A pondering IHO today's music polls

Does disliking most people's music choices mean that yours are inherently superior, or that you're probably the one with the bad taste?  And does stopping to wonder this mean that you're officially no longer an emo youngster?

Re: A pondering IHO today's music polls

  • No, it just means that your senses are your own.
  • I don't think differing opinions necessarily have to be a value judgment. I like my music and don't like yours; you like yours and don't like mine. I find it hard to wrap my mind around the idea that this makes one or the other inherently "better." Different people just like different things.

    Unless you're talking about liking Justin Bieber or something, because that's just crap.

    But maybe this means I'm not an emo youngster either.

  • I saw that favorite song poll, and I swear, I was absolutely giddy at the opportunity to judge and categorize all of you based on the music you like.  Then I remembered that we weren't in high school any more, and it took the wind out of my sails.

  • I think all of my musical choices are ML side eye worthy.

    But I still rock out to oldies sometimes.  Does that redeem me?  Probably not. 

    Shot first, questions later.
  • Wtf is wrong Charlie Daniels? Not a damn thing!

  • Sometimes I listen to Paintings In My Mind by Tommy Page.  A little Weird Al. Oh, and Hinder's Lips of an Angel.

    I love that this was your pick. lol

    Kuus -  I still get insecure b/c my musical tastes are so mainstream.

  • The only music I judge people listening to is the really really hard core heavy metal that is a screaming loud noisy mess because I just don't see what there is to LIKE about it.  How can that be enjoyable to listen to!?!? 

    Other than that I say rock out with yo bad self!

  • I don't think it makes one better than the other.  My musical tastes are very odd by most people's views but hey, I like what I like. 
  • Different strokes. 

    The only music I don't like is country (although for some reason I can't turn off the radio if a Carrie Underwood or Taylor Swift song comes on, wtf) and slow-jam R&B. I don't think I'd end a friendship over it, though.

    Your two favorite songs made me sure that you're my soulmate.

  • I think I'm just realizing that if my music tastes get any more maudlin, I'm going to have to put on a knit hat with a pom on the top and go full on hipster.

    Seriously, people. If your faith in humanity is destroyed because your parents told you there was a Santa Claus and as it turns out there is no Santa Claus, you are an ignorant, hypersensitive cry baby with absolutely zero perspective. - UnderwaterRhymes
  • DMB makes my anus pucker.

    Yeah that's right my name's Yauch!
  • And I, too, would like to be judged on my song choices.

    He could papier-mache his house with his millions (250).  And your anus.

    I like precisely ONE DMB song.  And is the one in my sad music poll.

    Yes

  • I do like how those types of polls introduces me to new music. I am pretty much all over the place with my music choices and most of my favorite songs are favorites for sentimental reasons, rather than thinking that person/band is the best out there.
