<p>Perhaps. I'm more of an alternative rock kind of girl.</p>

<p>i'm also a huge funk enthusiast
so
George Clinton, Parliament, funkadelic, louis johnson, james brown, bootsy collins</p>

<p>the strokes are cool, so are the kooks, weezer some songs i like, jack johnson, captain beefheart, velvet underground, GNR old skool bad assery, easy listening</p>

<p>man i needed like an entire page lawl</p>

<p>The musicians I put were Keane, Kanye West, and Beirut.</p>

<p>MITpwns, Cider and dpattz, I think we'd all get along great. </p>

<p>I put Muse, 30 Seconds to Mars, Jimmy Eat World. (Angst much? lol. I also like Linkin Park, RHCP, and 3DG though) </p>

<p>@llpitch: yayz for another Anberlin fan! That band is underappreciated. :)</p>

<p>I completely agree. It's like my favorite band lol.</p>

<p>Haha. Linkin Park was really the first band that I really liked pretty much. Although I always seem to not have something to listen to because of how fast I go through music.</p>

Ditto. Before Linkin Park, all I knew was what I occasionally heard on Radio Disney. -_-</p>

<p>But then I found Linkin Park (albeit six months after everyone else) and I became obsessed. I never every single pointless trivia there was to know about each band member. :)</p>

<p>Who'd have though I'd now be listening to Riccardo Chaily's interpretations of Edgard Var</p>

<p>Anberlin's "Good Drag" is pretty good ... but I need to hear more songs from Anberlin before I really learn to like them.</p>

<p>(Sorry I know I've been on this thread since like forever, but I just like talking about music in general)</p>

<p>arduouspallor - we would get along great! well, musically speaking of course :P</p>

<p>I hate their remake of that song. I like the old "The Feel Good Drag" a lot more.</p>

<p>They had an older version? I need to get my hands on it. I must really be missing out on something really good.</p>

<p>Anyone a fan of Joanna Newsom and Devendra Banhart?</p>

<p>You guys have such eclectic tastes, I would not be surprised!</p>

<p>I try to listen to all kinds of musical crap. I love music ...</p>

<p>But I hate to break it to you .. I've never heard of those singers. </p>

<p>But I'm interested in hearing some songs by them. Which ones do you recommend me to start with?</p>

<p>LOL. Well they are VERY obscure.</p>

<p>Well, I love Joanna Newsom's Sprout and the Bean. The song was featured in The Strangers and I just thought it was so beautiful that I researched the musical score of the movie to find who the song was by. She's also a harpist.</p>

<p>Devendra Benhart is a little out there, to say the least. I like Carmensita, I Feel Just Like a Child, and Little Yellow Spider. Also, he went out with Natalie Portman. Yes, that Natalie Portman. (You'll know what I mean when you see him!)</p>

<p>^OliveTree: </p>

<p>Thanks alot ... I can tell you luv your music too! I'm gonna try get my hands on some of those tracks... it's good to share music tastes. Music opens the mind IMO ... </p>

<p>Btw congrats on your Stanford admit. Where do you live in Michigan? (u can PM me) ... Great job! You should really be proud ... you represent us Michigan people! (not that we have that much to be proud of in our incredibly screwed up state)</p>

<p>I put Tryo, Kate Voegele, Jack Johnson, The Killers, and Queen on my app. Tried to cover almost every spectrum of music that I liked: reggae, pop, acoustic, alternative, and classical rock (except for classical, which I felt like was too stereotypical cause I'm Asian. And I hate metal, rap, and opera).</p>

<p>^ Don't you mean "classic" rock as opposed to "classic*al* rock"??? lolz</p>

<p>I don't even consider Queen classic rock, anyway (mostly because I hate them haha)</p>

<p>Try Led Zeppelin, ACDC, and good ol' Jimi Hendrix on for size. That's classic.</p>

<p>^no, thats the boring, cliche classic rock example bands (though i do have some love for hendrix)</p>

<p>try Primal Scream or Smashing Pumpkins, not classic rock, but is far more interesting than any of those bands</p>

<p>^ lol that is what I meant. I was thinking about how I wasn't putting on "classical" music.</p>

<p>Queen is DEFINITELY classic rock. Perhaps a more flamboyant and...different...band for the genre, but still classic rock.</p>

<p>AC/DC, I'm okay with. I was never fond of neither Zeppelin nor Hendrix. I like The Who, Beatles, Eagles, Nirvana (borderline classic rock, in my opinion), and Duran Duran, among others.</p>

<p>Queen is absolutely classic rock, and anyone who hates them is a heartless monster.</p>
