I guess not.


I made myself a comp. CD last night for the car, and Jeff Buckley is followed by the Ink Spots, and Massive Attack appear just after Dusty Springfield, and just before Hot Butter, so I defy anyone to judge me by my musical tastes!

But I would say this does say something about you Andy... that maybe you like to experience new things, and keep an open mind??....


I think the problem is the word Judge... it implies a negative. And musical tastes can change throughout life... But having said that, I'd say all Westlife fans have no imagination and need to hear some real talented musicians....!! (ooh wait for the Westlife fans to have a go at me.... bring it on! Lol!)

to me it says you both have taste, could the same be said about people who go out and buy girls aloud, or that really really annoying frog?

I am afraid I am a little judgemental on those whose musical tastes have not gone beyond, say, Queen or REM, even Westlife and Girls Aloud. Of course I don't mean any harm and it never is mentioned but inside I may feel "how can you not know more" as there is so much more to know. Then again, people have different interests and mine is music.


I never get how some of the teenagers I work with can be passing around James Blunt and other 'slowies' - what happened to teen angst and rebellion. Maybe I hanker for the days of the Clash et al.

I have impeccable music taste and anyone who puts Jeff Buckley on their list would be a friend of mine.


Krunk a new concept to me is not listened to by those who I mix with. We have a particularly chavvy estate in my town and its not a bit of good old indie blasting out of their windows.

Oh and I am the biggest musical snob going. I openly smirk at stuff i think is cr@p

goodsoulette i am also a music snob!! whats krunk?

i listen to pretty much anything i think is good...no matter wot genre, i used to smirk at rap calling it trash but there are some songs with good beats and such and i have a passion for classical music...and rock(of all types, except pop/rock) wot does that say about me? i have no idea!

Yesterday I went on a long drive and my music varied from Il Divo, Shayne Ward, Billy Joel,and finishing with Queen. If it had gone any longer I don't know what would have been next. So what does that say about me?


I just play what appeals to my mood at the time.


Classical is good to keep the BP down! Stops me getting road rage!

In the nicest possible way mrs lady bug I would say it says you are about 20 yrs older than me and not quite cool enough to listen to radio 2. Each to their own though.
Question Author
im in to placebo, jeff buckley, rocco de luca, foo fighters, jesse malin, and love a bit of otis reading if the mood is right. what does that say about me goodsoulette?
loopy it says you should come have a night out with me cause you sound like a cool girl/guy to me. We can be snobby together then.
I listen to Death Metal
According to my 15 year son Krunk (or Crunk) is a combination of the words crazy drunk.
Anyway , my evenings listening:- The Smiths, Robert Cray, Steely Dan, The Clash, Springsteen and (The fantastic) Blue Nile.
Guess that says I'm middle aged with kids??

On my way to work this morning my iSpod threw up the following bands:


Marillion
The Senseless Things
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Reef
The Sisters of Mercy
Pure Reason Revolution
Hayseed Dixie
Billy Joel
Opeth
The Orb
Warrior Soul
Faith No More
Tori Amos
The Fun Lovin' Criminals
Blackfield
Coheed and Cambria and finally...
The Dhol Foundation


What does that say about me?
