Indescribable

[deird_lj]

When I was thirteen, my favourite band was Take That. Mainly because they were the only one I'd heard of - and you had to have a favourite band, because when all your high school classmates asked you what kind of music you liked, "opera" wasn't an acceptable answer.

I was, overall, fairly clear about my taste in music. And remained so for several years.


Now?

My iPod includes:
- opera (still)
- Lily Allen
- the Bob the Builder soundtrack
- Billy Joel
- far too much country & western
- Jars of Clay
- Enya
- Madonna
- John Farnham
- The Dresden Dolls
- the Wicked soundtrack
- some acappella
- Queen
- Lady Gaga
- The Corrs
- Jonathan Coulton
- Evanescence
- Robbie Williams
- Avril Lavigne

What is my taste in music? I haven't got a clue. (But I don't like death metal or techno ...yet.)

Someday you'll like death metal and techno.

Congrats on winning at C2C!!!!!

Thanks!


Probably... but I hope it's a long time off. :)

Enya, yep. The Corrs, yep. Evanescence, yep. Plus some Jars of Clay (I love their hymn album) and some a capella. I believe if we were stuck together in a car, we could find something to suit us both. :)

[deird1]

Woo!


(Clearly we must make arrangements to, someday, be stuck in a car together.)

(Clearly! Something must be done about this. Alas, I have no expectations of visiting Oz anytime soon. Might you be jaunting to the States at some point?)

(And also, do people not from the U.S. say 'the States,' or is that a familiarity that strictly we Americans use?)

[deird1]

Not soon. When I can afford plane tickets, my first venture will be England.
...but America might end up as venture number two.


(No, strictly an Americanism. But we all understand what you mean.)

You could always get started with operatic metal (eg Within Temptation).

[deird1]

Own that already. :)

*strikes a pose*

I see NO Kane on your list.

*taps foot*

*grovels in apology*

I did try to get some, does that count?

[menomegirl.livejournal.com]

I suppose. Whenever you get your comp woes settled, let me know.

In the meantime, go here, look in the lower right-hand corner and download "The House Rules". It's free. :)

Yay Jonathan Coulton and the Dresden Dolls! :) And oh yeah, I'm an Evanescence fan too, ngl.

What is my taste in music?

Eclectic. :D

And never say never - I didn't think I'd ever have any contemporary R&B but recently Beyonce and Alicia Keys have been creeping onto my playlists.

yay for Take That! They were my teen-band, too...and have now reformed!
Heard any of their current stuff? Some nice songs there. :-)
PS- Dresden Dolls...any solo Amanda Palmer?
