Okay.

I would like to know why people care what other people listen to. People have different tastes, and it doesn't matter if you think a band that someone else likes sucks. It doesn't automatically make this person inferior. Sorry, just different tastes.

People listen to music for different reasons. I usually listen to it so that I can sort of.. experience it, interpret the rhythms, and whatnot. Music intended for listening rather than dancing or something. Sometimes I listen to music as background noise, or perhaps to help me get to sleep. Depends on what's going on.

Music expresses emotion, and a lot of people listen to it because it might be relatable. Depressed people will probably listen to depressing music, etc. Alternatively, music might cheer you up, or just.. whatever. It really doesn't matter what you like. We all interpret sound differently, so all musical preference is subjective.

It's pretty pointless to argue about musical taste seriously.

I just think it kind of sucks when people attempt to make certain people feel bad for liking music they honestly enjoy. :P

Because I am right and they are wrong.

We've had this kind of topic before. Here's the lowdown on how it goes:

1. Why can't we all just agree to disagree?
2. Because just because we have different opinions doesn't mean we can't express them.
3. Yes but do you have to be such a dick about it?
4. Yes. Yes I do.
5. Anyway, we all know you hate Coldplay.
sp2. I know! And I'm never going to stop saying it, bitches!

No, no, no....

REVERB

In all seriousness, though, I've always felt that if someone truly express thier like/dislike of a band, then other people can then tell thier tastes, so if they recommend a band, you'll know whether thier "good" is your "good" or not. At least that's what I take from it usually. People can talk shit about the bands I love all they want. I just won't listen to them when they recommend music later down the road.

For example, I am, and forever will be, a HUGE nine inch nails fan. I've seen threads ripping them apart. Feh. Oh well. I don't agree with those people then. I guess I'm just really easy going when it comes to this stuff.

I believe that opinions are the ONLY thing that people can argue about.

One can hardly argue against facts.

And that fact is that my musical taste is better than dongs.

And, regardless of how politically correct you want to be, you can often tell a lot about people from what they listen to. From past experience, I've found that mainstream pop-punk and gangsta rap fans tend to be on the less priviledged end of the maturity scale (in slightly different ways). People who are into synth pop, and 8 bit tend to be more interesting, left of centre type people. The important word there is tend, you have to remember that people generally don't follow rules.

I'm listening to techno remixes of Burzum songs that I mixed myself.

Clearly I am on a plain of musical taste far, far above (or at least beyond) the comprehension of you all.

Also, being nice to people sounds like political correctness, and political correctness is the suck. How about, lets be nasty to people wittily. That's much more fun.

Kai · « **Reply #15 on:** 30 Sep 2005, 09:08 »

I'm going to quote myself because I fucking can.

"I'm as politically incorrect as the Russians are poor."

Needless to say, there was, by pure coincedence, a Russian girl nearby. I don't think she heard, but still.

My post is appearing in both dimensions and they are overlapping each other!

It only works if your post is the last post in a thread.

Or if you send me copious gifts of money, whiskey, fine cigars and luxury motor vehicles.

Se7en · « **Reply #25 on:** 30 Sep 2005, 11:03 »

What the hell is this thread about anyway? Isnt it pretty obvious that this forum is for talking about music, which is going to sometimes involve expressing opinions of it?

Theres nothing wrong with making judgements on a person by the music they listen to. People do the same based on how people dress, how they talk, and how they act. Personally, i see nothing wrong with considering a taste for crappy pop music as a sign of immaturity.

There is no end to the "different tastes" argument. Okay, so theres nothing wrong with liking good charlottle, that doesnt make you a immature child, its just different tastes. Theres nothing wrong with sleeping with your sister, that doesnt make you a sicko, its just different tastes. Theres nothing with wandering around the park dressed in a tutu and a collander, it doesnt make you insane, its just different tastes.

Hey, DAMMIT, I listen to pop-punk and am pretty sure I'm as mature as a 23 year old needs to be. I have a career chosen and am actually settling down into it, I am getting married AND already had a mortgage.

Mih, Your get out clause was pathetic, If people dont follow rules then how can you make a generalisation?
