the music heard on The Voice. I'm into Classical, Jazz and Hillbilly (old fashioned fiddle, toe tapping stuff, based on music from the British Isles).
Czarivey, hang in there! I can pass on Bach as well. Actually I'd never turn it off, but I do find it boring.
Very cool thread. Mapman, for me only Bruce's " Born In the USA". That tune is a switcher. Czarivey, I like what I call "Classic Country" and bluegrass but I can't stand the newer stuff. I don't like rap, hip hop and such. Fact, I only listen to classical or NPR radio these days. All my local rock radio stations play the same old tired tunes.
most country, rap, and techno. Rap sounds like somebody is very unhappy with a broom stick you know where, techno gives me a headache, and country starts to make me depressed. I should put them all in a blender and see what comes out. That might be pretty . . . mmm? Actually I like a little country stuff, just a little. The happy stuff when everybody gets there truck, marriage and dog back.
I can usually find something redeeming in anyone gifted enough to put their music and talent on display for others. I may not "get" their message or like their tone, but I am not about to make a negative comment on what someone else does for a living and I think all art has value.
What purpose does a thread like this serve, except to stir up a big debate that cannot be won or even rationalized because every opinion is just that. A bunch of useless banter that will move towards being mean spirited.
How many more "Hall of Fame" musicians and singer songwriters make you run for the remote? Say's a lot about your music taste. (oops starting to get snarky...he,he,he).
Gettin' the popcorn and butter ready...... this should get good pretty quick!
