(no subject)
Since I don't post about my life anymore, I figured at least another music survey would prove that I'm still alive. I blame this on the frequency of my visits to Last.fm.
1. What are you listening to right now?
ABBA - Money, Money, Money
2. What song makes you sad?
Any of the last three songs on the Third Eye Blind self-titled album. The Background, Motorcycle Drive-by, God of Wine.
3. What is the most annoying song in the world
50 Cent - In Da Club. I don't have this one available for download, but I think everyone will get over it.
4. Your all time favorite band?
Third Eye Blind still is, I think.
5. Your newly discovered band is?
Hmm..
6. Best female voice?
Imogen Heap, hands down. Also contenders are Christina Scabbia, Dolores O'Riordan, or even Kelly Clarkson.
7. Best male voice?
I love Serj Tankian's voice a lot, actually. Also Eliott Smith and Steve Snere.
8. Music type you find yourself listening to most?
Heh, commercialized pop-punk. I don't know under which category These Arms Are Snakes, Akimbo and Refused fall, but I've been listening to them too.
11. Last gig/concert you went to?
Meh. The Blood Brothers/Minus The Bear/These Arms Are Snakes/Crystal Skulls.
12. Band you find yourself listening to the most right now?
These Arms Are Snakes.
13. Most hated band?
Bad Religion.
14. Song that makes you think?
Music does not inherently make me think. It sometimes facilitates thought, but I can't think of any specific songs that inspire thought.
15. Band that you think the world should love as much as you do?
The Velvet Teen.
19. Can you play a musical instrument?
I can play piano, but stopped doing it regularly a long time ago and I was never very good.
20. Ever been in a mosh pit?
No, and I'm fine with acknowledging that I'm a wuss.
21. Are you in a band?
Nope.
22. If yes, what kind of music does your band play and what is your role in it?
32. What do you think of Classical music?
I'm particularly fond of the cello and, since my dad is such a fan of classical music, I'm pretty unopposed to listening to it. The same applies to opera, and I do like some opera, especially when Maria Callas is singing.
33. What do you think of Country music?
I grew up listening to country and I have fond memories of it. I don't listen to it now, but I don't have any violent opposition to it and I do still enjoy it when I hear country songs that I used to know.
34. What do you think of Death metal?
I won't say that I will never like it, but for the most part the vocals scare the crap out of me. I can't fault a good death metal band just because they're death metal, but I'm not a fan.
37. Do you listen to music in foreign languages?
Yes. I listen to Gaelic and French language music sometimes.
38. What famous musician would you like to fuck!?
Hmm... Judah Nagler isn't famous really but I am pretty damn fond of him.
44. Do you listen to the radio?
Now when I'm in the car I have to, since my iPod is dead. I haven't listened to radio regularly in over a year.
50. Song that describes your life?
Right now I could be cliché and say Fiona Apple - Criminal, but overall I couldn't pin down one song for my whole life.
51. Do you know the names of all the band members that you listen to?
Typically not, but with some bands I do, or at least know a few.
52. Does a musician’s physical attractiveness play a role in the music that you listen to?
I'm so shallow. Yes, yes it does. I got into The Velvet Teen mostly because their lead singer is attractive, and it was seeing music videos for Third Eye Blind that got me into them, as two prime examples. I'm trying to not do that anymore, though, because it is pretty embarrassing.
53. Favourite movie sound track?
Billy Elliot.
56. What do your parents listen to?
My dad has a pretty extensive and bizarre musical collection. At the forefront are classical and opera, but he also listens to bands like ELO, Heart, Queen, ABBA, Enya, Johnny Cash and lots of other random bands.
65. What is in your walkman/discman right now?
Nothing right now. I haven't listened to portable music in a while.
66. How important is your partners taste in music to you?
Well, I essentially worship my boyfriend's extensive knowledge of music, so that's one point for the important side. I think there would be some difficulty if my boyfriend's musical taste was completely removed from mine, but somewhat different tastes are good for expansion.
68. Sex, Drugs and Rock n Roll, you dig?
Not so much. Hearing that phrase kind of gives me the creeps, just because of the sleazy groupie cocaine-snorting Rolling Stones image it creates in my head.
